Dear Runner Bod, – Détails, épisodes et analyse

I am going to share how my season of life & running are changing for me. I don't know how things are going to change after I give birth. Having that unknown, especially as a type A runner, not knowing when I will be able to run again has been hard for me. 

I talk about how life throws things at you, and sometimes you need to take a step back from running. You can feel guilt and shame when you take a step back, but sometimes it is necessary to get excited about running again. I talk about how my relationship with running has changed throughout my life.

I mention the podcast episode with Dr. Victoria, if you want to listen click here.

I am talking about body shaming. I share about some experiences I have had lately with my Instagram reels. I have a lot to say about this and how it's so unfair that women's bodies are so sexualized and objectified. It sucks. I share how I am processing this and how it's okay to feel two things at once, to be angry at your body and at society for thinking it's okay to comment on others bodies.
