Sprint Interval Workout -Dierdre Wolownick

Today’s Sprint interval session is led by marathon runner and climber Dierdre Wolownick. For those that don’t recognize her name I am sure you have heard of her son Alex Honnold of the documentary Free Solo.  We spend time discussing her journey into climbing from the first day she went to the climbing gym with Alex through what was required of her physically, mentally and emotionally the day she became the oldest women at 66 to climb El Capitan.  She details how both Stasia and Alex had a part in her journey into running and how marathon running helped provide the foundation to take on the rigors of hiking, which is required to get to and from any climbing adventure.  Her credo to overprepare for whatever she is doing is a great lesson for everyone, no matter what activity that is.  I hope you enjoy!!
