Challenges of Ultra Running & Chronic Illness - Jen Scotney - Author of Running Through The Dark
Jen Scotney, author of Running Through The Dark joins us to talk through some challenging topics which she shared in her recent book. This is TW for topics including grief, chronic illnesses and childlessness. Jen was born in the Peak District and set her sights on running the whole of the Penine Way, but through some various circumstances including chronic illness and injuries, the story doesn't pan out as she expected. In this week's episode Jen and I explored wha ultra marathons feel like and the motivation behind them, running through grief and how powerful connection truly is. This isn't a podcast that is all rainbows and sunshines but is about a resilient woman who's learning to live with the experiences she's had and what normal now looks like.

Why Marathon Training Plans Don't Need To Be 16 Weeks - Break the Mould
In this week's episode we share our opinion on why we believe marathon plans don't always need to be 16 weeks. Research studies have also stated that 12 week plans can be more effective for experienced or advanced runners. The crucial factor in deciding how long your block should be is, what did your training look like before, what do you need to work on next and break the cycle down into smaller blocks. Our DMs are always open if you want to discuss this topic more and also in relation to your own training. Purchase our new Strength Guide Here.
