• The comparison trap
    Feb 23 2025

    Happy Monday friends!

    This week, we answered a listener question: How do I stop comparing my running to others? We unpack why we compare ourselves to each other, why it’s so common in the running community, our own experiences, and how to overcome it!

    At the end of the episode, we also have some new running recommendations for you—a fun idea for your next getaway and a recipe we are loving!

  • Why you should probably get your iron checked
    Feb 16 2025

    Happy Monday Cheeky friends!

    This week, we spoke with the wonderful endocrinologist Dr. Izzy Smith about (drum roll please)...IRON! We discussed the importance of iron in daily life and running, how to know if you’re low in iron, and what you can do to help your levels.

    At the end of the episode, one of us reveals we were prompted to get a blood test after speaking with Dr. Smith aaand let's just say we're glad we did.

    We also have a very special announcement for our listeners who live near Sydney for International Women's Day!

    We hope you enjoyed this week's episode..let us know <3

  • Are you addicted to running?
    Feb 2 2025

    Hiya legends <3

    This week, we’re unpacking whether we’re *actually* addicted to running and, if so, whether the pros outweigh the cons. At the end of the episode, we also want to hear your take on this week’s spicy listener question!

    Cheeky Run Club's first birthday party is also this Saturday in Melbourne! We’re celebrating with a 5km run followed by coffee/breaky/cake/chats.

    If walking is more your style, that’s fine as well! Every pace and running ability is welcome (this includes our four-legged friends too!)

  • Protein for runners 101
    Dec 22 2024

    Hello cheeky friends!

    This episode is all about protein for running. We speak to leading sports dietician and wonderful human Jess Rothwell to get an understanding of what protein actually is, how it helps us in our training, recovery and general life, what happens if you don’t get enough of it, how much you actually need, and the most common mistakes she sees amateur runners (including us!!) make when it comes to protein. We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did - thanks again Jess for all your help!

    We the debriefed about Anna's podium finish on the weekend and discussed the yearly dilemma of how to balance running with Christmas/holidays.
