Running is the one thing that we all like talking about. Every fortnight, we will be having a chat and a cuppa with an incredible woman from the world of running. From superstar pro runners to everyday plodders, each of them has made a big difference to running - and to women. We realized that there was a huge gap in the podcast world: a podcast that was about our favourite subject, that was..

Avoiding parkrun
Holly’s been on a hen do and has managed to avoid going to parkrun, or in fact run at all for a whole five days. And does she feel guilty? No she does not. She explains why here, but it also leads us neatly on to how we’re going to be fitting in our last long runs ahead of the New York half.

Bath Half
It’s the day after the Bath Half, and I want to talk you through it. First we talk about vlogging or not during a race – I’m not very good at doing this, and decided against it during this one (sorry). So I ran it and have many thoughts, and Hol wasn’t running it, but was instead singing with her choir on the route to raise the runne ..read more

Booze and running
And we’re definitely NOT talking about running to begin with. We’re talking about booze. Our weekends have been very different because of it: Holly’s had a jolly time at the pub, while I’ve been getting acid reflux after half a glass. Aging isn’t fair.
Tapering
On to the running bit. Running has become HARD for me. I a ..read more

Yoga
You catch us in the middle of chatting about our recent yoga efforts, which have had various degrees of success. Running has also had some ups and downs, as we prepare variously for our New York Half and the Bath Half, which I’ve snuck in the middle there.
Running annoyances
I then get going on the latest thing that’s made me enorm ..read more
