On this episode we talk with Heidi Strickler, a dietitian who checked herself into eating disorder treatment in 2020 (at Opal) after years of struggling and running through it. Heidi planned on being a collegiate soccer player but transitioned to Track and Field, and then Cross Country, and has been a competitive and accomplished runner ever since. She talks about the many years of work she has done to untie her identity from her achievements in running, and find ways to play in the mountains, have fun, and be out there for the joy of it.  Find Heidi at @hstrickler_sportsrd on Instagram.  The Lane 9 Project is working to reduce REDS and improve menstrual health for female-bodied athletes at all levels of sport.
