Monday Mile with Aimee Fuller

By: Monday Mile - By Aimee Fuller
  • Summary

  • Former Team GB double winter Olympian, and no broadcaster and author Aimee Fuller is on a mission to find the secrets for Monday motivation from some of the most successful sports men and women of our time and other well-known celebrities which will drop every week. Aimee will be probing for answers from the full spectrum of routines; the early birds who have finely tuned Monday mornings, to the late risers who struggle to get up before 11am. How do elite athletes find the motivation to kick start their week come rain or shine? How do celebrities deliver no matter what the time of day? What knowledge can they pass on?’ Each episode will drop on a Monday morning and plays out in real time. Aimee will meet each of her guests for a walk and a chat and over the course of the mile she will find out how they cope on a Monday morning - their idiosyncrasies, breakfast routines, alarm noises - and how, when they need to, find the motivation to kick-on through the week. Dropping every Monday as a bitesize 23-35 minute piece of content and weekly dose of motivation - right when you need it - sharing some of Britain's greatest athletes’ secrets on self-motivation, candid thoughts on what they struggle with and a sideways look at some of their more unusual morning habits.

  • S11 Ep4: EILISH MCCOLGAN ON HER RECORD-BREAKING WIN AND FOLLOWING IN HER MOTHER’S FOOTSTEPS
    Apr 28 2024
    We’re sprinting into a new week as I’m joined by @eilishmccolgan for another #MondayMile episode! 🏃‍♀️

    Eilish is a 4x European Championships medallist and 3x Olympian who became the 10,000 metres champion at the 2022 Commonwealth Games, breaking her own’s Mum’s record that she’d held for 31 years 🤯 We chat about that amazing moment, and she tells me how it feels following in her incredible mum’s footsteps 🏃‍♀️

    We also look forward to this year’s Olympics, delving into what it takes to qualify and the tough process of her recovering from an injury to get back to peak fitness 💪

    Running is a tough sport, physically and mentally, but Eilish is fortunate to have her partner Michael along for the ride wherever she goes. They travel 11 months of the year to train for competitions, and she tells me how incredibly lucky she feels to have that support system with her through those long weeks of training.

    With not long now to go until the Games, it’s fantastic to catch up with Eilish and get a real insight into what happens behind the scenes as she gets ready for the #2024Olympics

  • S11 Ep3: LEAH MCCOURT ON MMA AND HER DEVASTATING INJURY
    Apr 21 2024
    I’m back on home turf for this week’s Monday Mile! It’s exciting to be back in Belfast, and even more exciting to be chatting to world champion MMA fighter Leah ‘The Curse’ McCourt (@leahmccourtmma). She’s the #1 Featherweight fighter in @bellatormma, as well as a Black belt in Brazilian jujitsu and judo. Basically, she’s a savage
    Our walk takes us near the SSE Arena, where Leah was due to fight Sinead Kavanagh for the second time last month – but the fight never happened due to a HORRIFIC injury Leah suffered in training. Leah reveals exactly what happened, and talks about the pain of missing out on that opportunity (and also the very real pain of her broken rib!)
    She’s both fearless and friendly, which I discover as she opens up about her tough path into MMA, including her training AND working full time while raising her daughter, and being early to the game in women’s MMA. Leah’s keen to share why she thinks it’s the most exciting sport in the world, but also what might need to change about the sport – specifically when it comes to those brutal weight cuts -
    Thanks for joining me, Leah!

  • S11 Ep2: GREGG WALLACE ON 20 YEARS OF MASTERCHEF AND FAMILY LIFE
    Apr 14 2024

    A brand new Monday means a brand new Mile, and in today’s ep I’m joined by British TV legend @greggawallace. You’ll know him as a judge on @masterchefuk, but you may not be as familiar with his mission to transform our country’s health through his lifestyle platform @greggwallace.health.

    I catch up with Gregg in the middle of filming Series 20 of MasterChef, where he tells us how the show has stayed fresh after decades on the air. Television is a mad world to navigate even if you’re not as busy as him, so I ask him about how he manages such a hectic lifestyle. He plans meticulously, and squeezes a lot in - including plenty of time with his wife Anna and youngest son Sid, who has severe Autism.

    Strict planning also helped Gregg achieve huge weight loss in recent years. He cut out fast food and snacks and started centring his diet on healthy, hearty meals. Now Gregg helps others do the same through his website GreggWallace.Health, with the mission of halting the fast-rising obesity crisis striking our country. It’s a noble cause!

    There’s lots to take away from our chat – which is ironic as I won’t be touching one of those for a while…thanks Gregg!
