All our thanks go out to the BAMRs who took some time to fill out our recent survey. Because of your input, we learned a few things about our (ever growing) Tribe!
Like:
-
Most of you heard about Another Mother Runner through our books — but a lot of you found the Tribe through social media and the AMR Podcast.
-
You ladies are getting your miles in: 90% of you run 3+ days per week!
-
Your favorite brand of shoes to run in are Brooks, followed by Saucony & Asics.
-
If you run with a GPS watch, a Garmin is most likely on your wrist.
-
You like it when we tell you about our favorite brands; 85% of you have bought products based on Dimity & Sarah’s recommendations!
-
Y’all are avid listeners of the podcast, and would like it to air more than once a week! Maybe someday…
-
You want more training advice, essays, and “What Would a Mother Runner Do” columns on the blog. Done and done (and if you have a situation for What Would…, email adrienne AT anothermotherrunner DOT com.)
-
70% of BAMRs have 2 or 3 kiddos, which explains why we need to run so much.
We also learned that Team AMR forgot basic geography.
-
Not sure how this happened but Canada didn’t make the list of countries in the first round of the survey. SORRY to our Northern friends. We really do love you. Maybe we just had one Molson too many, eh?
-
In the States, California and Pennsylvania have our highest concentration of BAMRs. Every state had at least a few, however.
-
We are truly international, too, with mother runners all over the globe — with one exception: there are no BAMRs in Antarctica. Or, at least, there were no BAMRs thawed enough to fill out the survey.
I’d volunteer to move to Antarctica to represent! Well, at least during our summers!
Maybe a glitch in the geography part as I did the survey and I’m from Alberta, Canada and have been with you guys from the beginning! Love AMR – couldn’t run without you!
This proposal will certainly interest everyone. We can buy the necessary things at special prices. This is very beneficial for us.
