Welcome to another episode!
This week I speak to Anna Rutherford - ultra runner, lawyer and mum of 2, her youngest being just 11 months old when we spoke.
In May 2021 Anna hit the headlines when she ran the 216 miles of the Southern Upland Way in 62.5 hours - getting a female FKT in the process.
Anna went from running short distances straight to ultra distances in 2010. She found she was too sick to run during her first pregnancy but during her second, she ran up to the day before she gave birth and was back running soon after.
On her day off Anna runs 50-60 miles and as I follow (stalk) her on Strava - I know that her pace is phenomenal.
Anna talks about the difficulties of juggling mum guilt, time and training but knows that it is important to find time for the things you love and to show your children that they too can achieve their dreams.
I really hope you enjoy this episode. If so, please take the time to leave a review on itunes and share the episode on your social media or with someone you think might enjoy it.
Happy listening!
