This week Kirsten talks to me about running UTA

And she's warning you that UTA is a gateway drug and shares what run is currently pulling at her for next year.

I also refer to this article by Lauren Fleshman, called, I Run Like a Girl.

This week, someone in Far and Fast was talking to me about the podcasts

And she told me how much she loved Ness' interview, but where was my story? I replied, 'what story', because I'm occasionally dense like that. And the more I thought about my story the more overwhelmed I was about putting it out there into the universe.

But here it is, anyway. I won't say much about it because I made multiple attempts at recording it, some of it was hard to say, and some of it was hard for me to hear myself saying. Mostly it just makes me think of that woman that I was, who had to work so hard to walk into a 24 hour gym, who had to be so brave and fearless in an environment that's engineered to tell her she didn't belong. And she did it over and over and over. I have no idea where she found the strength. Everything I do now is so easy by comparison, because of her.

This week, Ness is back!

And we are talking about what it's really like to run 100km. We talk about how she felt going into it after her last (very) long run, how she felt going into such an epic run, support crew shenanigans and would she do it again?

You can follow Ness on facebook and instagram. And you can check out her interview on Sparta Chicks Radio too!

And I had a bit of surprise news this week too!

It's been a huge week! And I talk a bit about some of the exciting things that have been happening in Operation Move land. But if you want to skip to the juicy bit you can do that here.

It was pretty incredible to be honoured by some of the women that I admire the most and to be put forward for that honour by the most amazing women I know.

This week it is the 50th episode!

And to celebrate, I'm talking about why motivation isn't as mysterious as you might think it is. And how The Hulk can help you to understand it better.

This week, I am talking to Jane

I love a good running origin story. This week, I'm talking to Jane about why she started running and what kept her going. We talk a bit about her experiences of running the Great Ocean Road (twice) and what she's learned along the way. Jane is such an active part of our community, I know you will all love to hear her voice and find out a bit more about her story.

And I talk a little bit about what happened on the Gold Coast too. Just in case by some miracle you haven't been instagram-spammed with all of the things.

This week, I'm talking about the taper

We have so many people heading to the Gold Coast this week and for many people the end of the training cycle is the most mentally challenging. It's where all the doubts come in. Phantom illnesses come in. Phantom injuries. And in general you spend way too much time thinking about how everything could go horribly wrong.

So this week I'm talking about getting your mental resilience game strong for your final week before an event.

And if you are coming to the Gold Coast, pop into the Community group and let us know!

This week I am having a chat to Jo

And we tackle some of the burning questions that people have like:

How do you fit in training for a 100km trail run AND work AND do mum/partner/life stuff too?

What does low heart training look like

How does she fuel her really long runs (it's more delicious than you might think)

And why discipline will trump ego

You can check out Jo at her blog, on her instagram or in the community group.

In case you were living under a rock, I ran a half marathon last weekend at race pace

There wasn't an organised race, I just picked a route to run locally. But it did get me thinking about all of the strategy that goes into the event itself, even after you've done all the training.

There is:

Nutrition in the lead up: should you be carb-loading or avoiding fiber?

Hydration before the big day: how to make sure you are actually absorbing all of that water

What's your pacing strategy: why negative splits are terrifying, but can help you

What's your on-day nutrition and fuelling strategy?

Why would you warm up when you are running a ridiculous amount of kilometres anyway?

And finally, your recovery plan

So I talk a bit about all of those things and I have a teeny little rant about those posters that reduce the distance of your run to a certain number of cupcakes or donuts. Don't even get me started. And here's that phat fudge recipe I was talking about.
