Welcome to the Peak Endurance podcast! Episode 179 is an episode where Ron and I chat with one of my good friends that I met whilst I lived in Canada. We recently caught up with her and ran with her a couple of times on our trip earlier this year. Lourdes is always doing an amazing race in some far-flung location and recently she ran Tor Des Geants. This is a race I REALLY want to do so I thought I would get her on the pod to chat about this amazing event. As you will hear, she has had many ups and downs this year running all over the world, the lucky thing. In fact, she messaged me after we recorded to say she forgot one race, the Blackfoot 50 miler in May. I was meant to do that race back in 2018 but had to go home to Australia as my mum had just had a stroke. Difficult times. But anyway, keep that in mind when you hear her talk about all her races. Lourdes is such a great person, so easy-going and chatty. If you’re listening with kids in the car, please be warned the f-bomb may have been dropped. It was part of the conversation and to be honest isn’t that word just part of conversation now!! And my interviews tend to be fun conversations with awesome people, so it happens! Ron and I had so much fun chatting with Lourdes, she is hilarious as you will find out!

Do you love the pod? God I hope so!! If you do, did you know that it is super easy to go onto Apple Podcasts and give the show 5 stars (if you think it deserves it!!) and wrote a short review. I don’t get paid to do this (in fact it costs me!!) but knowing that it means something to YOU makes me keep plugging away at it.  The link to Apple podcasts is here.
