I’d heard about the book Run Like A Mother and had been meaning to check it out. Got to read a few pages with the “Look Inside” feature on Amazon and I was hooked. I quickly downloaded the book to my Kindle (love that instant gratification!) and started reading. I was not disappointed!
I love that I walked away feeling like I know Dimity and Sarah – like we’d been hanging out with a cup of coffee (or maybe I should say on a long run) while they imparted all of this great wisdom to this newbie runner! No subject is off-limits! It’s funny, intelligent and very real. I love the quotes from the collection of mom runners – very inspiring and easy to relate to, whether you’re running your first 5k or 2nd marathon.
I now also enjoy the RLAM blog and Facebook page , and know I’ll go back to this book again and again for a good laugh, a useful tip and some always appreciated motivation!
Great review! I enjoyed it as well!
loved that book!
Thanks for stopping by my blog Michelle! I will most definitely check this book out. I look forward to following your journey. Happy running. 😀 Lucy
I had dinner with Sarah when she was in town, she is GREAT in real life too. Glad you liked the book.
Michelle–
Thank you so much for the favorable review. I love it when people say they know Dimity and I after reading the book as we aimed to be honest and forthright.
Not sure what part of Massachusetts you are in, but wanted to let you know I’m going to be reading in East Sandwich at Titcomb’s on Monday, July 12. It would be great if you could attend–there’s reading, then group run, then dinner at nearby pub afterward!
Many happy miles,
SBS
Sarah – thanks for stopping by my blog! You’ll be a little over an hour away but if my hub’s schedule will cooperate I’d love to be there!
