On our latest Interview episode of Bad Boy Running, Jody and David speak to Alicia Vargo. Alicia put her athletic career on hold for six long years, choosing instead to focus on her growing family. Now, she's back on the racing circuit, juggling her training schedule with the responsibilities of being a mother to four children.  Alicia’s journey is one of perseverance and strength, both physical and emotional. Her world was shattered when her husband tragically passed away during the 2008 Olympic trials marathon, but Alicia found solace in the trail running community and used her love for the sport as a way to heal. Not only did she return to competitive running, but she qualified for the World Finals in the Golden Trail series and secured a top 10 ranking. Alicia’s story is a testament to the power of resilience, and she offers valuable insights into the difficulties of postpartum fitness and the unique challenges faced by women in sports.  In this episode, we explore Alicia's relationship with running and how it has evolved over time. We delve into her future plans, which include using uphill skiing to enhance her pelvic stability, and her excitement about returning to the Golden Trail Series. Through all this, Alicia exemplifies how to maintain balance in life, even in the face of loss and adversity.  DriSeats.com If you're fed up with leaving your car seats muddy, damp and smelly after sitting in them after your run, check out DriSeats range of car seat covers, designed specifically for runners.
