A Righteous Anger with Mary Cain
Description
Professional runner, med student, and newly published author Mary Cain joins Sarah to discuss her memoir “This Is Not About Running" and the decision to use first-person present tense to share her meteoric rise as a running phenom and eventual abuse at the hands of a famed coach. Cain opens up about the struggles she encountered in high school before joining the Nike Oregon Project, the lies she was told as a member of that elite pro team, and the reality of “hot girl” contracts. Plus, another great memoir worth your time and breaking news from a superstar athlete that just so happens to appear in both books.
