Description
Run, train, and thrive during menopause and beyond with this science-backed guide designed to help women understand and take control of their fitness in this next stage of life.

The radically changing body that we inhabit in puberty and adulthood starts a new road trip with menopause. In Fit & Healthy Menopause, clinical neuropsychologist and distance running coach Dr. Kristina Pinto explains the key factors that affect our running experience in perimenopause, menopause, and beyond so you can continue your fitness journey as you age.


Inside you'll find practical advice for runners, athletes, superagers, and anyone else who might feel like their bodies have gone rogue during this time, including:

  • A science-backed, brain-body approach to explain common themes surrounding menopause in athletes, such as identity, cognition, anxiety, energy, sleep, and mood change

  • Anecdotes from a perimenopausal marathoner (the author) that provide relatable and optimistic situations to reassure runners about common health and fitness concerns

  • Interviews with renowned experts in sports medicine, urogynecology, and nutrition on menopause-related issues like bone density, common injuries, diet and vitamin deficiencies, stress incontinence, energy, and metabolic changes

  • Guidance on training adjustments, planning for races, and alternatives to running when we must take a break


Continuing your running and training during menopause can feel like running in new territory with no map. Fit & Healthy Menopause gives you the tools and assurance you need to continue to do what you do best: run your own life.
