Natasha Wodak, Canada's fastest female marathoner, is taking on the Hamburg Marathon this weekend in her bid to qualify for a third Olympic team at Paris 2024. She chats with Trillium Running Podcast host John Shep about how she navigates the adversity in competition, but also the collective soul of Canadian athletics. They also take a detour to celebrate all things Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend, as it is the 50th Anniversary of that amazing race!

We also get a visit from the Running Physio and Canada Running Series Foundation, who are hosting 3rd annual Freestyle 5K and 1K Kids Run in support of Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital. This event is open to participants of all ages and abilities and we learn how to join them at Sunnybrook Park on Saturday, May 4th, 2024 to support creating a world of possibilities for kids and youth with disabilities.
