Summary

This week, Jenni sits down with Tina Muir, a hardcore pavement pounder and host of the podcast, ‘Running for Real’. Once an elite runner, Tina was at the peak of her career when she made the snap decision to quit running, to improve her health. She had just achieved a 2:36 marathon PB and had been representing Great Britain doing the sport she loved....so why on earth did she want to stop? You’ll have to listen to find out. An episode that will absolutely keep you going if you listen whilst you run!
