This week on RunPod, Jenni is joined by two guests who live and breathe the sport of running: Lily Canter and Emma Wilkinson.

Together, Lily and Emma are also the co-authors of Ultra Women: The Trailblazers Defying Sexism in Sport - a groundbreaking book that shines a light on the women smashing barriers and proving that endurance has no gender limits. Drawing on science, storytelling, and lived experience, they reveal how women are outlasting men in ultra events, and why the running world needs a rethink.

Lily and Emma bring boundless passion to a sport that doesn’t get harder with age - it evolves with you. From the joy of a first 5K to the grit of 100-mile ultras, running is a journey that shifts shape as life changes, and these two know that better than most.

This episode will give you the motivation - and the evidence - to lace up and keep going.
