Amy Watson is the queen of ultra-speed!

A field hockey and lacrosse player, turned marathoner - she began running ultra-distances in her early 40s, and now lays claim to numerous wins and course records at all distances from 50k to 100 mile! But her path to the top was neither easy nor linear.

In this episode, Lauren and Amy talk about her journey to success: including struggles with her health and family life, multiple failures to complete the 100 mile distance, learning, seeking help, finding community, pursuing joy; and how she is continuing to find success, chase podiums, and PRs now as a menopausal athlete in her late 40s.
