Welcome to episode 202 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.

This episode is sponsored by Runna For a FREE two-week trial of Runna, just use the code WOMENSRUNNING and fill your running boots.

We start on the thing that seems to have riled you the most – whether Holly’s Strava is working against her. We then talk about our running, and how that’s been going, what it’s like running in different cities.

We’re continuing to semi train for our London 10K in July, so in a bit of a stress we’ve downloaded a super quick 4-week training plan as we haven’t been taking things seriously enough. If you’re in the same position, we’re using a four-week 60-minute 10K training plan from the Women’s Running website (just here).

Then we’re bringing in some running questions – we’re going back to basics, and telling you guys why we run, and what we like about it. We’d love to hear your answers here too so do please get in touch with your why, and what you like about it!
