About this episode
Joining me on the podcast is elite runner Anya Culling. Three years ago I met Anya during a walk in Norfolk, since then she’s honestly blown me away with her journey. When I first met her, she’d only just really taken up running, her story is remarkable and one that leaves so many questions to be answered. In the space of two years she has gone from not really being a runner to shaving off two hours on her personal best time with a quickest marathon time to date being two hours and 34 minutes, earning herself a call up to represent England.
Anya’s your story has gripped the nation and has sent the message that it really is never too late to start something. I honestly love her vulnerability and her rawness, no matter the position she finishes, she is, in my opinion the people’s champion. Every time she steps foot on that start line it’s a reminder of what’s possible to anyone and to people of all abilities. From a first time runner to elites, we can all take inspiration from Anya’s story.
