Run With It
Sole Sisters - 18: The ex-files - a marathon redemption tale
One year on, Alice opens up about the heartbreak, anger and a low-mileage training that turned Melbourne Marathon into a personal redemption story. From moving states and Eat-Pray-Love inspired therapy, to proving to herself she could finish 42.2 km on her own terms, it’s raw and relatable for anyone who’s ever run through a break up or other tough times.
Along the way Elise shares her own New York Marathon training update (including a lonely 32k long run digesting the Geelong Cats’ recent Grand Final loss). There’s also a cameo from a very attentive pool lifeguard, and we swap notes on Berlin’s hottest marathon and Harry Styles running incognito.
