But at 4:30 or 5am, she's a runner! (If you live in AZ, you know.) Ashley recently ran the Eugene Marathon (2024), her fourth in just a couple of years. We connected to talk about all things running, as runners will do. We love sharing stories of runners who come to the sport in a variety of ways, and from a variety of sports (like dance and cheerleading, in this case!). And we love hearing how they find their way in training for big goals while building community, relationships, and time for themselves. Ashley's running story touches on all of the above!

Episode SummaryMakenna Myler, while pregnant with her first child, ran a mile in five minutes and 25 seconds— just 10 days before she gave birth to her daughter in October. Her husband, Mike, created a TikTok post that accumulated over 6 million views. Her story jumped to numerous other news sites around the world...and she just did it again, right before this recording---running a 5:17 just days before she's set to have her second child.The following spring after having her first, she started entering races to qualify for the Olympic trials. At the end of May, she finally qualified with a time of 32:03.62 in a 10,000-meter race in Oregon. Her time was almost three minutes faster than her best collegiate time.[2]In the trials on June 26, 2021—seven months after having her first baby—she placed 14th out of 44 runners in a highly competitive 10,000-meter race. Although she didn't go on to compete in the Olympics, she signed a contract to run professionally for Asics.In her debut as a pro runner, she ran the Deseret News half marathon in 1:09.54, beating the old course record set by fellow BYU standout Sarah Sellers. Makenna competed in track and field for Brigham Young University from 2011 to 2014.Episode SponsorRunner Click Pro – https://pro.runnerclick.com/Key Takeaways00:58 – Whitney Heins welcomes Makenna Myler to the show to share her running story, including how she ran a mile in five minutes and forty-five seconds while 9-months pregnant14:17 – Makenna reflects on her very first ‘Pregnant Mile'20:09 – The genesis of The Naked Myler21:45 – Key running lessons Makenna has learned throughout the years27:53 – Changes Makenna has made that have helped her with running through her cycle33:35 – The importance of showing up35:28 – The ‘Internal Governor,' explained41:45 – Makenna reflects on her experience and the realities of running while pregnant51:16 – Makenna shares the goals she has for her website54:21 – Whitney thanks Makenna for joining the show and sharing her storyTweetable Quotes“So, we did the [pregnant] mile. It wasn't really planned that well. I was jumping in the middle of this guy's three-mile tempo. It wasn't an official race. He was even late because he was trying to do a run before I even did the mile. And then he came, filmed it, thought it was funny so he tried to make a funny video to show our friends and family, and posted it on TikTok. And then half a day later he said, ‘You have half a million views and ESPN wants to post your video.'” (16:44) (Makenna)“I think what hit me the most was the self-deprecating comments that happened so much. And that's why we actually started The Naked Myler, which kinda led into this female-running guide for women because so many people - and especially women - were like, ‘Wow, I can't even get off the couch and I'm a terrible person because I can't run a five minute mile.' I really wanted to help people and help them connect happiness with running.” (19:05) (Makenna)“Now, we have the Naked Myler blog, which is a resource of women - four females - who are running through all things pregnancy, periods, all the hormonal changes to help them navigate how to do that with their cycles.” (20:34) (Makenna)“First, just mentally understanding that was a huge game changer. I would still show up for the same workout, but I would have to understand, ‘Ok, my body is not responding today. I'll cut the workout in half. That is ok and I'm not going to let that drag me down or ruin my training. I'm just going to continue on.'” (27:58) (Makenna)“I think it's also important to distinguish between adaptations and racing. Because, to me, training is where you're trying to get your body to adapt to stimulus. And the race is more of the

In this episode we speak with Sarah Sellers -a nurse anesthetist whose surprise 2nd place finish at the 2018 Boston Marathon made her an overnight sensation! Plus Coach Angie answers a listener question about blood donation and running.
This is the first of several post-U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials episodes coming your way this week. It was such an honor to co-host a live show after the race alongside Carrie Tollefson and Meb Keflezighi — in front of a 400-person audience! After an inspiring opening speech by UCAN President and CEO Shoba Murali and a few remarks from Meb, we recapped the race with Carrie (who was the official race announcer) and Meb (the official race starter). Then, we welcomed seven UCAN athletes — Sarah Sellers, Taylor Ward, Dawn Grunnagle, Tyler Pennel, Andrea Toppin, Anita Perez, and Jocelyn Todd — who shared their stories from the day. Some had breakthrough races (a PR for Sarah Sellers!), while others had challenging days on the course. All of their stories were honest, uplifting, and relatable, and I'm so grateful for everything they shared. Thank you to UCAN for sponsoring this episode of Ali on the Run Show!

