Hello! Welcome to the Run Eat Repeat podcast… Today I’m talking with Kelly Roberts – creator of ‘Global Sports Bra Squad Day’ which is June 24th! She’s amazing and super open with her journey going from hating running to running marathons to creating a worldwide movement helping people love their bodies. And just a head’s up – Kelly and I are on the same page with most things but have very different opinions on a California institution and it might be a little offensive to some.

Warm Up:

21 Day Stretch Challenge is almost over!! Get in the last few stretches and check in on the @RunEatRepeat Instagram daily update!

The Stretch of the Day is a seated shin stretch… it’s kind of a weird one in that it doesn’t look like a typical stretch but feels good.

Stretch AFTER your run or workout. Be gentle and listen to your body.

Remember – Always consult with your doctor before starting a new diet or exercise program. Stop if there is any pain. Be smart, safe and kind to your body.

 

Now let’s get running with Kelly Roberts…

Kelly Roberts is an inspiration on social media – if you didn’t read her captions you might not know she’s struggled with body image. Then in college her brother passed away very unexpectedly and she shut down not wanting to be social or active and gained a lot of weight. With support of her family, friends and a professor in her nutrition class she lost 75 pounds and got healthy. Eventually she found running – and she shares her training, victories and struggles on her website and podcast. Now she is about to lead the 2nd Global Sports Bra Squad Day and is here to tell us how it all started and how we can participate.

“This Sunday, over 80 cities around the world are hosting Global #SportsBraSquad Day meetups!

Not sure what global #SportsBraSquad day is? It’s a day dedicated to showing the world that strength comes in all shapes, sizes and ages and not JUST that one body type and that twenty something year old we see over and over and over and over and over. “

Awards for this week:

1. OB Tampons – they are the best. I think they’re good for the environment because they don’t have an applicator AND they’re easy to stick in your sports bra or key pocket. Here’s a link to the OB Tampons Multi-Pack with different sizes in one box.

2. Spray sunblock for hard to reach places. This Alba Botanica Spray Sunblock is spf 50 and on sale right now too!

3. Tom’s shoes – I wear them so much I might start running in them!
