Ep 302. Hayfever, Lidl & ultras

Ep 304. Hayfever, festivals and more boob chat

Welcome to episode 304 of the Women’s Running podcast. I’m your host Esther Newman and she’s your other host Holly Taylor. On this podcast we talk about health, politics, stuff on TV and what we ate last night. Occasionally, we talk about running. HAYFEVER AND TICKS We get straight in there with some hayfever chat – yes, we’re so current. But there’s reason for it: Hol’s been at a festival – yes, another one! While I’ve been traumatised while camping: stay out of the long grass, people. We also discuss weird behaviour down the gym, and we revisit the boob chat. PICK UP THE MAG!

Ep 303. Boobs, periods & heat

Welcome to episode 303 of the Women’s Running podcast. I’m your host Esther Newman and she’s your other host Holly Taylor. On this podcast we talk about health, politics, stuff on TV and what we ate last night. Occasionally, we talk about running. HEAT, PERIODS, BOOBS Oh my god the HEAT. What are we doing in the sun? How are we surviving in this heat? It’s so ludicrous, it’s forced me to get my pins out. Whatever next? Actual colour? Who knows? Along with the heat talk, listen in for a massive announcement on the period front (hold on to your hats – or your period cups). And, in a real treat for you, some horrible chat about boobs and gravity. Unrelated to all of that, Holly’s been on her travels, and we can’t wait to find out how her Claudia impression went down.

Ep 302. Hayfever, Lidl & ultras

Welcome to episode 302 of the Women’s Running podcast. I’m your host Esther Newman and she’s your other host Holly Taylor. On this podcast we talk about health, politics, stuff on TV and what we ate last night. Occasionally, we talk about running. HAYFEVER More coughing and spluttering on this episode I’m afraid, as we’re talking hayfever – please tell us what you do to cope in the nasty hayfever months? We also have an update on all things spine-related (not the race, I mean the internal bony structure). SIGNING UP TO AN ULTRA And forgetting backs for a bit, I am just about to commit to the SheRaces trail race in the Denbies Wine Estate in July! This is being put on by Pheonix Running, working with Sophie Power, and the Info from her  is: do please come with! There is a 10km option, which is a glorious hike to a viewpoint and back through the vineyard, and she’s keen to point out that the 50km has 9 (yes 9) toilet stops! No pooing in bushes, people. And we end with another controversy, because we love them! Hurrah!   GET THE MAG! If you’re fond of this pod, you are going to LOVE Women’s Running Magazine.

Ep 301. Is it a running addiction?

Welcome to episode 300 of the Women’s Running podcast. I’m your host Esther Newman and she’s your other host Holly Taylor. On this podcast we talk about health, politics, stuff on TV and what we ate last night. Occasionally, we talk about running. FLAGGING SPIRITS We jump straight in with our flagging enthusiasm for pretty much anything, which is the downside to achieving huge goals, right? Zooming down the other side with nothing to look forward to is a tough position to be in. RUNNING ADDICTION We chat goals (again), we talk about life juggles (bloody SATs), and we also talk the latest controversy – running addiction. Is this a fair label? Are people unfairly labelling others (or themselves) with ‘addiction’? Or is this a dangerous trend? Tell us your thoughts, cos we’d love to hear them, at wrpodcast@anthem.co.uk [wrpodcast@anthem.co.uk]. And sorry for all the coughing and spluttering in this episode, we’ll be back to full strength next week! PICK UP THE MAG! If you’re fond of this pod, you are going to LOVE Women’s Running Magazine.

Ep 300. How did we get here?!

Welcome to episode 300 of the Women’s Running podcast. I’m your host Esther Newman and she’s your other host Holly Taylor. On this podcast we talk about health, politics, stuff on TV and what we ate last night. Occasionally, we talk about running. EPISODE 300! WHAT? We are in a reflective mode today! It’s episode 300 – can you believe it? - so we try to remember what we did for our 100th and 200th episodes (booze may have been involved). We talk about how we’ve changed since those early episodes – mostly, I think, for the better! CONTROVERSIES We also talk about a couple of controversies – those Nike billboards that sprang up, alongside a bit more on the whole Joe Wicks thing. Trigger warning – there’s a bit here on weightloss, and weight gain, please be careful if this is triggering for you. GO ON, SUBSCRIBE!