"When I finally got to come back to running, my number one goal was no longer [to] run as fast as I can—my number one goal was, 'I don't want to have to give this up long-term again.' And so that was motivation to have proper nutrition and to realize if I have to be five to ten pounds heavier than what I thought my goal weight was, if that's keeps me healthy, then it's worth it." I'm excited to welcome my third returning guest back to the show this week: Sarah Sellers. Sellers, who finished second at the 2018 Boston Marathon, will race this year's Chicago Marathon on October 13. We recorded this podcast in front of a live audience back back in early July at the Sports Basement in San Francisco. Sellers and I spoke for about 35 minutes before we opened it up to audience Q&A. I really enjoyed this one—we touched a on a lot of topics we didn't cover the first time around back in Episode 28—including her decision to run Chicago this fall and what she's changing about her approach going into the race; we also talked about avoiding “the comparison trap” and having the confidence in herself to make adjustments to her training when necessary; we got into the steps she's taken to stay healthy and keep her body strong, her renewed focus on nutrition and being at a healthy weight versus her fastest weight, how she's learning to prioritize longterm health over short term success, and a lot more.

When it comes to ambitious running challenges there aren't many greater than running across the United States. For Molly Cuevas, an All-American college field hockey player, this challenge was quite literally the beginning of her running career. Molly has been a high level athlete, first in soccer and later in field hockey, since she as little. But, she hadn't started running until she dreamed of running across the country to support others. Motivated by her belief in the Challenged Athletes Foundation, Molly trained for a year before starting her epic run. In this episode you can hear about what drove Molly, how she was able to persist, and all that goes into this challenge. You can learn more about Molly at https://milesbymolly.com.

Margaret Spring has been a dedicated runner since she was kid chasing after her oldest brother. These days, people are busy trying to chase her. This remarkable woman picked up trail running five years ago. She fell head-over-heals for the sport while trying to make sure she didn't do that, literally, on the rocky and challenging downhills. A few weeks ago Margaret has a breakout performance by finishing third in her age group at the Leadville Marathon, sharing the podium with Kara Goucher. Margaret isn't just fast and tough, she is running for a purpose far greater than herself. Learn more about this, and many other topics, in this episode.

Running at an elite level is hard enough when everything goes right and luck is on your side. Very few people get to that level even in the best of circumstances. For Molly Bookmyer, her running career could never be described in those terms. She has undergone two brain surgeries, hospitalized after having a seizure on a treadmill, and helped nurse her husband back to health after he was diagnosed with testicular cancer a week after they returned from their honeymoon. In the face of all that, Molly has earned an Olympic Trials qualifying time in the marathon and placed third this spring in the U.S. 25k championships.

The question on everyone’s lips was ‘Who is Sarah Sellers?’. The American beat the odds to finish second in the 2018 Boston Marathon.

Carrie welcomes Sarah Sellers back to the show! In this episode, they talk about her (not so perfect) buildup and race at the 2018 TCS New York City Marathon, how life has changed since placing second to Des Linden in Boston, and her life outside of running. Show notes for this episode can be found at ctollerun.com.
"My goal isn't to garner more media attention or to shock the world or to even top Boston. My goal is to keep the love of the sport, to stay healthy, and to continue chipping away at times because ultimately I think [that] kind of like Des Linden has shown the world, if you are able to stay healthy and train consistently for a long period of time, that's where you get really good." Stoked to have Sarah Sellers on the podcast this week! The 27-year-old Sellers, who works as a nurse anesthetist in Arizona, was the surprise second-place finisher at April's Boston Marathon, running a personal-best of 2:44:04 in cold, windy, wet conditions. Sellers, who took home $75,000 for her efforts, didn't realize she was the runner-up until after she crossed the finish line. In this conversation, we talked a bit about what's changed for her since Boston while looking ahead to her next big race, the New York City Marathon on November 4. We also discussed whether or not she's felt an added layer of pressure after her breakthrough performance at Boston, how she's learned to move on from bad races, where her mental toughness comes from, injuries and the changes she's made to her training and lifestyle in order to stay healthy, defining herself as more than just a "runner," balancing training at a high level with working a demanding hospital job, the importance of the support system she surrounds herself with, and a lot more.

