#317: Live in Anchorage: What It’s Like to Run in…Alaska

Sarah and Molly are the hosts of this episode, the first in a series we’re kicking off, traveling around the U.S. to hear from mother runners about what it’s like to run in their city. The ladies literally go big for this one—Anchorage, Alaska, with bonus points for recording on the summer solstice! The duo sit down (and crack open a cold one) with three runners at Skinny Raven, a super-cool running store. Listen to how Kristin, Mandy, and Karen stay active in the cold, dark winter–then delight in the mania of nearly round-the-clock summer sunshine. Other topics touched upon: dealing with wildlife, bugs, running while pregnant, and the many joys of alpine running. It’s a fun, freewheeling episode!In the intro, Sarah + Molly talk about their impressions of the 49th state—it’s the first time in Alaska for both of them. The first guest joins them on the couch to chat at 13:52.To save $30 on a purchase of AfterShokz Trekz Air or Trekz Titanium headphones, go to amr.aftershokz.com and use code AMR30 at checkout.New Aaptiv members: Save 30% off annual membership by visiting aaptiv.com/AMR30 Learn more about your ad choices.
