Description

To vote for Well Far to win the Listener’s Choice Award, please visit: https://www.britishpodcastawards.com/vote Born to Run is an epic adventure that began with one simple question: Why does my foot hurt? Today, Amy talks to inspirational author Christopher McDougall who penned the book that shows us that everything we thought we knew about running is wrong and how to unlock that potential. We learn of the reasons that provoked the writing of this inspirational read, now followed by 'Running With Sherman', which documents the (many) learnings of running with a Donkey (?!), and Chris talks us through some of the running theories and techniques he's picked up along the way that have enabled him to cover the vast distances that he has achieved to date. A shift in pace from the usual chats, but a delightful listen none-theless! Back with us on the cool-down today is the wonderful Annie Clarke, whose stretch you can find at the 42 minute mark. Run: 42 minsWell Chill Flow: 12 mins Join Amy Lane on Instagram: @wellness_ed #wellfarJoin Annie Clark on Instagram: @mind_body_bowl, https://mindbodybowl.co.uk/Join Christopher McDoughall at: https://www.chrismcdougall.com/ With thanks to F45, head to www.f45training.com/wellfar for more details Topics:Reasons behind the booksHow bare-foot running can maximise your potentialThe '100-Up' techniqueRunning with a donkeyThe 'I'm not a runner' mythRunning communitiesRunning for mental health  Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
