Welcome to episode 174 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.

Hungover running

Now. Seasonally appropriate content warning here. Would you run with a hangover? We have many experiences of doing just that, and so we discuss what we reckon is actually happening inside us when we decide to go for a run after having a skin-full the night before.

Pod Squad half

Then we have an enormously important announcement – we’re teaming up with Sports Tours International again to launch a Pod Squad run. This time it’s a half marathon in New York with us in April. The Real Simple Women’s Half Marathon is on April 28th, and if you want to take part, check out all the details at sportstoursinternational.co.uk/event/womensrunningnewyork/ - link in the show notes if that’s too long, and loads more details on the pod!

Half marathon plans

Then I talk about the half marathon I’m going to be doing before then in February, which rather annoyingly I have to start training for now. If anyone out there has a half marathon to train for in the meantime, do listen in to us over the next couple of months as we begin our training for these two half marathons and you can run along with us.

And before we start, here’s a little freebie for you – we’ve made a little mini version of brilliant How To Run 5K guide, and you can download it for free at womensrunning.co.uk/run. If you like it, the big version is available to buy right now at shop.womensrunning.co.uk!
