So excited to be joined by Sophie Bennett for today’s episode. Based in France, from the UK, she is passionate by movement and sport, a passion that only grew and evolved over the years. We discuss her journey from being the team manager for Bath Rugby for several years, while starting to run, all the way to completing some of the world’s toughest mountain race such as Dragon’s back, and most recently Winter Downs 200.

We dive into those challenges and how she built confidence and resilience, inspired by her family and especially her mum.

She now coaches people too, and shares her thoughts on the evolution of the female trail running scenes.

I cannot wait for you to listen to the episode, hope you love it and get excited for your own adventures!

Very happy to welcome Jen Scotney on the podcast today. She is a podcaster, writer, coach, yoga teacher, and mountain leader. She also was a runner and has previously stood on the podium at some of the UK’s toughest ultramarathons, including the 190 mile Northern Traverse race and twice on the 108 winter Montane Spine Challenger. A diagnosis of osteoarthritis that was not related to running, led to two knee replacements, and the end of her running. She now writes and broadcasts exploring how we cope when life doesn’t go as planned.

Very grateful that she shared her story with us and I hope you enjoy listening as much as I loved our conversation!

Thrilled to be joined by Poppy Collingwood for episode 5, outdoor lover, trail runner based in the UK. We recorded this episode early February, she had just ran and won the Arc of Attrition 50 in Cornwall, a couple of weeks before that. We dive into this experience, from the preparation to the pre-race nerves and doubts, to running her own race, and switching to a positive mindset!

We also discuss how sharing a trail running experience with her dad changed her vision of running, her love for the coast, imposter syndrome, and finding peace in running and enjoying nature.

Cannot wait for you to listen to the episode, hope it inspires you to embrace your own journey of self-discovery and embark on new adventures.
