The Women's Running Podcast

Welcome to episode 246 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.

London Mararthon Expo

This is a bit of an extra little treat this week. We were going to do one big podcast with all our marathon thoughts, but instead first of all we’re going to bring you this live podcast we recorded on Saturday, at the London Marathon Expo, the day before the marathon. Later on this week, we’ve got a full and frank debrief of the day itself. Before we get to that, though, here we are talking to Jordan from Coopah on stage about pre-race nerves, last minute prep, and all the things to get excited about on the day of the race.
