Tough Girl PodcastAllie Bailey - Ultra runner, Running 1,000+ miles from Lands End to John O'Groats in 35-daysAllie spent a lot of her life seeking approval from people she thought were cool, believing that in order to be successful, you had to act a certain way. For her, success is seeing someone who doesn't believe they can do something transform into someone who does. After working for major record labels for 12 years, Allie realised that music, which she had once loved, was slowly killing her.
