Do we need to Beat The Boys?!

Happy Monday fam!

Chances are that if you’re listening to this podcast, you’ve heard of Mary McCarthy, an OG running influencer known for her fast pace, injuries, and catchphrase, ‘beat the boys’…

We unpack Mary’s new event encouraging women to beat men… but we have some questions about the event's messaging, and ask whether we need to beat men to enjoy running.

 We then wrap up this week's yap with a 34-week Weekly Waddle update with Phoebe, chatting all things pelvic floor, running and birth prep!
