  • Episode 16 Life happens!

    Episode 16 Life happens!
    Mar 12 2023
    Life happens! But thankfully, more often than not, we can keep running. Sometimes though, life happens in such a way that running is forced to grind to a halt. In this episode, we chat with runners who had to become ‘runners who don’t run’ for a period of time. They share their experiences, their struggles, the mental adjustments needed and the process of getting back into running. The themes of having a flexible approach and staying connected to your running community come through each story. We hope this episode provides encouragement if life is currently happening for you. And if life is relatively smooth sailing I'm sure you'll love getting to know Laurina Bowlen, Michaela Wilson, and Mel Perry.

  • A Backyard Ultra Story: Nearly the last one’s standing

    A Backyard Ultra Story: Nearly the last one’s standing
    Nov 8 2022

    Episode 15. Well, that was a long run! Their first Backyard Ultra, AKA a Last One Standing Endurance Race (or L.O.S.E.R.). The idea is simple: all competitors run one lap of a 6.706km course. If you don’t finish the lap within the hour, you get a DNF (did not finish). If you finish in less than an hour, you spend the time recovering, re-fueling and preparing for the next lap, which starts on the hour. You never know when the race will finish, as it continues as long as there are people wanting to compete. Once the second last person drops out with a DNF, the remaining runner has to do one more lap to get the victory; otherwise everyone has the DNF. Sounds a tad insane, right?
