Another Mother Runner Many Happy Miles: Super (and speedy!) Dad Shaun Evans
Running may be a mostly solitary pursuit, but this episode shines a light on the act of running for others. On the heels of Father's Day, hosts Dimity and Sarah WF bring on return guest and speedy dad Shaun Evans, who races while pushing his son, Shamus, in a wheelchair. Shaun describes what it's like to run with Shamus, now 18, who was born with cerebral palsy, including:
—What it was like to run their first Boston Marathon this year;
—What the father and son chat about while racing;
—Why Shaun will not likely ever race without a wheelchair; and,
—What's next for Shaun and Shamus (psst: one of them is going off to college!)...and more!
Listen to AMR's other chat with Shaun, plucked from the 2015 archives.
