She set a personal minimum of one mile per day, creating a “morning-run ritual” that became as natural as brushing her teeth.2️⃣ Resilience and Recovery — Running Through It AllFrom fever and COVID to a badly twisted ankle, Amy never broke her streak. She shares how she ran around her house when sick, jogged in snow wearing ski pants, and once shuffled through hotel parking lots with her foot wrapped tight after injury.3️⃣ Balancing Family, Career, and RunningAs a college vice president and mother of five, Amy’s early-morning runs became her non-negotiable “me time.” What started as family teasing turned into admiration — her children now see her as a model of consistency and self-care.4️⃣ Women in Running — History and EmpowermentInspired by pioneers like Kathrine Switzer (Marathon Woman) and Kara Goucher (The Longest Race), Amy reflects on how far women’s running has come — from exclusion and myths about female fragility to women leading in ultra-distance performance.5️⃣ Mindfulness and Gratitude in Motion“Every run is a gift,” Amy says. She approaches each morning with gratitude, seeing running as both mental reset and spiritual practice — a habit that sustains body and mind alike.💥 Pandemic Origins: From a ten-day c
