In this episode I interview Simone, five time world multisport champion. We are both currently injured and this podcast covers our injuries, a little bit about our recoveries and what the future holds for both of us in terms of our sport. It is a great casual conversation covering the ins and outs of being an athlete, being injured and our expectations on ourselves. It's a long one but buckle in, it's full of laughs and fun.
My long awaited recap of the 2025 Kathmandu coast to coast. I chat about my race day, a little bit about my preparation and ultimately how it all came together for a smashing longest day. It's a thrill to be able to race this race, I absolutely love it. I love the training I love the racing and I love the way that pushing boundaries makes us feel so listen in for a great recap of a great race.
In this episode we chat about building blocks and foundations and the time that it takes to do this when we are on a new trajectory for a goal. We chat about how it may not be the timeline that we want and that things may take longer than we expect. I recently had surgery on my arm and in my recovery, I've had to be in my own new shoes, that also put me into my clients shoes, by learning about timelines goals and reaching targets that ultimately often take longer than we want. I've got to exp...
2024 is the year we changed our vision, goals and offers here at The Rig. We shut down our mobile/ group fitness classes and inadvertently started a gym on our farm. Listen to how that came about, what led us there, what visions we have for the future and to chat about how its ok to change your goals. And just because something doesn't pan out the way you thought it would.. doesn't automatically mean failure either. Maybe your decisions will grow you, and allow others to benefit too.
How our body responds to how we nourish it can be key to our metabolism. Slow, fast.. is often a response. So how do we know if we have a slow metabolism or if its our whoremoans? I briefly explain what can happen when we reduce our food intake on our metabolism and how peri and menopause may also be a factor.
Dan Jones, a Goats Pass guide by day, runner extraordinaire by ... well all the time actually. Dan is humble, kind and extremely talented as a marathon and ultra distance runner. Six time Kepler winner, 5th place getter Western States and UTMB finisher.. we catch up with Dan and chat about his wins, nutrition, and what it takes for him to be the top 1 % of his sport. Epic chats about trails, tips and all the things in between.

We can do hard things. But we also may have deeper thoughts and issues at play. Finding the appropriate help and tools to deal with this is pivotal to how well we can move forward and heal. Don't allow past experiences and trauma to continue to have a hold over you. Easier said than done.. but often what's looking back at us in the mirror isn't what we want to see. Even if its at goal weight......
Why aren't you letting that person have a crack at being you? You can't be the person you want to be if you're constantly shoving yourself in a box. Let go and go get it... you can and are the person you want to be... just nourish yourself and start to allow yourself to see you for who you are. Maybe you've been there all along. x Trigger warning.. lots of dog movements and sounds and I drop ALL of the F bombs.
Today we chat about what you can do when you hit a plateau or if you hit a wall with your training and or nutrition. Having the right tools to implement can really assist you to stay on target to your goals and work through the times when things don't always seem to be working. Trust the process and the process will work.

For the month of October, I held a steps challenge for anyone wanting to increase their steps. On the line was $150 Rig Dollars.. and man what a blast it was to watch. I chat about what I learned from those whom took part, patterns I saw forming and where I hope it takes every one from here. Congratulations to all of those whom took part. It was epic.
In todays podcast I chat about diets that cost a fortune and if they're really worth their money. The diet worth the most is one that you can sustain and stick to.. so what red flags do we need to look for, when trying to find the right one?
So what do you have to worry about? This episode we chat about ditching the flashy commercialised bullshit and taking up exactly what it is that will get you to where it is you want to be.

#59 The Divorce List

2023-09-2518:53

In this episode I chat about the divorce list that Brendan and I have, how it came about and what the list consists of. It's a way of having boundaries when someone like me, has a do to list that makes others want to faint.....
Or lack there of? We didn't get to where we are currently overnight, so why do we have such high and fast expectations of where we want to be? In today's episode we talk about managing our impatience so we can deal with the time it is going to take to get us to where it is we want to be.
Coz it won't work. If you find yourself in the pantry every night eating all the things, I explain in this episode exactly why that is and why it keeps repeating itself.
We can loathe change all we like, but to get to somewhere we've never been, we have to do something we've never done. Learning how to manage change for the positive is key to being able to sustain it.
