Sole Sisters – 27: Is It Possible to Love Running Too Much?
About this episode
Elise and Alice discuss finding a balanced relationship with running amidst injuries and life changes.
Elise’s latest injury has given her a good dose of perspective, and the beers are tasting pretty crisp on the other side (let's be honest)! In this episode of Sole Sisters, Elise and Alice talk about doing less (running wise), ramping up the parts of life that can fall by the wayside during a training block, and finding a healthier, more balanced relationship with the sport they still love (possibly too much). Naturally, there are plenty of side quests: Alice’s rapidly expanding tattoo collection, New York’s sweaty summer running scene, watching the Commonwealth Games from a crumbling villa in Crete, and plans involving Sydney Marathon and a bougie lap of Mont Blanc.
