Welcome to episode 184 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.

Bad training

Holly has had some ups and downs with her half marathon training, including an almost literally crappy run, so we have a lot to talk about with that. Half marathon training is not easy, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Simple running

In other news, we’ve decided we want to start a campaign – to run more simply. We’re both overwhelmed by all the information that’s thrown at us on a daily basis on how to run better, what strength training to do, what to eat, and what to do for general fitness. What we want is a simplification of all that noise – how to run, how to train, how to get fitter in about four different moves MAX. So – who’s with us? And what’s our manifesto going to be?
