Good Humans with Cooper Chapman
#143 Vanessa Angerer - Endurance Athlete/Coach
Season 1, Ep. 143
•
Vanessa Angerer has one of the most insane stories I have heard! And is training me for my 100 days to 100kms challenge.
She grew up on the Gold Coast with a very unique family life. Throughout school, she was very into her sport and became a karate blackbelt!
Once finishing school she went straight into university studying accounting and thought that was going to be her future. After 6 months of work, she went overseas for a 3 months trip where she tore her ACL. This led Vanessa into a dark place but she turned her victim mindset around and found the drive to come back stronger. This is where she got heavily into running once she was fully healed.
Vanessa ran multiple marathons, and ultra-marathons in 2022, and in 2023 she completed a 100-mile race, 164kms! This episode shares some incredible stories of her running journey.
We also cover some topics regarding my running training.
