Listen Later

In this episode we’re joined by Grace Wearne; community run leader, Nike Running expert, and vibrant voice in the Sydney running scene. Grace shares her journey into running, how it helped her navigate a challenging start in life, and why community is at the heart of everything she does.

We cover:

  • Grace’s story - From non-runner to run leader and advocate
  • The power of community - How run clubs foster belonging and connection
  • Redefining success - Letting go of pace obsession and racing for joy
  • Supporting women in running - Challenges, empowerment, and inclusive spaces
  • Identity & authenticity - Balancing your ‘why’ and finding joy in the journey
  • The little things that matter - Sports bras, safety, and showing up


This episode is a reminder that running is so much more than training plans and finish lines - it’s about people, purpose, and connection.
