In this episode of the Art and Science of Running podcast, we speak with author and ultra runner, Katie Arnold @katiearnold, about love, loss, parenting, and the roles of movement and stillness in the creative process. Katie is the author of Running Home: A Memoir as well as an editor and columnist for Outside Magazine where she writes the popular parenting column, Raising Rippers. In addition to writing, Katie is an accomplished trail and ultra runner. Katie has won the iconic Leadville 100 as well as the multi-day TransRockies Run. Katie does all of this while being a partner, mother, and writing retreat leader. Running Home: A Memoir Jacob Puzey @jacobpuzey met Katie at the TransRockies Run and reached out after reading her book, Running Home: A Memoir. At the time of the interview, Jacob felt like they were able to connect about many of the themes of her book, but it wasn’t until the recent ordeal with his brother, Tommy @tommy_rivs, that he more fully appreciated the toll that it takes on someone when a person that they love is suffering from a distance.
