Welcome to episode 217 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.
I’ve just got back from completing my Trail Escape marathon, which – if you listened to episode 216 – I was enormously nervous about. But it turns out there was no need – I had an absolute ball, which is probably a spoiler but I don’t care.
So here is my race report in full, from the shuttle bus on the way there, to the marshalls, to the toilets, to the medals. I am full of the joy of running a race with walkers and runners, with no pressure, where the sun was shining and every runner was getting cheered at the end.
Speaking of races, I’m also gearing up for the Royal Parks Half Marathon this weekend – if you’re going to be there, please say hi!
