Episode notes

Hey! This season, powered by Nike, we're homing in on all things running. You can expect tips and tactics from Nike Run Coaches, alongside powerful stories from extraordinary women - guaranteed to spark your motivation this back-to-school season. 

 

This week Roisín is joined by broadcaster, philanthropist and former Women’s Health cover star Katie Piper. She shares her current running MO and how lacing up her trainers helps shift her mood and elevate her day. Whether that’s commuting between meetings in the city or heading out with a pal - and a head torch - for a pre-dawn session in the hills near her home, before her busy day begins. A long-time champion of moving your body to support your mental health, Katie discusses how running increased her self-belief and why - crucially - it could do the same for you.

 

In today's Coaching Clinic, Katie is joined by Nike Run Coach and top physiotherapist Manni Ovola. He arms her with the tools she needs to smash her own running goal: running her best 5k.
