About Aimee: Over the past few decades, Aimee Woosnam's life has been characterized by an eating disorder, anorexia. Aimee was a high-achieving student but the stress of final exams, and GCSEs, adversely impacted her and allowed anorexia to take over.

Fortunately, she has gotten stronger through each obstacle and is now a high-achieving athlete and student. Listen to our talk to learn more about her journey!

About Thia: Thia Malan has had quite a diverse and accomplished running career over the past few decades, and we are so excited to talk to her.

After remaining active and fit for the subsequent years, she "rediscovered" her passion for racing and ventured into the world of ultramarathoning. Now, she lives in Wales and is an accomplished ultramarathoner, and finisher of one of the toughest ultra-races, the 6 day Dragon's Back race.
