Joining us is Nicola Duncan. Edinburgh based Irish gal Nicola made a huge splash when she inadvertantly landed on the running scene over 10 years ago. Already a talented athlete in other disciplines an unexpected spot on the start line of a local 10k saw her unearth her almighty strength in running.

We love hearing Nicola's humble take on her remarkable running evoloutuion since that initital 10k. From crushing marathon's without even realising it to taking on the worlds best representing her beloved homeland.  It's not just a talent she unearthed it's an apptitude and spirit that has taken her to the very top level of both the road-running and ultra-running worlds.

Couple that with her quiet determination to strive for even bigger and better future acheivements as she approaches a landmark birthday and you've quite the inspirational listen.

We spend time chatting Nicola's fav races, fav achievments and fav running pals. We head to Patagonia, to Chamonix and spend a fair bit of time in her adopted home city of Edinburgh.

Hear how an eye-watering FKT on the Fife Coastal trail for a cause so very close to her heart became her favourite day of 2020, and what next for the Galway Girl? 2022 see's some big plans already laid, featuring some iconic races we simply can't wait to see this inspirational lady continue to fly.
