Ep. 0010: Redefining Running Goals During a Pandemic with Anna Mae Flynn
Anna Mae Flynn is an amazing HOKA ONE ONE sponsored ultrarunner and ultrarunning coach with Mountain Endurance Coaching. During her adolescent years, she ran competitively for Striders - a junior Olympics team and weaved her way into the cross country and track team at Watauga High School. After graduating college and overcoming burnout from college athletics, she taught math in Lake Tahoe. Her love for sports pushed her to jump into triathlons, road and mountain cycling, swimming and skiing; eventually she found herself back into the running world. In 2015, she took a liking to the trail running community through the Way Too Cool 50K. If you follow enough of her journey, you'll know that she was first female at the Speedgoat 50K and there's a host of other accolades that decorate her portfolio.
On this episode, Anna Mae Flynn and Latoya Shauntay Snell reflect on a year of not participating in races and how it impacted their careers, mind and spirit. Anna Mae touch on how the COVID-19 pandemic shifted her gears on running, as well as the mental, physical and emotional impact on her clients. Anna Mae and Latoya talk about their connection through HOKA ONE ONE and being two sponsored athletes of different pace groups. Both women provide advice to new athletes that jumped into running during the pandemic and touch on necessary diversity in the running community.
