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!

In this episode we start off by talking about life (and death) getting in the way of running plans, and how we’re managing that. Holly’s also been chasing a 5K PB. We get very confused about Strava – so much so that it’s slightly upsetting. Can anyone illuminate us please?!

Then my next philosophical question is based on a conversation I had a few weeks back – are runners boring? Discuss! We are extremely worried that everything we do is in fact incredibly dull.

To make things less dull, we move on to the stuff that other people have been talking about – your emails are the highlight of our very dull week. finally, some race news – I’m running a women’s-only 5K next week with RunThrough, and we’re both running the London 10K in July.

Welcome to episode 200 of the Women’s Running podcast. This episode is sponsored by Runna. 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.

Whoop whoop! It’s our 200th episode and we are celebrating in style with a drink and a bowl of peanuts and a little look back at some of our favourite moments over the last year or so. I start on a slightly cross note because of a convo I’d had at the weekend, where I was asked a question that I think sets the tone for our entire podcast.

But once I’ve shed that baggage we’re on to the fun bit. What have been our most favourite pods over the past year or so? We start with a margarita, and end with an Aperol Spritz and in the middle of all of that we chat about our favourite bits, which includes the hang-glider face-off, Canal Boat Amy, the Paris Half with the Pod Squad massive, our trips to New York, and lots of toilet talk.
