What if running could be the ultimate antidote to life's challenges? Meet Erin and Stephanie, two incredible women who defy the odds by lacing up their running shoes even in the face of cancer. Their stories of grit and humor are nothing short of inspiring, as they share how they've managed to run marathons amidst chemotherapy and surgeries. This episode isn't just about resilience; it's about connecting through the sport we love and finding strength in the shared mantra: "FU cancer!"
After talking with Erin and Stephanie we turn to three college friends turned avid runners, Natalie, Kaitlin, and Hannah, and started a running podcast of their own. The Stride Sisters share their stories weekly about running and, especially, running at Disney - a topic to which we can certainly relate.
Our conversation extends to the delightful news of the Fluffy Fizzies relaunch and the entrepreneurial spirit of sisters Michelle and Pam, whose passion for business has spanned over two decades.
In the Race Report spotlight, the mother-daughter team of Julie and Emmy join us to talk about the inaugural running of the Every Woman's Marathon. No less than 15 Rise and Run friends completed this race, and for more than half of them, it was their first marathon. I hope we don't wear out the PR bell.
In the Race Report, we celebrate the diversity of our running community, with race reports spanning the globe—from Boise to New Zealand. As we wrap up, the call to action is simple: join us for our next Zoom meetup and keep the running spirit alive, even as the training stakes rise. Whether you're a seasoned marathoner or a joyful walker, there's a place for you in our community.
