Episode 11-Gill Bland-

Each week, your host Damian Nevins will interview runners and other athletes from a variety of backgrounds.

Gill Bland is an established club athlete with a marathon pb of 2.53. She has an impressive record of running quality marathons in quick succession. We talk about her running and talk in depth about pregnancy and running as well as the value of having a coach.
