Hello cheeky pals!We’re wrapping up season five of Cheeky with an AMAZING chat with Nike Athlete Isobel Hume. We discuss everything from balancing full time work with a huge running load, how she fell in love with the sport (then out of love, then back in love), how active mediation has lifted her performance, and the community at the heart of it all.We then have our monthly check in on our 2025 goals, including some good learnings on resilience and recovery.Thank you Nike for sponsoring this episode and supporting the pod. We hope you’ve enjoyed this season of Cheeky Run Club 💛 We'll be back better than ever in a couple of weeks!!LINKS:Check out Fair Feed here!Follow us wherever you get your podcasts + Instagram, Tiktok, Phoebe's Strava + Anna's Strava, and join our Strava community 🩵 Music produced by Hugh Raper.

Listening to your body-not always as easy as it sounds
Helllooooo lovely people! Ever had someone tell you to just, “listen to your body”? In today’s episode, we look at how stress can make it difficult to keep an ear out for those cues and give you guys some tools to help reconnect with your bodies. And you guys loved our new segment, “Conversations with Friends,” and we loved having a giggle and giving our hot takes on your long-run debates at the end of the episode.Follow us wherever you get your podcasts + Instagram, Tiktok, Phoebe's Strava + Anna's Strava, and join our Strava community 🩵 Music produced by Hugh Raper.

The art of respecting the niggle
Happy Monday cheeky chums!Todays ep is CRITICAL LISTENING because we discuss one of the tricksiest and most finicky part of running: the art of respecting the niggle. Note we say ART not science because we're not medical professionals and you obviously should seek medical advice where appropriate, however we also know that we don't all have the means to go tearing off to the physio everytime we get sore on a run. We chat about some good rules of thumb to help you identify what your niggle is/how serious it is, and then go through the tools you can have in your toolkit for managing them.Stay until the end of the episode to help us settle an age-old runners' debate in our new segment, “Conversations with Friends."Follow us wherever you get your podcasts + Instagram, Tiktok, Phoebe's Strava + Anna's Strava, and join our Strava community 🩵 Music produced by Hugh Raper.

A deep dive into the track experience
Hello Cheeky friends!Today we’re taking you through track nights – what they are, if they’re accessible to amateur runners, and if so, how you can get involved. Phoebe also reflects on how her own track night went last week, racing in the 5km event. You should also definitely stick around to the end of the episode, where we reminisce about our International Women’s Day run last weekend in collaboration with Nike, sponsored by Ultra Violette.A Cheeky gift:Use our Ultra Violette discount code ‘CHEEKY15’ on their websiteFollow us wherever you get your podcasts + Instagram, Tiktok, Phoebe's Strava + Anna's Strava, and join our Strava community 🩵 Music produced by Hugh Raper.
