Ep126 - Simone Hayes - President of AURA (Australian Ultra Runners Association)
Description
Simone's passion for running is unquestionable and her involvement in the sport spans the entire spectrum of roles. From President of AURA to sweeper at the UTA 11km, Simone does it all and does it well!
This week Haddy chats with Sim about her cracks at the Western States 100, UTMB (TDS) and the mighty Coast to Kosciuszko. We get into resilience through preparation with her coaching group and discuss the amazing work AURA is doing to represent and grow the sport we love so much.
We dive into the new and exciting proposed formation of the Australian Ultra and Trail Running Association (AUTRA) and the benefits to all runners from grass roots to the elite. Simone also details the progress of the bid to get trail running a spot at the 2032 Olympics in Brisbane and how the formation of AUTRA is such an integral part of the process.
Always a pleasure to chat with such a passionate and dedicated volunteer and runner!
Enjoy!
