Happy Spring!

This week, we tackle a question every runner has asked themselves at some point in their journey… What do you do with yourself when you can’t run? Well, Anna is officially a pro and is coming through with some tips and tricks to get through a running hiatus.

While she’s giving out advice, Anna gives us some tips on how to prepare and fuel yourself while you’re travelling or life in general is a bit hectic.

 We’ll also take a look at some of your most unhinged running habits – and boy, were there some weird ones! We’ve crowned our favourite as this week’s Cheeky Lululemon Champion, so keep an ear out for that.

Welcome to a new week, friends!

 Ever run a PB, finished a marathon, or hit another big goal and kind of felt… eh? You may be experiencing what’s called the ‘arrival fallacy’.

 This week on the pod, we’re reflecting on times we’ve ticked off big goals of ours, how satisfied we felt afterwards, and whether the journey was more important than the destination.

We also have a lot of exciting news sprinkled throughout the episode – a chance to bag yourself a nice sauna outing before work in Melbourne, some awesome Lululemon events at the Sydney Marathon in a few weeks, and of course, we’ll share this week’s Lululemon Cheeky Champion!

Good morning cheeky crew!

This week, we debrief post-Gold Coast, straight off the racecourse and sidelines. It was certainly a hot one for Phoebe, so be sure to listen to see how she went and if Strava accurately predicted her race time.

We also had the pleasure of seeing some of you at our Shakeout run with Lululemon, and we hope everyone who raced this weekend had a great time.

Thank you for joining us this season, we cannot wait to be back in your ears in two weeks :')

Twas the week of the Gold Coast Marathon, when all through the show, Phoebe and Anna were stirring, they couldn’t wait to go!

 That’s right – it’s Gold Coast week, and we can’t wait to see you at our Shakeout run!

 In today’s ep, we had the pleasure of picking Isobel Hume’s brain on all things preparation before a big race… how to train, hydrate, sleep, carb load, and mentally prepare the week before your event.

 Make sure you stay until the end of the episode to find out what a ‘dead cow gully’ is – because Anna sure didn’t know (and I’d wager you don’t either!).

Welcome to Monday cheeky chums! Lots on in today’s ep…

Ahead of Phoebe’s Gold Coast half-marathon, we’ve taken a look at Strava and Garmin’s race time predictors… how do they compare, what do they base their calculations off, and do we think either is accurate?

Then we’re diving into a listener question; our first go at answering a run-club related ‘Am I the Asshole?’. We can't wait to hear your thoughts on this one.

Then, to wrap it up, we share your best tips and tricks to help the oh-so-dreadful runner's knee.
