Being able to step out of the shower, reach for that jar of pickles on a tall shelf or play with your kids is just as important as being able to run on a trail.

Send us a text#108 - Who do you look up to for motivation in running? Terry Fox is the first person I think of. If you're a Canadian you know all about about. There isn't a Canadian alive who doesn't know who Fox is, he is a greater hero than even Wayne Gretzky, The Great One there. And with good reason. In the cold and dark of winter, it's good to hear about those heroes in history who blazed trails no one had before. Who were not afraid to go it alone. Who knew that failure might happen, but did it anyway. Terry Fox will forever remain one of the mightiest in running. For all links used in this episode and for more information about the Terry Fox Foundation, please visit the website at: www.martharunstheworld.com if you have comments, questions or ideas for future shows, please contact me at: martharunstheworld@gmail.comSupport the showMartha Runs the World websitehttps://www.martharunstheworld.com/Email:martharunstheworld@gmail.comInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/martha_runs_sf/

Send us a text#107 - There were a lot of great challenges that running race companies concocted to keep us runners active and engaged through 2020. One of them was through Coastal Trail Runs. it was the 100/30 Challenge. We runners had to finish 100 miles in 30 days and we'd receive a medal for every 100 miles we finished. Some of us we more than happy to get 100 miles done every month. But there were a few who went over and above. The runner who did the most was Adwait Samant, who blew everyone else out of the water! I was so impressed with his miles total that I knew I wanted him on the show. And he did not disappoint. His story is compelling and inspiring! For all info on this show, including one of Adwait's totals charts, please go to the website: www.martharunstheworld.com if you have any comments, questions or suggestions for future show ideas, email me at: martharunstheworld@gmail.com Support the showMartha Runs the World websitehttps://www.martharunstheworld.com/Email:martharunstheworld@gmai

Send us a text#106 - Every once in a while, I come across a terrific story online that I must share. It was in this way that I knew I wanted to have Carol Patterson on my show. Carol is one of those people who inspires us without even trying. In the piece she wrote for Donner Party Mountain Runners "On Birthdays and the Passage of Time" she talks about how running changes as we get older and how her own running has changed she since just celebrated her 77th birthday. She talks about that and much more on this week's show.

Send us a text#98 - We never know what others are going through. From the outside, they can appear successful, their careers are amazing, materially they have everything they've ever wanted, but inside, their feelings and contentment may be missing. Amanda Webster was successful at everything she did. She was a yoga instructor, a model, she had everything she wanted, but did she? She found herself wanting to end it all, and at the last minute..... well, I'll let her tell you her own story. It's an incredible and inspiring tale of loss and starting over through finding what is truly important. For all links and info talked about in this episode, please visit the show website at: www.martharunstheworld.com for any comments, questions and suggestions for future shows, please email me at: martharunstheworld@gmail.com Support the showMartha Runs the World websitehttps://www.martharunstheworld.com/Email:martharunstheworld@gmail.comInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/martha_runs_sf/
