Solocast: Year End Reflections and 2024 Intentions

Rivka was so much fun to chat to! She started running in her late 50's in 2013, and ran her first half marathon in 2015. She's now completed quite a few road half marathons, a few trail races, and two marathons. She is  a mother of five sons, and grandmother to one and one on the way. Rivka is also a birth attendant, attending some births and teaching a birth attendant course. She is also training for her first 50k! We chat about how you have to move your body to stay healthy and strong.

Anushay has always defined herself as an Academic but struggled to call herself an athlete. She moved to Canada from Pakistan and quickly became involved in the trail running community and with a bit of work is now both an athlete and an ultrarunner. 

Anushay was inspired to go further and push her body and mind to complete her first 50km last summer. She has an amazing energy and will leave you feeling like doing hard things is exciting.
