If it scares you, run toward it. That’s the advice I received from today’s guest, Amanda Rasmussen. Amanda doesn’t just dish out this advice; she lives it. Amanda is a mom, hospice healthcare provider, runner, ultramarathoner, and an all-around inspiring individual. A few years ago, Amanda decided to make some changes in her life. She was on a mission to get healthy and in the process, she ignited a fire for running. She qualified for Boston at her first marathon, but her true love is on the trails and running ultras. Just a couple of weeks ago, she ran 151 miles on muddy and difficult terrain. I strongly recommend following Amanda on Instagram. She is @runnermomamanda and I have a link to that in my show notes. I spent quite some time looking at her posts and I found so many nuggets of wisdom. I also found a poem she wrote that I love—it’s about her feet! We may lose toenails, but as Amanda says, those feet carry us lots of miles.   This episode is sponsored by Ucan.

#249: Amanda Rasmussen -- Journey From Non-Runner to a Tough 150 Miler

In 2017 Amanda came to a point in her life where something had to change.  She was unhappy with where she was in life, but even more unhappy with WHO she was.  It was time to let her potential out and become who she was meant to be.  She quit smoking and drinking and joined a gym.  Amanda dove into a healthy lifestyle without looking back.  In just 7 months, she lost 100 pounds and discovered her love for running!  She was born for it!  Amanda qualified for Boston on her first Marathon, then found the trails and ultramarathon, and has lived in that world ever since.  She's changed so much physically and mentally from 4 years ago and is excited to see what new adventures are in her future.
