I don’t run ultras, I don’t live in the UK but I can’t get enough of this pod! Really enjoying listening to similar aged running ladies chatting on this pod…& crikey has it got me on the stair master @ the gym!!
I’ve binged this since discovering it in September, mammoth effort to catch up!
Listening to a ‘wintering’ pod whilst in the driving wind and rain on the PW seemed fitting. I also laughed out loud to the bit about advent calendars, you’ll have to listen to find out!
Love this podcast! Funny and super helpful. Hosts and guests are always brilliant, insightful and honest.
Ideal for the Sunday long run.
It’s funny, honest and full of great advice. It’s also much more entertaining and relatable than a lot of running podcasts and I always look forward to new episodes.
