Lindsay Renee: How COVID Changed My Running Habits - The Everyday Runner
Manage episode 445543892 series 3568523
In this episode of The Everyday Runner, host Erin Maher interviews Lindsay Renee, who shares her inspiring journey from being a reluctant runner to an ultra marathoner. Lindsay recounts how the COVID-19 pandemic initially sparked her interest in running as a way to stay active, eventually leading her to discover a supportive and motivating running community.
Throughout the episode, Lindsay contrasts the laid-back atmosphere of ultra running with the more competitive nature of road races. She emphasizes the importance of fueling with real food, particularly as a gluten-free runner, and highlights how walking during long runs can be both helpful and accepted in ultra events. She shares stories from her longest run, a grueling 64-mile race during a Yeti endurance event, and explains her preference for loop courses to minimize gear carrying.
Lindsay also offers practical advice for new runners, including avoiding vegetables before a race due to potential stomach issues, and shares some lighthearted moments from her own experiences, including the fun, casual atmosphere of Disney races. Finally, she reflects on the role of a supportive partner in enhancing the running experience and discusses her upcoming races and future goals.
