If you don't know Fiona Oakes, you should. We first came across her on her documentary Running for Good. Having struggled with immense pain in her youth, finally having her kneecap removed, she was told she would never run. Well she's proved the world wrong, holding the world records for: fastest time to complete a marathon on each continent, fastest aggregate time for a female to complete a marathon on each continent plus the North Pole marathon, fastest total time for a female to complete a marathon on each continent plus the North Pole and fastest female to run a half marathon in a costume (a cow). She's done all this while working on her farm for abused animals and being a staunch Vegan.
In this episode we also discuss running in the heat, those feelings of not being cool, how no one else cares about our running gadgets and other fun. You'll love this episode if you need some humor and inspiration.
