Mom of three: It was so fun to read other mom's stories about running, what it means to them and know I am not alone in my love of this sport. Some of the stories were inspiring and some were laugh out loud funny. I would recommend this book to any woman, mother or not, who runs or wants to.

Mary W: I have been looking forward to the release of this book for months. I've been a fan of Dimity and Sarah since the release of their first book. I am Badass Mother Runner. I've listened to the teasers via podcasts on long runs. I was not disappointed. This book was inspiring, motivating and funny. I found Dimity's essay one the most touching and one of my favorite essays of the book. Even finishing the book a few days ago I am still thinking of her powerful essay. Each essay different, I related to some more than others but all were entertaining and thought provoking. "A Ghost Story" by Marit Fischer spoke to me as I just lost my father-in-law a year ago and miss him so much. I run alone and find my time running is my church, my place to reflect and enter a meditative space where such visits do occur. I also loved Michelle Theall's essay "Up Down Escalator." I know the devastating course of Multiple Sclerosis first hand as my mother has MS. I often think about her and how thankful I am to be able to run, bike and swim. Michelle Theall's essay was honest, touching and brought tears to my eyes as I read. Not a fan of Dimity and Sarah...yet. Never head of Another Mother Runner. Don't...

Jennifer Martin: Short and sweet! As mother runners I am sure many of you don't have time to read a long review! All women who lace up and run need a copy of Tales from Another Mother Runner and the additional two books in this unofficial trilogy! The books are lighthearted, funny, and packed full for information for all female runners. What I love most is Dimity and Sarah, write about "real life running" as a woman or mother. Subjects way too taboo for typical running publications. I stumbled upon their original book Run like a Mother when it was first published on amazon. I loved it so much I read it slow as I did not want the book to be over. Sounds crazy but it was true. I was thrilled to learn that Sarah and Dimity continue you the fun with their lively AnothermotherRunner.com web site and social media accounts. I am so proud to be a part of this tribe. I have established relationships with fellow mother runners all across the country! This book will not disappoint...or the other two books. Purchase them all today. Get hard copies so when you visit Sarah and Dimity you can have them signed. My first two copies are digital and I regret that decision. Enjoy!

I. Zuniga: As an absolute fan and member of the BAMR tribe, this book was the PERFECT episode to complete the trilogy. On the first book by Sarah and Dim, I fell in love with running and became a part of a tribe. With the second one, I excelled and worked hard with their training plans to get stronger, go farther and fastest. I even join Dimity and Sarah to run a Ragnar Race with a team of other fellow BAMRs... with the third one, it all came to full circle and I was able to share the stories, tears and laughter of the tribe they have put together that makes us all Bad Ass Mother Runners have a purpose and a place where we belong. where we can cure any heartache and worry with a mile, or twenty, and where a PR is one of the biggest achievements we can have as women, same as we hit milestones with our kids or our marriage. this book gave me incessant laughter and tears. It made me feel joy and pain. Page by page, story by story...mile by mile.... You should not only read this book but the 2 before this one. Cannot wait for the audoibook.... I am training for the Berlin Marathon in September and it will be perfect companion for my long runs over the summer!

Donald Kruger: I love the books Run Like A Mother and Train Like A Mother so I new I had to have Dimity and Sarah's third book, Tales From Another Mother Runner. And I was not disappointed. No matter if you are a mother or not a mother or NOT a runner and want to be or you have run several marathons, this book and this series is for you. I can honestly say that if I would not have found these books and the large community of runner mothers, I would not be still running after starting 3 years ago. I have never stopped training for a race since the first page! I am now training for my 2nd full marathon using Train Like A Mother Finish It Training Plan. With my running partner living 2 hours away, we train separately but on race day we stick together, I do most of my training runs listening to the Another Mother Runner Podcasts for good advice and girl company. In short I thought I was buying a book and what I actually got was a New Family! A Family of Thousands of mother runners just like me!
