Sophie Speidel is a lifelong athlete: being a competitor is motivating, rewarding, and fun. But there's a simple fact that comes with aging: our ultimate potentials in speed and strength begin to fade. In a sport like running, where we generally measure getting better as getting faster, how can we adjust to a body that's slowing down and still feel like we're improving?Sophie's journey explores this very question as she takes us through her menopause experiences and how she continues to thrive and achieve as her body ages.Mentioned in this episodeSophie Speidel's writing on Trail Sisters: https://www.trailsisters.net/author/sophie-speidel/Dr. Stacey SimsSelene Yeager and the Hit Play Not Pause podcastBarbara Hannah Grufferman's "Menopause Cheat Sheet"Coach Parry's YouTube channel "The Female Athlete" Coach Parry's "Running Through Menopause" training program Sarah Lavender Smith's blog, "The Runner's Trip"Ways to follow Sophie and Strides Forward OnlineFollow Sophie on Instagram: @sophiespeidelFollow Strides Forward on Instagram and Twitter: @StridesForwardOur Website is stridesforwardpodcast.comWe welcome you to take a (10-min) Listener SurveyWe have merch!
