Happy Monday friends 💛 

In today’s ep, Phoebe covers the best and worst running news of the week, answers some listener questions, and reflects on the last two magical weekends! We also have three more interviews from Sydney’s track nights for you this week, who were such a pleasure to speak to.

Well HELLO everyone! 

We are on an absolute high this Monday after our first Cheeky Track Night in Melbourne. Truly was a dream come true.

Phoebe is flying solo in today’s ep, and starts by chatting about how to make your running program match your lifestyle. 

We also got to have a cheeky debrief with a few of you after your races on Saturday night, which really captured just how special weekend #1 was – we can’t wait for Sydney next week!!!

There are a few tickets left for Sydney Cheeky Track Nights if you want to get involved. Thank you so much to New Balance and Rebel Sport for making these weekends possible.

HAPPY Monday Chums! 

This week, we’re breaking down what to expect at our Cheeky Track Night this weekend and track nights more generally. We’ll take you through checking in, warmups, marshalling, and race etiquette so you’re prepped and ready for your big night in Melbourne or Sydney.

We also get what is hopefully Anna’s final weekly waddle update – that’s right, ladies and gents – she’s 40 weeks! Anna reflects on her experience with Braxton-Hicks contractions and the beautiful support she’s received from friends and family.

Happy ! Monday ! Crewwww! 

We’ve all been afraid, nervous, or anxious to try something new – something that pushes us outside our comfort zone, and we can’t predict the exact outcome. Something like Australia’s very first 5km women's-only track night… .

Whether it’s a marathon or a track race, today’s episode features the wonderful Issy Hume, who unpacks what fear is and how to live with it.

We also catch up on Anna’s 39th week of pregnancy in what may be the final weekly waddle… stay tuned! We’ll also cover an exciting interview Harry Styles did in Runner’s World, and how running is an escape for him. 

Tickets for Cheeky Track Nights are now available! Thank you so much to New Balance and Rebel Sport for making this possible and bringing this episode to life.

Happy Monday crew!

 This week, we’re exploring the controversy around Whoops watches at the Australian Open, and our thoughts on players being banned for wearing them.
