Listen "Ep 15: Post-Race Headspace & The Forgotten Half of Your Core"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textRochelle kicks off with a truly wild “What I Saw On My Run” — a woman taking her birds for a walk… in a backpack. From there, the chat shifts to something every runner knows too well: the emotional rollercoaster that hits in the first 20 minutes after a race. Kate and Rochelle unpack how quickly we judge ourselves, the importance of not letting post-race adrenaline write your race report, and why comparing your current self to your 2019 self (or anyone else) is a fast track to misery.Kate opens up about her Abu Dhabi marathon lessons, Rochelle shares her Singapore 10K mindset reset, and together they explore how failure teaches us more than perfect races ever could. Then, Kate gets nerdy about the “forgotten half” of the core — your back — explaining why strong erector spinae matter for running economy and how to train them with two simple, brutal-but-brilliant exercises (spoiler: the reverse plank will hurt your soul).It’s equal parts relatable runner therapy, science-backed strength chat, and the usual dose of laughs — including painted-on abs, missed high-fives, and an unexpected Backstreet Boys cameo.
