About this listen

In this episode of Maybe Running Will Help, I sit down with elite marathoner and American record-breaker Keira D’Amato for an inspiring conversation about running, resilience, and redefining success.

Keira shares her journey of stepping away from the sport for nearly a decade, only to return stronger than ever—proving that our best days might still be ahead. We talk about the pressure of competition, finding joy in movement, and why running should always be fun first. Plus, Keira opens up about the power of small rituals (like bold nail colors!), her fun shield strategy for handling tough races, and what happened when she ran a marathon untrained.

Whether you're a competitive runner, a casual jogger, or just someone looking for a fresh perspective on chasing goals, this episode is packed with wisdom, humor, and inspiration.

🎧 Tune in, lace up, and join us for an episode that reminds us all—maybe running will help... everything.
