Sara Hathor - Author - "Unexpected Gifts from all the wrong men"
<p>Hey Runners,</p><p>Well, itʻs been a long time. A very long time like three years since my last podcast. So I guess this is a revival or a reboot. Iʻve missed you. A lot has happened in running and my life over the past years and I will bring you up to speed on it all in a future episode. In 2026, you can expect some very interesting episodes. </p><p>In this episode, my good friend, author, and fellow runner <a href="https://www.sarahathor.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sara Hathor</a> is my guest. She wrote a book titled, Unexpected Gifts from all the wrong men. And yes, I read the entire book. One divorce. One broken engagement. Twenty-five failed dates. A heck of a journey!</p><p>In <strong>Unexpected Gifts</strong>, Sara turns heartbreak into self-discovery, breaking relationship patterns and learning what love—and life—are really about. Honest, funny, and deeply relatable, this is a story of resilience, growth, and finding yourself when everything else falls apart. You will love this episode and her <a href="https://amzn.to/4afIGlv" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">book</a>. And she is proof that all these dates gave her a unexpected gift! Today she is happily married to a wonderful man.</p><p><strong><u>Sara Hathor</u></strong></p><p><a href="https://www.sarahathor.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Website</a> --- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sarahathor_/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></p><p><strong>Purchase </strong>Saraʻs Book, "<strong>Unexpected Gifts from all the wrong men</strong>," <a href="https://amzn.to/4afIGlv" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click Here.</a> I do make a small commission if you purchase. </p><p><u>Show Timestamps</u></p><p>[00:33] - Host Jim Lynch open - [03:12] - Sara Hathor - Author - Unexpected Gifts from all the wrong men - Interview [55:40] - Jim-episode close </p><p>Thank you, runners, for listening to the Feel-Good Running Podcast!
