Welcome to episode 262 of the Women’s Running podcast. I’m your host Esther Newman and she’s your other host Holly Taylor. On this podcast we talk about health, politics, stuff on TV and what we ate last night. Occasionally, we talk about running.

This starts off as one of those therapy episodes. We launch into a lack of jolliness and motivation in the middle of summer, while we’re trying to navigate weather that doesn’t feel too brilliant (don’t worry, we perk up fairly quickly!). We talk about how we’re adapting our training plans to fit us and the weather, rather than adhering to them religiously.

We also discuss the summer juggle, and how we’re managing the feeling of overwhelm. One way, of course, has been to celebrate the Euro’s, so we chat about women’s Football, and how brilliant these role models are for kids.

Speaking of which, we feel we need to continue our chats about PE lessons – there’s more from you lot, which is fascinating, and we have some ideas for new PE lessons in the future, and I think we’re on to something!

At the end, Holly talks about the very exciting thing she’s doing on 13th September, when she’ll be interviewing the legendary Kathrine Switzer at the Take the Baton conference. Make sure you pick up your tickets to go and watch! Google the Get The Baton conference if the link doesn’t work in the show notes!