“I’m still not sure which was crazier: me finishing second, or the response to me finishing second.” — Sarah Sellers After the 2018 Boston Marathon, everyone wanted to meet second place finisher Sarah Sellers.

Ep 152 - Chocolate Cake (Sarah Sellers)
This week's Nurse of the week: Sarah Sellers, full-time nurse, finishes second in Boston marathon. 26-year-old, finished with a final time of 2:44:04, trailing only Desiree Linden, a two-time Olympian. Weekly Nursing News Updates With Q The Nurse: https://goo.gl/Vzqkko
Writer, coach, consultant and Wild Woman, Mary Daniels, is our guest this week. She talks about the congruence between people/organisations with the vision to do good and create change in the world and their values and behaviour. In the Show… Judith’s car has sailed through the MoT but she discovered some bad small business news down at the garage while she was there. She reflects on Twitter in the week of her 10th Twitterversary. Nicola’s enjoyed another sociable week of dining out, Reading Club, Mothers’ Day pampering, ouzo and octopus and a birthday party. She has her eye on a chap who is both taciturn and saturnine and has his own boat AND his own taverna! What’s Fuelled Their Fire? Judith’s fire was fuelled by last Friday’s recording session with upcoming podcast guests 9-12 - Rhys, Richard, Alice and Paula. Nicola’s spoken to Justin Brooke about her Facebook Ads account suspension and he’s helped her to rationalise it unemotionally and to find the workaround. Focus of the Week: Mary Daniels – Normal People, Noble Causes Mary's talk is about the dangers of not knowing who you are and the congruence between people/organisations with the vision to do good and create change in the world with their values and behaviour. Noble causes are served by perfectly normal human beings who behave in exceptional ways and this isn't limited to organisations either, it can apply to us working at home alone. Ask yourself about your daily habits: Am I being true to who I am? Would anyone looking in from the outside know that? What compromises do I make, how do I let my values slip, how often do I evaluate that so I can bring myself back on track? Mary’s first book is published by Hay House and called Wild Awakening, and she’s working on her next. Find out more at MaryDaniels.co.uk Words of the Week Nicola picks Leisure and Judith goes for Dreams. Project Updates Own It! The Podcast’s download numbers continue to impress both Nicola and Judith and their best guess is that it is a second spike attributable to Radio Public who reward podcasters who send them traffic. Nicola’s writing a sales letter, and her 30 Day Challenge people continue to get excellent results and ROI. One of them was also featured by Radio Public in their Indies to Watch spotlight. Judith continues to make good progress with her Creating the Impossible Challenge, her Blogfest. Now all 52 blog posts are published and all 52 podcasts too. Who or What’s Impressed? Nicola is impressed (again) by Iain Banks, having re-read The Wasp Factory in her Reading Club. Both Judith and Nicola had read it before but since it was published in 1984, neither of them can remember it! Judith is impressed by three women – Sarah Sellers who finished second in the Boston Marathon, Tammie Jo Shults the pilot who landed the South West Airlines plane which lost an engine mid-flight and Doreen Lawrence who never gave up hope of achieving justice for her son, Stephen.

