  • Running reflections from a genuine, real mom.

    As a non-traditional mother runner, I relate so much to the way that Whitney interacts with other mamas in her podcast. It’s not just about running - it captures so much about life and parenting and the journey of being a runner, which is really what I’m able to relate most to these days. Plus the conversations aren’t scripted. They’re organic and natural, so I enjoy listening! And I am able to take some other mama’s mindsets and habits to help me on my own journey.
