The Women's Running Podcast

Welcome to episode 221 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.

Hol and I have had very busy weeks, and very different ones. I talk about running abroad, as well as running with kids – with varying degrees of success. And while I was gadding about in Denmark, Holly has had a super busy week, dealing with dramatic injuries and last-minute requests to be on the actual telly, I hope you all spotted her.


London Marathon

Aside from her burgeoning media career, Holly is getting increasingly anxious about running the London Marathon, so we talk about how she’s going to deal with that anxiety and how she’s going to approach her training.
