Being a Running Influencer Is Weird: Murder Mystery Podcasts & Bald-Headed Scallawags — with Erica Kennedy aka @inmyrunningerica
Episode 209
Thursday, 12 February, 2026
Send a textWhat starts as a quick run to get out of the house… can end up changing your entire life.In this episode of the Active Mom Podcast, I sit down with running creator Erica Kennedy aka @inmyrunningerica to talk about how running helped her survive an abusive marriage — and slowly rebuild her confidence, independence, and sense of self one mile at a time.Now she’s the voice behind the hilarious IG posts that we runners can’t stop sharing — from what to wear in Bald Headed Scallywags winter-storm running weather to her spot-on anatomy jokes and injury stories that make every runner say, “wait… that’s literally me.”But behind the humor is real Life.We talk about:🔷 finding time to run while raising three kids in completely different life stages🔷 navigating running injuries without losing your sanity 🔷finding the right running shoe (& then losing it)🔷 the reality (and challenges) of home gym life🔷 what it actually means to be a “running influencer” (and whether your neighbors even know)🔷 the wild story of how she almost got scammed by “Asics.”Plus: a run-stalking murder mystery that proves runner stories are never boring, with both of us unanimously deciding that mutual friend @lauramcgreen will singlehandedly lead the investigation and the GoFundMe. (You're going to have to listen to get this one! It's worth it!)Because running isn’t just pace and mileage.Sometimes it’s survival. Sometimes it’s therapy. Sometimes it’s the only 30 minutes that’s yours. And sometimes it's a great time to share a laugh.If you’ve ever needed a run to keep your sanity — you’ll feel very seen in this one.Time Stamps1:00 Introduction4:30 creating funny skits10:22 finding the right time to run17:05 struggling with injury21:32 sponsorships and scams27:41 home gyms and strength training34:42 mom life and kid personalities41:39 what her parents think47:09 rapid fire questionCONNECT WITH CARRIEIG: https://www.instagram.com/carriepagliano/Website: https://carriepagliano.comCONNECT WITH ERICA:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/inmyrunningerica/The Active Mom Podcast is A Real Moms' Guide to pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause & beyond for active moms & the professionals who help them in their journey.
