Description

We are incredibly honoured to welcome running legend Paula Radcliffe to the pod. From world champion and marathon record-holder to mother, podcaster, and all-around inspiration, Paula shares her insights on exercise, performance, and women’s health across the lifespan.

In this episode, we explore everything from the impact of periods on training, to body image, RED-S, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and staying strong through menopause. Paula reflects on her own experiences and offers advice for young athletes, women returning to fitness, and anyone navigating the unique challenges of balancing training, career, and family life.

We also tackle myths about women, running, and exercise, and debunk the misconceptions that still linger around periods, pregnancy, and female physiology. Whether you’re a runner, a parent, or someone simply trying to stay active, this episode is packed with insight, guidance, and inspiration to help you move through life with confidence.
