We go international again, this time I get to talk with fellow Team RunRun coach and all-around awesome athlete and human being, Des Clark.
Des has been running for over 30 years and it was about eight years ago she switched to trail and ultra running and started coaching,
Her journey, rooted in authenticity is inspiring, uplifting and shows the power of community and connection.
We talked about:
- The early days and trying to find her tribe
- How her running journey evolved through a series of life events
- Her relationship with alcohol and going sober
- Balancing her running, coaching and day job with being the mother of two teenage boys
- Some of the awesome races that she has taken part including the insane Cocodona 250
- Connection is at the heart of who she is and how she coaches
The Hot Takes:
- Be true to yourself and live with authenticity
- Community and connections used to fulfil, support and energise
- Getting the balance of being a parent right and role modelling
