Episode 89: Tina Muir on Hypothalamic Amenorrhea, Podcasting, Motherhood, and Running For Real

Tina's Bio: Tina Muir is a former international elite runner for Great Britain and Northern Ireland who shocked the running world by stepping away from the sport at the peak of her career to get her health back from medical malnutrition. Having run a personal best of 2:36 in the marathon just three months before, Tina brought awareness to the issue of amenorrhea, the cessation of menstruation, by sharing her story. Dozens of outlets covered Tina's story, including People magazine, Outside, Runner's World, ESPN, Women's Health, Glamour, and many more. In 2017, Tina was voted one of the 21 women changing the running world for the better by Women's Running magazine, and in 2018, she became the first cover model of a fitness magazine to be featured with a running stroller (and her daughter, Bailey) for Women's Running UK. Tina is a keynote speaker and the host of the Running For Real Podcast, which amassed over 2 million downloads in just over two years. Tina created the Running For Real community, a place for runners to share struggles and support one another through the difficult moments life brings.
