E125 Sarah M: Running and Eating Disorders

Sarah grew up in Northern Wisconsin and ran throughout school, eventually earning a scholarship to Bradley University where she competed in cross country, indoor track, and outdoor track. She was very successful both as a runner and academicaly, but also suffered from an eating disorder that plagued her throughout her time there. After seeking treatment, she started blogging about it (https://www.theprosiest.com) and it's evolved to be about mental health, running, writing, and relationships. She also writes and performs poetry, and just published a book called "I Like It Cuz It's Pink."

E15 Meghan: Walking away from the Olympics

When Megan was 19 years old she was on track to make the national rowing team when her coach told her she would be a better rower if she just weighed less. She trained more, ate less, and watched her body break down until her ribs broke under the stress. Somewhere along the line she realized this wasn’t how she wanted to live, and chose to forgo her dream of the Olympics.
