Geek Girl Runner Episode 009 | Geek Girl Runner Episode 009Hey, remember when I used to podcast and stuff? Guess what? I MADE A NEW EPISODE! This is basically a catch-up show, filling you in on all my running-related (and not-so-running-related) news from the past two months. The show also includes a race report from last month's Elkhart County Fair 5K Road Race which features the podcast debut of my husband, the Snook (as well as my Mom, Step-Dad, and little brother). I ended with bit of further discussion about the sports bra topic, as prompted by some new research that's come up. I hope you like the show!Show links:Elkhart County Fair 5K Road Run (official results)The House on the Rock, Spring Green, WisconsonBlackmore's Half-Marathon - part of Sydney Running FestivalRun Yank Run - Paul Abrelat's podcastPhys Ed: The Right Kind of Sports Bra from The New York TimesThanks as usual to Nick Arthur for the use of his song "Little Donut Party"! | 8/26/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Geek Girl Runner Episode 008 | Geek Girl Runner Episode 008Here it is! My long-awaited EPIC next episode. Hey, only 2.5 weeks between shows! I think that's some sort of record. This is also probably the longest show I've done so far. This episode features: what's been keeping me busy lately (both running and otherwise); a training update; emails, comments, and shout-outs; and a weighty (HAR HAR) discussion on the topic of sports bras. Thank you especially to all of the women who gave me interviews at WWKIP Day and to those who contributed to the online discussion.

Geek Girl Runner Episode 007 | Geek Girl Runner Episode 007While those of you in the U.S. are celebrating Memorial Day weekend, Down Under we're counting down the last two days of Autumn before Winter begins in earnest. It's been cold, windy, and rainy in Sydney; the kind of week where you prefer to curl up under a blanket rather than drag yourself out of bed to exercise. I recorded the long-awaited Episode 7 of the Geek Girl Runner podcast tonight - IN A SINGLE TAKE! - huddled in my cosy closet. This episode features: what's been keeping me busy lately (both running and otherwise); recaps of the two races I ran this past month; a training update; emails, comments, and shout-outs; and ruminations on running for goals versus running for fun.

Geek Girl Runner Episode 006 | Geek Girl Runner Episode 006Welcome to another installment in my increasingly sporadic running podcast! Sorry for that whole month-long delay. Oops. Life caught up to me in April, as you're about to hear. Thanks again to everyone who's been in contact in the past weeks; it's really meant a lot. This episode features: what I've been up to when I haven't been podcasting; my training update; emails, comments, and shoutouts; and a couple random bits at the end. Look, it's really more important that I finally RECORDED THE THING than it is to have a perfect three-act structure, right? Right. :)Show links:Our trip to CanberraMasterpieces from Paris ExhibitionKnitting Camp 2010Our hike/run at Mount Keira in WollongongSydney Half-MarathonMother's Day ClassicMy 16K long runMy 22K long runYou Don't Have to Run Alone - podcast by Ted Beveridge (with Chloe's Corner!)Running With the PackIron BrandonRunning the Narrow PathCORSO LA META - podcast and blog by Jimbo_WTriathlon Mind Training - podcast and blog by IronmanjayThe Secret Life of Kris - blog of the Other Krismissfee - my friend and fellow runner Fiona | 5/3/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Geek Girl Runner Episode 005 | Geek Girl Runner Episode 005 The long-awaited fifth episode of the Geek Girl Runner podcast is now available! Sorry about taking so long. (I explain what I've been up to in the meantime in the show.) This one is particularly interesting in that I recorded the whole thing in a single take! Extemporaneous speaking FTW. Thanks again to everyone who's been sending in feedback. This episode features: my training update; emails, comments, and shoutouts; and a small rant about whether podcasts are, in fact, a vanity project.

Geek Girl Runner Episode 004 | Geek Girl Runner Episode 004The fourth episode of the Geek Girl Runner podcast is now available!

Geek Girl Runner Episode 003 | Geek Girl Runner Episode 003The third episode of the Geek Girl Runner podcast is now available! Right off the bat, I just have to apologise for the voice quality in this one. I caught a raging cold on Monday night, and I just didn't want to wait any longer to record so I sound quite stuffed up. I was also radioactive (yes, seriously) and possibly feverish so I probably ramble a little more than usual. At any rate, thanks to everyone who listened to the first two episodes and gave feedback. This episode features: my (non-)training update; emails, comments, and shoutouts; and a discussion about running injuries.Show links:My long run (with photos)Wikipedia: bone scanMother's Day Classic - join the Geek Girl Runner team!Lindfield Rotary FunRunYou Don't Have to Run Alone podcast by Ted BeveridgeAAPSM treatment for plantar fasciitisThanks as usual to Nick Arthur for the use of his song "Little Donut Party".
