Ep.13 - Becoming an Ultra Runner: Coaching, Mindset & Mountains with Mel Peake & Coach Iwan Evans

from Eat Train Live · host Kelly Leigh Evans

Mel Peake joined Eat Train Live as someone sporty who had fallen out of a training routine and wanted to find consistency, improve fitness, and lose a bit of weight. What actually happened after working with Kel, and more recently Iwan, is that she discovered a love of training and running, built fitness and strength like never before, and went on to complete half marathons, the London Marathon, and the epic UTS 55K mountain ultra marathon. Kel chats with Mel and her ETL coach Iwan about how structured, personalised coaching, quality training, strong coach-athlete teamwork, communication, celebrating wins, and balancing work, life, and family helped her make it happen.

Sermons | Countryside Bible Church Countryside Bible Church At Countryside Bible Church, we equip believers to joyfully live holy lives, to serve one another, and to share the gospel of Jesus Christ, all to the glory of God. We are committed to a high view of God, and a high view of Scripture. 2 Old Ladies Walking Rozee 2 Old Ladies Walking features the journeys, insights, and light conversation between Liz and Rosie, two women of a certain age who live in the Hudson Valley of New York. From pelvic floor challenges and life with young adult children to food, bird calls, fear of “mad lamb” disease, and myriad topics in between, we cover it all while walking on the scenic trails of the northeast, or wherever our travels take us. Join us and have a listen! Wounded Warriors of the Cross Gary Pastoral and clergy mental health is a mostly ignored area, especially by those who live their lives as pastors in the clergy. The stigma of mental health within those who serve in the shadow of the cross is something that invokes the stigma of fear. Many of those in the clergy will choose to suffer in their despair rather than reaching out for help. Sometimes those suffering choose to wait until it's too late to get the real help that they need. At Wounded Warriors of the Cross our mission is to lift the stigma and the veil of silence that encompasses clergy mental health and assist those who suffer in silence. Wounded Warriors of the Cross is here to shed the light of Christ's love into those dark places.
