About this episode
Sarah and Dimity enlighten Erica from Covington, Louisiana, about the purpose of a pre-run warm-up and offer some suggestions, including moves from Train Like a Mother Club videos. They counsel new mom Lisa from Minnesota about working back up to a marathon. Dimity offers Amanda in Buck County, Pennsylvania, solid advice about triathlon training for feeling confident on race day. In answering Maureen from Chicago’s question, Coach Dimity says while there is a place for both body-weight exercises (think clamshells and one-legged squats) and using weights to strength train, ultimately the former is better for injury prevention amongst runners.
