Since we started the Young Hearts, Run Free podcast we've had the pleasure to meet tons of new folk who as well as entertain us also inspire & motivate us. Some of those folk are guests who have given up their time to blether with us and pass on words of wisdom and stories from their adventures. We've also been lucky enough to meet loads of new folk through our Twitter and Instagram pages. In Season 3 Episode 13 we managed to catch up with one such super likeable person. Cumbria based Jodie Laird has been entertaining us on her own candid Instagram posts since way back. Our worlds kinda collided in Coniston in the Lake District a few weeks back, where Jodie took on the challenge of the LL100. A lady with a certain way with words Jodie gives us a warts n all look at her ultra running career. There are some highs, there are some lows. It's all uber relatable sh*t though and we love Jodie's approach to ultra training and racing. In a refreshingly honest take on things we lift the lid on some memorable experiences from fell races, to learning her ultra 'craft' to finishing epic sh*t like WHW races n all that. A certain synergy emerges with a mutual love of scran and run rewards, 'Jodes' also likes a sweary just as much as we do. We barely even touch on Jodie's recent experience at this years UTLD, who even knows what that stands for?? Enjoy this super easy listening episode with one of our many many new pals. Read all about Jodie's Ultra races on her brilliantly written blog here Jodes Running Blog
