In S3Ep4 of the PRP, Adam chit chats with life long runner, passionate public health researcher and mama bear extraordinaire Erica Solway who has been preparing for the A2Zukey Marathon Relay on Saturday June 10th, 2023. One of Erica’s closest running cronies, distinguished OBGYN and fellow mama bear, Sam Kempner, joins the show to offer her take on all things Erica, life, and running.
The gals open up about their relationship with the sport and discuss how their priorities with running have evolved over the years. Whether they’ve been busy with education, balancing careers, family, or just life in general the two reflect on the fact that running has cemented itself as a true pillar of wellness in each of their daily lives. Erica then sheds light on her career journey and provides elegant advice about trusting yourself, knowing your priorities, and not being afraid to follow your dreams. Never be afraid to reach out to those who inspire you and if you want truly want something in life - go get it! You’ll never find out what could happen if you never muster the courage to take a shot.
Does Erica love green nanners?? Wait, wait, wait… how many times have these ladies collectively run around the globe?! Why is it a good idea to leave Sam alone when she whips out her Chemex? Podcast vs Audio Book? Speed Skating vs Figure Skating? Where was Erica throwing dance parties in High School and who exactly was she inviting?! We talking UofM XC?! Michiganders for Sanders?! How on earth did Sam injure her cheeks this year at the Boston Marathon?! What the hell is Erica up to on Craigslist?? Flamingos 'n Striders 'n Brittney, oh my!!
