Many Happy Miles: XC 101
Manage episode 436404553 series 2938377
If you’re like listener Kate Coscarelli, who has a kid taking on cross country this fall—or maybe you ran XC yourself and you’re nostalgic for those crisp days of racing through fallen leaves or freshly cut grass—this episode is for you. The hosts chat about all things XC, in a lively two-part conversation told from dual perspectives: The athlete’s and the coaches’. You’ll hear:
* Recent college grad and top distance runner Maddie Mooney shares what athletes need from parents, covering everything from post-practice chats to what to say as you cheer on the course;
* How to avoid overstepping as a parent of an athlete;
* XC coaches Christy Diller and Sarah Wassner Flynn (who switches from podcast host to guest in this segment!) offer the basics and benefits of the sport, plus coaching strategies, injury prevention, and more.
If all of this XC talk gets you inspired for an active autumn, join us for Fall Into Fitness, a six-week program focuses on the three key pieces of complete fitness: cardio, strength, and mobility. We start on September 9 and there’s still time to sign up!
