Katie and Hilary catch up at the start of February as the year suddenly feels like it’s moving fast. The conversation touches on creative momentum, making space for meaningful work, and the mix of excitement and nerves that comes with big plans falling into place. They reflect on racing as both a personal challenge and a mirror for life, especially in seasons where energy, priorities, and perspective are shifting.

The episode centers on Katie heading to Tarawera 100K on her 40th birthday, sharing an honest look at preparation, mindset, and what it means to show up fully without knowing how the day will unfold. From trusting training to staying flexible and present, it’s a reminder that sometimes the goal is simply to be in it and let the experience shape what comes next.
