Sara Hathor - Author - "Unexpected Gifts from all the wrong men"
Hey Runners,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. In this episode, my good friend, author, and fellow runner Sara Hathor 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!In Unexpected Gifts, 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 book. And she is proof that all these dates gave her a unexpected gift! Today she is happily married to a wonderful man.Sara HathorWebsite --- InstagramPurchase Saraʻs Book, "Unexpected Gifts from all the wrong men," Click Here.
