We are so happy to welcome Australian Olympian Lisa Weightman to the Suite Run Podcast!

Lisa is a professional runner for Asics and she lives and trains in Melbourne, AU. Lisa recently placed second at the Gold Coast Marathon at the beginning of July 2022, running 2:25:55 at age 43!

Lisa is a FOUR time Olympian (2008, 2012, 2016) including her performance at the Tokyo Olympics last summer in the marathon, running 2:34:19 and coming in 26th place.

Lisa has a personal best of 2:25:15 in marathon, 1:08:43 in the half marathon, 31:49 in 10k and she was a bronze medalist in the 2008 World Cross Country Championships. 

In our chat, Lisa shares how she juggles life as a professional marathoner with her full time career as an Associate Partner for IBM and motherhood (she is mum to 7 year old Pete.).

In the second half of of the conversation, Lisa takes us on a tour Down Under through scenic Melbourne, Australia and we discover Lisa's favorite places to RUN, dine out and more (+ where to see kangaroos) - this was such a fun conversation!
