Event Description: This special event is geared to women (and men!) who love to run. The evening begins with a light supper followed by inspiring conversation with well-known women in the running world. This year, we are thrilled that we have Dimity MacDowell, co-author of Run Like a Mother, and then Train Like a Mother and the new-this-year Tales from Another Mother Runner. All three books include witty essays from other mother runners about how running helped various authors get through divorce, battle depression, discover joy, cope with getting older and make lifelong friends. You’ll find lots of real-life wisdom and anecdotes from women of all paces and places interspersed with make-you-laugh stories and insightful advice. gno_dimity_signingDimity McDowell and her co-author, Sarah Bowen Shea, developed Another Mother Runner (AMR) to be a place where women runners (and walkers-aiming-to-run) can find a (gentle) kick out the door, connect with like-minded women, and get support in spades. Dimity and Sarah also have a free, weekly podcast, which is like a chatty running partner who will even keep talking on the uphills! Dimity has spoken at numerous race expos and events, including the Twin Cities Marathon, Nike Women's Marathon, and Fleet Feet annual convention. A mom of two children (and one fur-baby), Dimity and her family live in Denver. She's run two marathon, unless you count the 26.2 miles she covered at the end of Ironman Couer d'Alene in 2013, then her tally rises to three. Seats are limited. Gather your group and get your tickets today!
