CleanA Run down Memory Lane | The mother runners reflect on their salad days of runningfrom Dimity's first sprint (in pursuit of a band hat) to Sarah discovering sports in college as an alternative to fraternity-house debauchery. They laugh over Dimity's failed celebratory cheer in Central Park during the 1997 New York City Marathon, as well as Sarah's inability to come up with a single standout race moment during her 30's. This podcast is heavy on chitchat and laughter, light on advice. | 2/23/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanLady Doc: An OB/GYN Gives Advice for Active Moms | Sarah and Dimity talk with Dr. Amanda Hurtubise, an OB/GYN in Port Huron, Michigan, who they found through her informed, insightful comments on their Facebook page. This mom of three and beginning-again runner quickly dubs this show about the fallout of running, addressing TMI topics like vaginal prolapse, urinary incontinence, and risk of infection from hanging out in sweaty workout wear. The good doctor also talks about running during pregnancy. The show's highlight, though, is Dimity oversharing about her shaving habits. Talk about TMI! | 2/9/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanTips for Newbie--and Returning InjuredRunners | Whether you recently took up running or are coming back to our beloved sport after some time off, Dimity and Sarah dish out loads of advice you need to know. Dimity is right there with you, staring down yet another return to running after an injury (or two). The mother runners talk about the importance of not comparing yourself to anyone else, incorporating walking breaks, focusing on distance not speed, and finding a running buddy. And the ladies tell you why they envy your fresh, only-just-begun slate. | 1/26/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanGoal Setting, Goal Keeping | Go for goals: Dimity and Sarah eschew the word resolutions, preferring instead to talk about New Year's goals. The mother runners impart advice and insight about making goalsset the bar high, but not too lofty--and attaining them. They talk about the importance of having a contingency plan for when life backfires on you and your planned workout. Along the way, Sarah nearly laughs herself silly, and Dimity tosses out an award-winning array of pithy aphorisms. (Sarah must be rubbing off on her!) | 1/12/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanWe're Just Full of Answers:Another Q&A Podcast | As journalists, we're usually the ones asking questions. But we like the tables being turned and having other mothers pry us for info. In this podcast, we clue you in on how to do speedwork as a newbie; how to maintain your spirit when you're injured; how to balance proper fueling against fears of weight gain; and how to keep your running group from falling apart during the winter.

We answer an array of questions from our Facebook community, from how to find a best running buddy to getting your kids involved with our beloved sport to whether you should train for a big race while trying to get knocked up. Along the way, Dimity and SBS ho-ho-ho at themselves and each other. *If you're digging our podcasts, we'd be super-grateful if you'd take a minute (because we *know* you have so many to spare!) to write a review on iTunes.

CleanShoe Business: Find Your Perfect Running Shoe | Let's start from the ground up: Unless you're jumping on the barefoot movement, one of the two must-haves for mother runners is running shoes (the other is a sports bra). While Dimity and Sarah consider themselves shoe-geeks (well, SBS does anyway), on this show, they brought on a true professional, Sonya Estes, owner of Runners Roost in Lakewood, Colorado, to talk pronation, cushioning, stability, and all things footwear-related to help guide you to your perfect pair. | 12/1/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanPost-race Recovery | Congratulations, you've crossed the finish line! Now what? Post-race recovery is the oft-overlooked part of a race plan, yet it's as important to your overall running health as training. After walking you through the steps of a reverse taper, Sarah and Dimity discuss how soon to sign up for another race as well as how to get over the post-race blues. Go ahead, wear your finisher's medal while you listenyou earned it. | 11/14/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanDoes size matter? | Bart Yasso in the house! Dimity and Sarah knew there's no one better than Runner's World Chief Running Officer, and general race expo bon vivant, to debate the pros and cons of of big race versus smaller race, so the gals brought their bud Bart on to chat. They let Bart lead the conversation, and it ends with the gals getting a little choked up and teary-eyed. In a word: acceptance. | 11/3/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Plus, laugh along as the gals throw out enough 5-dollar words to pay a race entry fee. | 10/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanRunners gotta have a race goal | Gotta get a goal: With big fall races happening every weekend, Dimity and Sarah suspect mother runners have been reflecting (read: obsessing) on their race goals.

RLAM Radio review
If you like anything about running -- mother or not, this is the podcast for you. These ladies talk about everything we think about while running -- jealousy about those super cool running groups, hill dread and just being a member of the tribe. Listen. It's that good.
