Mini Episode 2: Are you Team Road or Team Trail?

Mini Episode 2: Are you Team Road or Team Trail?

Author: The Bluegrass BAMR Podcast December 20, 2019 Duration: 30:36
Can you guess if Bluegrass BAMR is Team Road or Team Trail?   She has been thinking a lot about her running journey...not only the past but what the future will look like, including race goals for next year. In talking with other people about their 2020 goals, she notices that many runners tend to identify as road runners or trail runners. Sometimes the conversation turns to if/why a person can love one over the other; can they love both the same etc....so, Stephanie came up with a list of pros/cons for both trail and road running as she explores her own running "identity".  You will also hear why other listeners might prefer one over the other (thanks to everyone who called in to share their thoughts)!  At the end of the episode, you'll find out is the Bluegrass BAMR prefers roads or trails.  Enjoy this fun bonus episode and don't forget to leave her a message on whether you love road or trail running more!

There's a particular kind of energy found on the roads and trails of Kentucky, often powered by someone balancing miles with motherhood. The Bluegrass BAMR Podcast taps directly into that current, sharing voices from the heart of this community. BAMR, standing for Bad Ass Mother Runner, is more than an acronym; it's the shared identity of women who lace up their shoes amidst the beautiful chaos of daily life. Each conversation in this podcast unfolds like a long run with a friend, covering the gritty, joyful, and sometimes messy reality of pursuing fitness while raising a family. You'll hear from runners across the state and occasionally beyond, not just about personal records or training plans, but about the support systems that make it possible-partners, coaches, fellow parents, and the inner resolve that gets them out the door. These are stories of resilience, small victories, and the collective power found when mothers run. Tune in for honest talk that celebrates the strength in every stride, proving that the journey is always better with company. This podcast is for anyone who finds their sanctuary on the move.
