Welcome to episode 245 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.
Cards on the table, we’re worried this is going to be the most boring episode in the world, as we can’t talk about anything other than marathon. It’s this weekend, so we talk about being excited, being nervous, what we’re going to wear and what we’re going to do. There’s also a lot of chat on the prep – from acupuncture to bikini waxes, we’ve got a long to-do list to check off.
At the end, we also circle back to the chat about finish line proposals with a few more experiences and thoughts from you lot.
In the meantime, for everyone running a race this weekend, all the best of luck from us both – do let us know how you got on, we can’t wait to see your medals, and I personally can’t wait to burst into tears when I see Hol crossing the finish line.
