Guest:

Nicola “Nikki” Frost – new ultra-runner, city-based trail dreamer, and daughter of podcast host Michelle Frost. (Yes, you read that right.)

Get Ready For:

What happens when your mum finishes a 200-miler and then invites you to do it with her? In this intro episode, we meet Nicola Frost, a relative newcomer to ultras who’s stepping (literally) into the wild unknown of Delirious West 2026—with her mum by her side.

Why You’ll Love This Episode:

•🏃‍♀️ From 15-year running break to 200-mile dreams: How Nikki went from zero to Surf Coast 100K in under 2 years—and now has her eyes on something even bigger.

•🧠 Mind over miles: Why she’s drawn to the mental game of ultrarunning and how she hopes Delirious will push her into new layers of self-awareness.

•🧭 Concrete runner goes rogue: Based in central Melbourne, Nikki’s navigating how to train for a remote trail ultra with limited access to trails.

•💬 Real talk on family dynamics: Candid banter, start-line nerves, and the question on everyone’s mind—will they still be talking at the finish line?

•💡 Bonus laughs: The origin of “Sean Kaesler miles,” falling over on tarmac, and the dream to run a relay across Europe.

Follow Nikki’s Journey:

Each month, we’ll check in with Nikki to see how she’s training, how the family dynamics are holding up, and how she’s preparing to take on the biggest adventure of her life (so far) alongside her mum.
