Episode Description

Some running stories start with a race. Nicole’s started with a pair of worn Reeboks and a cotton T-shirt.

The day before her 40th birthday, she went for her first jog; a spontaneous decision that changed everything. From San Rafael to New York, Nicole discovered how running could rebuild confidence, reshape body image, and connect her to a global community.

In this funny, fearless, and deeply human episode, Joshie and Matty chat with Nicole about juggling hypoglycaemia, recovering from a stress fracture, and the kind of race-day mishaps you just can’t make up.

In this episode:

• How Nicole’s first 5K sparked a lifelong love of running
• Managing hypoglycaemia while training and racing
• Finding connection through international run clubs
• Rebuilding after injury and rediscovering confidence
• Rituals (cough; superstitions) and what’s on her running horizon
