Running with a Different Lens with Lydia O'Donnell

Shifting from dancer to runner in her teenage years, Lydia is now an elite runner that is passionate about sharing her story and insights - to allow for more of us to see running with a different lens. Her honesty and vulnerability within this discussion is breathtaking. She takes us through her personal challenges in navigating both body image and pressure for leanness - and what this led to in experiencing Relative Energy Deficiency a few years ago. Something you can find out more about here.  We speak a lot about mental health in this episode, so if anything spoken about resonates, please reach out to the Butterfly Foundation (for Eating Disorder support) or Beyond Blue (for anxiety, depression or suicide support).
