This week Haddy spends some time on the couch at the Carrington Hotel with Clinical Psychologist Nadine Davies. Nadine shares a rare insight into the psyche of the elite runner and also the practicalities of being married to one (previous guest: Brendan Davies). We get down to the nitty gritty of elite home life, travelling the ultra world and being a podium standard support crew.

She tells us all how best to cope with the disappointment of all those recent race cancellations and some great strategies to deal with the little voice on your shoulder (or the extra one in your head).

We try to untangle the web of Wolfman's personalities with mixed results and we also uncover how crazy you really need to get to become an ultramarathon runner!
