Takes 2 mins, promise: https://ex-plorsurvey.com/survey/selfserve/550/g517/250305?list=3MY GUESTS THIS WEEK: HELEN THORNE & EMMA CAMPBELLThis week, I’m joined by two of my brilliant friends – Helen Thorne and Emma Campbell – to talk honestly about running. But not in the elite-athlete, £200-leggings, nutrition-plan kind of way. This is about resentment runs, running in your pants, and crying in the middle of a 10K.Helen – one half of comedy duo Scummy Mummies – only started running at 39. She’s now completed nine marathons and all six of the world’s major races. Emma is a writer, a mother of four (including teenage triplets), and a secondary cancer patient who discovered running in the middle of chemotherapy.Together, we talk about why running feels so hard to start, how it can help you heal, and the joy of doing it imperfectly. We cover everything from chafing solutions to playlist rituals to learning how not to give a toss about what you look like in lycra.Whether you’re already a runner or the idea of jogging makes you break out in a rash, this episode is a celebration of movement on your own terms – and of the strange magic that happens when you put one foot in front of the other.LET’S STAY IN TOUCH🗣 Got something to share?
