Running is a beautiful sport, and we all runners swear by how it helps us. But we sometimes take it too seriously.
Running is a beautiful sport, and we all runners swear by how it helps us. But we sometimes take it too seriously. Overly obsessed with paces, getting stressed by upcoming races, irregular sleep cycles to accommodate the early morning workouts, constant barrage of injuries and more. What once supposed to help us to get fit, healthy and enjoyable, becomes quite the opposite.
In this episode of “World of Running,” our host Aditi Pandya talks with Tina Muir and delves deep into how to run sustainably
Tina Muir is the founder and CEO of Running for Real; host of the award-winning podcast of the same name and co-host of Running Realized; a mother of two; and a former elite runner turned sustainability advocate. An ardent environmentalist, she has worked with the United Nations, as well as many races in the running industry, including New York and Chicago marathons on their sustainability initiatives. Through her podcast and social media presence, she starts conversations and shares resources on sustainability, climate change, and how individuals can make a positive difference in their own lives. Her book, Becoming a Sustainable Runner, co-written with Zoë Rom, merges runners’ passion for their sport with their concern for their health, their community, and the environment. Tina is the first elite athlete to openly discuss having amenorrhea, Tina has become an advocate for others suffering from RED-S/REDs.
Tina’s book, Becoming a Sustainable Runner is available on amazon.in
