Challenges of Ultra Running & Chronic Illness - Jen Scotney - Author of Running Through The Dark

from The Running Hub

Jen Scotney, author of Running Through The Dark joins us to talk through some challenging topics which she shared in her recent book.  This is TW for topics including grief, chronic illnesses and childlessness.  Jen was born in the Peak District and set her sights on running the whole of the Penine Way, but through some various circumstances including chronic illness and injuries, the story doesn't pan out as she expected.  In this week's episode Jen and I explored wha ultra marathons feel like and the motivation behind them, running through grief and how powerful connection truly is.  This isn't a podcast that is all rainbows and sunshines but is about a resilient woman who's learning to live with the experiences she's had and what normal now looks like.  Jen also has her own podcast - Resilience Rising Podcast.  And you can buy her book here - https://www.adventurebooks.com/products/running-through-the-dark-jen-scotney?_pos=1&_sid=65ed503f9&_ss=r   Register for the TRY TRI course HERE.
