Description
This episode is with Bermuda-based ultra runner and coach Sara Hole. Despite being a newer runner, Sara recently finished her first ultra marathon, calling herself a “shot shooter” and crediting her coach Megan Roche and Team SWAP. While running is a relatively new passion, Sara recalls being artistic and creative for as long as she can remember, describing herself as a content creator, thoughtful, caring and conscientious person.
In this episode we talk about:
-from unathletic to ultra runner in 2 years: catching the running bug
-how running has benefited Sara’s self-confidence and whole life
-going all in on coaching: advice for beginner runners
-reframing ADHD as a superpower
-team SWAP: coaching, community, cheerleading
