How To Actually Chase Big Goals as a Mother Runner

There definitely can be too much of a good thing when it comes to running and before you know it, your healthy obsession has turned into another injury.

But is there really such a thing as balance when you are chasing big goals?

Let’s find out with Whitney Heins of The Mother Runners at https://www.themotherrunners.com/

We go over:

• The good and bad side of always striving for more

• How ignoring her body and pushing too hard backfired, and

• How doing less is actually working better and making her happier

It’s always a great conversation with Whitney because we have so much in common and while she’s much faster than most moms, including me, she’s so relatable.

RECENT REVIEWS:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Perfect timing 😊

“I am a listener from Asia and I stumbled upon your podcast a year ago. I have been running for a few years now but just recently shifted to a plant based diet. I am so happy I found this podcast. It really helped me a lot and up to now, I’m still learning every episode. It has been tough having this lifestyle, especially where I am from where the resources are very meager. Thank you so much and I always look forward to weekly episodes. Keep it up, I hope you know how much help and inspiration you are able to give 💯”
