ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Hi. My name is Sonia Rita. I'm a two-time marathoner with a few half marathons and more 5ks than I can count sprinkled in, a mom, a wife, an overthinker, and a whole lot of other things. I'm fueled by carbs, coffee, "I love you's" from my little one, and of course optimism.
But "the why" behind my fitness journey is the sweet spot where we can connect, and through my podcast, share inspirational conversations with every day runners like myself and others in wellness about finding optimism despite challenges.
