This week, I talk to Kirsten about taking on her first 100km event at Oscars Hut 2 Hut.

We talk about what kind of training she had to do, how she adapted her training based on limited access to similar terrain and what the first day was like.

We also talk a bit about the things that might stop someone from training or entering ultra trail events and what can be done to make it more accessible to people.

You can check her on instagram at @shelovestorun and connect with us through the Operation Move Sisterhood in Run Club

If you would like to join us for Learn to Run we’d love to have you – it starts on Monday!

I bought these shoes (the @nikerunning Invincible) I bought these shoes (the @nikerunning Invincible) from @therunningcompany_adelaide and because small business is awesome, they emailed me to ask me for my feedback and I thought as well as replying I’d do a review here too!

It’s not a fast shoe, but a shoe I absolutely love for easy and recovery runs. It’s pop and energy return just makes them more fun. I feel like it’s sweet spot is up to about 15km, beyond that I’d probably pick a different shoe. 

Because the foam is kind of squishy I like it best for flat runs or gentle hills. 

I think Nike are getting a whole lot better in the toe box and this feels more generous than some of my other options too. 

I’m very neutral but I feel like if your tendency is for your foot to roll a bit then this isn’t going to work for you, you need to be landing in the middle of the shoe to get the benefit of the wider platform. 

But I think my favourite thing about them is with the energy I get back I feel like my posture is better thought it the run.

Don’t let a stressful week detract from the fact Don’t let a stressful week detract from the fact that once it stops raining (finally!) it is the most amazing time of the year for running. 

12km rolling hills at an easy effort level this morning while I was listening to the @strongerbyscience podcast. 

It’s Friday, about to head into study break so I can start making some progress on my essays and it’s the day between birthdays so I do t have to make anyone a cake today 😉
Someone has a birthday today and I guess I do too, Someone has a birthday today and I guess I do too, in some ways. 

Ten years ago a midwife told me I was 4cm dilated and I thought I don’t think I can do this. But then they got a second opinion and I was 10cm and ready to push. She was tiny (6 pounds) but there has never been anything small about her. 

She was an escape artist as a toddler, and now she feeds me cheesy romantic lines off YouTube, but mostly her big love is her big sister.

Me now: what?! I’ve got a workout this week? 😜

Pretty wet out there but a great way to kick off the week of a lot of adulting. Like seriously a lot. Calling plumbers, getting the car registered, two kid birthdays. TWO. 

Nothing like a hard session to make yourself feel so much more capable of everything else before you.

I saw a fun meme which was to list your full name I saw a fun meme which was to list your full name by its meaning. I don’t have a middle name because my parents said one name was hard enough. 

Anyway my name by meaning is

Life, Warlike. 

And man, it seems like a war sometimes. 

But I get to go out and be my full self so I’ll take that.
Once again, paying the rent on my leisurely mornin Once again, paying the rent on my leisurely morning start. It’s quite a nice time of year for afternoon running, except there are far too many dogs awake and you hope they are fenced but you never really know if they are chasing you behind a fence or if they are just chasing you. 

15km today for what was supposed to be a mid week long run but got pushed back because life’s been happening at warp speed. 

Starting to feel pretty smooth even uphill which is a nice feeling 💜

As distance runners we are conditioned to always h As distance runners we are conditioned to always having more in the tank, always holding something in reserve. Never redline. 

And mostly that leads to intelligent pacing and great training. 

But sometimes you just need to go all out, be fearless and see how deep the well is. 

The gift you get at the end is knowing there was nothing left at the end. You get to leave everything out there with it. All your anxiety, all your passion, all your anger, all your joy, all of the parts of yourself that you compartmentalise to make them acceptable. It’s all out there. 

But they aren’t jumbled anymore they are clear and sharp and vivid and you can pack them back up and know who you are.

And a return of the run-crossfit-run sandwich. 

Run 20 minutes

Crossfit we had 10:00 of 1 deadlift @ 75kg, 1 back squat @ 45kg and each round the reps go up by 1. I got to the rounds of 6 by which time it was getting spicy 🌶 🔥

Then I ran for an hour. 

Got a bit wet, but now I only have to worry about where the three breakfasts are coming from

The decision not to run before doing the #crossfit The decision not to run before doing the #crossfitopen 21.3 and 21.4 was a good one 😜

I’ll run later. Meanwhile 90 squats was more than enough!
“Do not try to save the whole world or do anythi “Do not try to save
the whole world
or do anything grandiose.
Instead, create
a clearing
in the dense forest
of your life
and wait there
patiently,
until the song
that is yours alone to sing
falls into your open cupped hands
and you recognize and greet it.
Only then will you know
how to give yourself
to this world so worthy of rescue.”
