She and husband Anthony Bailey own and tirelessly manage Run for Grace, a non-profit that raises money in their neighborhood to stop homelessness and other worthy causes. They are also very good videographers. I first became aware of Jen through a video they posted called "Big Girls Can Run Too". I'll post a link of that on my website. All links and information for this episode can be found on my website: www.martharunstheworld.com if you have any comments, questions or suggestions 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#102 - 2020 was a dumpster fire in many ways, but it will also stand out as a year when many runners chose to use as a time to break records. FKTs fell like houses of cards. I go over this and things we might look forward to in 2021. So, let's celebrate this year being over and hopefully a better year ahead! For links to the information discussed, go to www.martharunstheworld.com for comments, questions and to share your trail name, email 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/

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/

Send us a text#91 - We find inspiration in many places. I love watching the top runners battle the elements and their own wills to finish strong. But I also love hearing stories of every day runners who battled through intense and life-changing illnesses or injuries and kept going. Todd Glieden is one of those runners. He loves tough, long ultra-races, especially with lots of elevation. It hasn't been an easy road for him to get there, but his story of never giving up his positivity and determination is one you will want to hear. for all information on the show and links to Patreon and all places to hear MRTW, please visit the website at: www.martharunstheworld.com for comments, questions or for suggestions for future shows, please email 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/