Today I have the women’s second place finisher of the Boston Marathon on the show! Sarah Sellers grabbed second place in the women’s field on Monday coming in as an... The post Episode 114: Sarah Sellers appeared first on Lindsey Hein.
In this episode, we recap an epic day at the Boston Marathon, featuring discussion on Desi, Yuki, Shalane, Molly, Sarah Sellers, and all of the players. Then, we give our preview and predictions on an absolutely stacked London field. Will Kipchoge maintain his dominance or could Bekele or Farah unseat him? And, on the women's side, will Mary Keitany go for the untouchable Paula Radcliffe mixed competition record? Enjoy!
“I think that’s what unites us as runners — we’re all trying to overcome excuses and doubts to get out there.” —Sarah Sellers “Who is Sarah Sellers?” That’s the question everyone was asking after the Tucson, AZ runner finished second at the 2018 Boston Marathon. Sarah isn’t a professional runner. She doesn’t have a sponsor. And she paid her own Boston Marathon entry fee. But on a brutally rainy and windy day in Boston, the 26-year-old nurse anesthetist ran a 2:44.04 — good enough to land her in the spot behind winner Desi Linden. Sarah had no idea she finished second (and, in doing so, nabbed a cool $75,000 prize), and when we recorded this episode just 48 hours after the race, she was still processing the results. Enjoy as she breaks down every detail from before, during, and after the race — including the surreal moment when she passed Shalane Flanagan! (And fun fact: Boston was only Sarah’s second marathon ever!) What you’ll get on this episode: Sarah shares how she’s feeling 48 hours after placing second at the Boston Marathon (1:30) What Sarah’s Boston buildup was like, and how she balances high-mileage training with a demanding full-time job (4:20) The very cute story of how Sarah met her husband, Blake (8:00) How working long days helped prepare Sarah for Marathon Monday (8:45) Whether Sarah ever considered dropping out on race day (9:45) Sarah’s unexpected pre-race detour (10:00) Sarah shares her pre-race goals and the weather factors she dreads the most (11:35) What it was like starting with the elite field (13:00) Sarah breaks down the race from the soaking start to that triumphant finish (16:10) What it was like passing Shalane Flanagan (19:00) How Sarah found out she finished in second place (20:45) How Sarah plans to spend her $75,000 winnings (26:00) The moment that stands out as the ultimate high point from Sarah’s Boston Marathon experience (27:00) What’s next?

Jojo and Kevin chat after a historic day in Boston and discuss Desiree Linden becoming the first American woman since 1985 to win the race, Yuki Kawauchi's surprise victory, the incredible top-five finishes from Sarah Sellers and Shadrack Biwott and the horrible weather that turned the race upside down.
Jacoby Elsbury hurt again and Yanks only owe him $68M for next three years. What a bargain. Pacman and Freddie Roach done after 16 years together and Roach had to find out online. Classy. Giants and Jets have 9 days and counting til the NFL draft. The suspense is killing me.
Wow, what a day! History was made when Michigan's own Desiree Linden, a 34-year-old runner who trains with Hanson-Brooks Original Distance Project in Rochester Hills and lives in Charlevoix, was the first woman to cross the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Her epic victory marked the first time an American woman has won this race since 1985. The first in 33 years! Des also demonstrated incredible sportsmanship when she slowed to make sure friend Shalane Flanagan (a fellow 2016 U.S. Olympic team member) was OK after she stopped for about 13 seconds to use the bathroom near the race's halfway mark. Des, the two-time Olympian and 2011 Boston runner-up, pulled away at the end of Heartbreak Hill to finish in 2 hours, 39 minutes, 54 seconds. That was more than four minutes better than second-place finisher Sarah Sellers, one of seven Americans in the top 10. "I'm thrilled. I'm exhausted. I left it all out there. Now I'm ready to warm up," Linden told CBS Boston. "It hurts right now, but it's a perfect day for me. This is a grinder's day. That's why I keep showing up here, and I think that's why I have success here is because I can kind of tough it out through anything. On this short-and-sweet MRG update episode (recorded a few days pre-Boston), Heather shares details of exciting things happening with Michigan Runner Girl, including having Des Linden be part of the upcoming 3rd Annual Michigan Runner Girl Spring Getaway on May 4-6 in Traverse City. Lots more cool stuff shared during this update show! (Hint: new web site, Gazelle Girl info, fresh MRG designs!)
