She Runs Ultras

Have you ever felt like you’re doing all the right things…reading the articles, trying the plans, tweaking your training and yet somehow your progress feels stalled?
In this episode, we’re talking about one of the most common ways runners unknowingly sabotage their training especially in the age of social media and endless online advice.
When you’re not sure what to do, it’s easy to start grabbing ideas from everywhere:
a training plan here, a workout there, a tip from someone in a Facebook group…
Before long you’re trying seven different approaches at once and wondering why nothing seems to be working.
In this episode, I’m sharing a message from a coaching client that perfectly illustrates this trap and why constantly changing plans, piling on more training, or chasing quick reassurance can actually derail your progress.
We’ll talk about:
Why doing more training often makes things worse
The hidden downside of following too many plans at once
Why most runners abandon a strategy before it ever has time to work
How reflection and patience are the real keys to long-term progress
If you’ve been feeling stuck, frustrated, or like your training is a little chaotic lately… this episode will help you take a step back and get refocused.

Somewhere along the way, a lot of women start downplaying their running goals.
“It’s just a 50K.”
“I mean… there are people running way farther than me.”
In this episode, I’m stepping in as the 🧚 Permission Fairy 🧚 and officially giving you permission to want what you want when it comes to running your first or farthest ultra.
We’ll talk about why so many women hesitate to go after bigger running goals, the subtle ways we minimize our own ambitions, and why giving yourself permission is often the first step toward doing something you didn’t think was possible.

In this episode, I’m talking honestly about what it feels like when your body stops responding the way it used to and how perimenopause has shifted my experience as both an athlete and a coach.
This is not a deep dive into hormone science.
Instead, this is a conversation about:
Sleep changes
Weight fluctuations
Mood shifts (and yes…rage 😅)
Random joint aches
Focus + memory issues
Nausea, dizziness, and fatigue
And the mental side of feeling like you can’t “control” outcomes the way you used to
We talk about what happens when:
Effort doesn’t guarantee results
The same training produces different outcomes
You can’t win by simply pushing harder
Your old training templates stop working
And most importantly: how to adapt.
I share what I’m personally changing in my own training right now:
Prioritizing sleep above everything
Condensing strength work for better return on investment
Adjusting fueling quantity (especially post-200 miler life)
Using mobility work to understand what my body can and can’t currently tolerate
Letting go of the need to control everything
If you’re in this phase or even wondering if you might be, I hope this episode helps normalize what can feel isolating and frustrating.

In this episode, I’m sharing a recent conversation with one of my 1:1 clients who’s training for 100 miles.
She listed everything she’s juggling — work, family, aging parents, social media, world events, health concerns — and then said:
“I just don’t know how I’m going to do it.”
And that’s the point.
Sometimes it’s not your fitness.
It’s not your plan.
It’s not your long run.
It’s the mental load.
When everything feels urgent and important, your attention gets split.
And when your attention is split, your training starts to feel heavier than it should.
In this episode, we talk about:
Why you don’t need to know “how” yet
The hidden cost of constant input
Comparison (Strava, early morning posts, influencer culture)
The discipline of opting out
How to “build your bubble” and protect your focus
Your attention is finite.
If you don’t choose what gets access to it, something else will.

This year, I’m taking a few things off the table when it comes to my running.
First: I’m done calling runs “bad.”
Hard? Sure. Uncomfortable? Absolutely.
But “bad” doesn’t actually tell us anything useful—and it usually creates more noise than clarity.
Second: I’m not overreacting to one data point.
One tough run. One off week. One moment of doubt.
None of those define your training—or your potential.
In this episode, I talk about why these two decisions matter, how they’ve changed the way I approach training, and why perspective—not perfection—is what actually carries you through long seasons and long races.
If you’ve ever questioned your fitness because of one run… this one’s for you.
