Debbie Martin-Consani and Siobhan Brennan

In this episode, I’m joined by Debbie Martin-Consani and Siobhan Brennan and together we delve into a subject that goes far beyond ultra racing; the menopause. We talk openly about the causes, the symptoms, the impact on training and recovery and we tackle the practical realities: HRT, supplements, sleep, nutrition and how to navigate performance when your body is changing. It’s an honest, grounded discussion about what it really looks like to keep showing up regardless of age and ability. And we finish with a message that applies whether you’re chasing podiums or simply trying to stay consistent through a tough season: be steady, be patient and above all, be kind to yourself.

Eric Keeler

Robin and I chat to Eric from Rasselbock Running. We discover where the name Rasselbock comes from and learn about his event format, which is focused on his runners and the community he has built up. Most of Rasselbock events are timed, which makes them inclusive to everyone, whether they want to complete one loop or race against the clock to see how many loops they can get in the time. We discuss the community that he has built around this and the concept certainly seems to work, as he now puts on 36 events a year.
