The Women's Running Podcast

Welcome to episode 239 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.

Jeans and pastries

We start with the hottest topic in the running calendar – the sorts of jeans we like to wear. And then straight on to Croissant-gate, obviously, as that hasn’t been cleared up yet.

Marathon training

Then we’re getting into some running chat, don’t hate us for this, you have to give us a bit of leeway, because, just in case you hadn’t noticed, we’re training for a marathon here. And a quick shout out to Marathon Tours who have organised our hotel rooms the night before – if you’re running and you’ve not got a place to stay yet, go to marathontours.com for all the info.
