This week's episode explores highs, lows and lessons from a new runner. We’re joined by Michelle Sinclair, who started running only 13 months ago.

We chat about her “why” for getting started, the benefits she's found from it and how she’s approached training — from 5K and 10K plans through to training for her first half marathon — and what’s worked along the way.

We also get into the story of a friendly (but very real) rivalry with her husband, Kevin, which led to a bold bet at the White Horse Half Marathon… complete with a 30-minute head start.

 Did she beat him? You’ll have to listen to find out.
