Every Mile Matters Ann-Elise Lady

Fredric, a Marathon aficionado who combines his love of this classic distance with his love of travel. 28 marathons under his belt, Fredric has some wisdom to share! But his love of running extends to trails, the community, and general physical and mental health and well-being.

In this episode I interview Johanna and Joakim, whom I met through Malmö Gerillalöpare and who continue to be major contributors to breathing life into the group. We talk about running with sandals, classical music and their life as freelance musicians, the running community, and their passions and goals.

Marathoner, race director, blogger, and party planner are just a few of the hats Anna wears. Just a month shy of Stävie Trail, Anna also tells the story of how the local community race came to be, and the plans to celebrate the big 10-year anniversary this year. Oh, and listen if you want to hear (according to Anna) what makes a really good semla.

From asphalt marathoner to ultra trail runner, group running is really what took Katarina’s running to new levels. A mom of 3 with a strong interest in fitness and training, Kattis talks about how she has juggled running and family, how she is facing her current running interruption due to injury, and what her dreams and aspirations are. If this episode doesn’t make you want to sign up for your longest distance yet, I’m not sure what will!

Johan, another running legend. With just 10 years of solid running under his belt, Johan found his calling and saw incredible development in his running through the years. His secret weapon? Consistency. Just a week shy of Johan’s next 100 miler, we talk about Kullamannen and UTMB, Johan’s view on training, and some of his goals and ambitions. Enjoy!

An important correction. ☝🏽
