Trail Running Women

I'm so excited to have Alyssa Clark back on the podcast! We dive deep into the mental side of running and why racing your best takes more than just one mental strategy. It's about building a whole toolbox of skills and knowing when to pull out the right one.

Alyssa was already an incredibly accomplished runner, so hearing how she continued to explore, learn, and find new ways to overcome challenges through her mental game is pretty cool. There's always another layer, and this conversation is a great reminder that we can keep getting better.

Find Hilary and Lauren @trailrunningwomenpod - reach out for group and one on one coaching options!

We have some great listener questions for our first episode of Trail Tips with Lauren!

We chat gear, 100 mile training, maintenance phases, and pelvic floor health. What is the best rain coat? How little can you do and still pull off a 100 miler? Should the state of your pelvic floor stop you from running? All that and more!

Training catch up with Lauren!

We chat about why effort can sometimes matter more than hitting an exact pace, and how stress and everything happening outside of running can sneak into your performance.

We also talk about learning to embrace the tough parts instead of constantly fighting them, and reminding ourselves that a run doesn't have to go perfectly to still be a good one.

I'm SO excited to be back, and this time with Lauren Andrews!

Lauren is a mom, a sub-3-hour marathoner, a coach, and a rising force in the trail running world. She brings the perspective of an accomplished athlete who understands what it takes to chase big goals. I could not be more excited to have her as our newest coach at Rugged Conditioning.

What's next for the pod? We will check in every month with life, running, and motherhood updates while also giving useful coaching tips and taking listener Q & A.

The future of the podcast :)

Kaz has a PhD in human behaviour and MSc in Sport and Exercise Psychology, and has studied our power to perform when faced with adversity. Passionate about helping people believe in themselves she explores what is it about our fears, courage, resilience, and mindset, that drives us to succeed or sabotages us? And Kaz loves to run far.

Her trail running journey started in Chamonix, France with the Mont Blanc Marathon and UTMB races. Favorite adventures include Tahoe 200 (3rd F), Moab 240 (2nd F), Ouray 100 (1st F), Tot Dret, Italy (3rd F) and Across the Years (420 miles in 10 days – 3rd F), plus successfully completing 1 crazy loop of The Barkley Marathons, and most recently finishing Last Annual Vol State, a 500K continuous and self-supported race across Tennessee.

We are back with Jeff the foot specialst! We tackle listener quesetions on all things feet + running.

Liz is an accomplished ultra runner who also broke the three-hour barrier in the marathon. In this episode, we dive into how she got there—and it wasn't a smooth or easy path. Her journey of accepting that it will hurt, and learning how to respond to that pain, is something every runner can take something from, no matter the distance
