In this episode of the Run Culture podcast I sit down with elite female distance runner, physiotherapist and strength & conditioning coach; Anna Kelly. It has been great to work alongside Anna this year at SSPC (Southern Suburbs Physiotherapy Centre) as not only is she super passionate about physio and all things running, she also just a great person and loves to have a laugh!

In 2017 Anna came an astonishing 32nd at the World Cross Country Championships in Uganda. However, since then it has been a tough road! Here we openly discuss Anna's injury riddled past couple of years and what she has learnt and continues to learn.

We talk about what she is trying to do to avoid injury this year as she strives to become a more 'robust athlete' that will be around in years to come.

We then went on to discuss 2019, her 8th place in the half marathon at the World Uni games in Naples, running a 74:20  (2min PB) half marathon at the Werribee Mansion fun run and her recent convincing win in the Burnley Athletics Victoria Half Marathon Championships.

There's a lot of good stuff in this one, so give it a listen!!
