Episode Synopsis


This week, it’s time to get active — Joy Beat is celebrating the joy found in exercising and moving your body. We start with Bobbi Gibb, the first woman to ever run the Boston Marathon, despite women not being allowed to participate yet; then, we go to Brockton to meet Dave and Judy Gorman, who, for 47 years, have hosted Kids Road Races, helping families get outdoors and inspiring a lasting love of running; plus, to the yoga mat, with Susan Lovett, who heads the Hands to Heart Center: Yoga for the People, bringing the grounding practice of yoga to low-income, underserved communities.-------------------------Credits:Host: Arun RathProducers: Jacklyn Martin and Kana RuhalterEditors: Jacklyn Martin and Kana Ruhalter Project Manager: Meiqian HeEditorial Advisor and Head of GBH Podcasts: Devin Maverick Robins
