Rachel Normand opens up Season 9 - Young Hearts Run Free Podcast - Season 9 Eps 1

We said we'd be back soon, we dinnae lie, welcome along to a brand new season of the Young Hearts Run Free Podcast!!

We kick off our curtain raiser with an intro that serves up all sorts of delights, some of them even running related! 'Oh Courtney Dauwalter!'

Our opening guest of the season then joins the party. Hot off the heals of being crowned Devil O the Highalnds 2023 champ Rachel Normand chats to us about her running story.

And it's quite the tale, Rachel leads us through how she got into running, her first forays into racing and how she found the trails and hills that she adores before discovering a little thing called ultra-marathons!

We pause for a while in the Lake District, as we do often, before scooting up the road to the West Highland Way to discover a bit of a love affair Rachel has with the route. Success followed her and we hear all about some amazing days out on 'the Way'.

We are then treated to a story of her 2023 Devil victory. A day immensely enjoyed by Rachel, that comes across loud n clear!

It's not all racing though, Rachel is a relatively new mum and we find out how she's eased her way back into running post pregnancy. Of course it wouldnae be a season opener without talk of kit and scran, Rachel plays along and provides the insight we crave!

With training, coaching and mindset all covered we were thrilled to have Rachel on for this seasons curtain raiser. Enjoy Episode 1, we've plenty in the pipeline for what will be a sensational Season 9!
