#249: Save Your Skin!

The BibRave Podcast

This week’s episode of The BibRave Podcast is all about celebrating and preserving our body’s largest organ - our skin!

Tim and Jess talk with their friend and fellow runner, Dr. Kelly Griffith-Bauer, MD - a Board Certified Dermatologist and Mohs surgeon! They discuss everything related to skin such as various skin types, different types of sunblock, best practices for care and protection (especially for runners), and the consequences of neglecting sun protection.

Obviously, this is a topic that affects all runners, regardless of pigmentation (they discuss that too), so there are a ton of useful takeaways. Bottom line - don’t mess around with the sun because you do NOT want to go see Dr. Bauer. 😬
