Ep 175. Anna Harding, V02 max, parkrun

Welcome to episode 175 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. Anna HardingHol and I are bookending this super brilliant episode with the ever wonderful Anna Harding. Because of recent running queries we’ve had, we talk to her about V02 max, which I hope you’re not completely bored with, and she offers the answers to EVERYTHING. Including why mine has suddenly increased with no apparent reason. Christmas running and parkrunBefore and after that, we chat about festive injuries, Christmas wrapping traditions, stocking present hell, and Gavin and Stacey. Running-wise, we’re knee-deep in parkrun again, so hold on to your hats. Join us!And I keep forgetting to say this, but do please sign up to be a patron of this podcast at patreon.co.uk/womensrunning, because for just £2 a month you can access our free monthly videos, our weekly newsletters, and you get to join our exclusive Pod Squad chat room, where all the fun happens! Lovely extra bitsSubscribe to Women’s Running – join us today and you’ll get a FREE exclusive Women’s Running technical tee worth £35!

Om Podcasten

Running is the one thing that we all like talking about. Every week on the award winning Women’s Running podcast, we talk all things running, women, health and fitness with our own brand of happy, irreverent chat. Esther and Holly talk through their training highs and lows, and all the bits and pieces in-between. Every so often, we invite an expert to join us to help us figure out the confusing worlds of training, recovery, nutrition, health and more. And sometimes we get to talk to an incredible woman from the world of running, from Anna McNuff to Paula Radcliffe, Susie Chan to Nicky Spinks. So why do we do it? Because we realised that most of the running podcasts we listened to were full of blokes waffling on about quads and cadence (and we realised that we can do that perfectly well ourselves, thank you very much). Right here, we talk about all the things that affect us when we step out the door: sexism, hormones, menopause, food, pelvic floors, relationships, mental health, seagull attacks and wild weeing. But. BUT. We will also talk about races, PBs, shoes, training, starting running, enjoying running, finding the fun. And quads and cadence. This is the Women’s Running podcast, and it’s for women who love to run. Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
