Cheeky Run Club

For as there have been runners, there have been people who cannot stand running in the heat. And for good reason: in this episode we explore why running in the heat/humidity is sooo much harder. BUT what's less rarely talked about is the upside to running in heat, so in this episode we also unpack the physiological adaptations you get from running in the heat, which (SPOILERRRR) are kind of wild. We then get stuck into tips n tricks for thriving in your summer runs + warning signs that things are heating up a little too much.We then do some race previews and get pumpeddd for ON:TRACK:NIGHTS on the 14th of December (join us!!), and finish with The Run Down segment covering some bloody exciting news in Australian running.The legends at Pillar Performance have generously setup a discount code for the Cheeky community, use CHEEKY15 at checkout for 15% off your first purchase.

HOWDY! Welcome to our first ever 'mailbag' episode. This was so FUN. We gave our thoughts on... will the running boom will last?what if you're never the runner you were pre-injury? what are our favourite running cities? how much do we pay attention to our HR on easy runs? andare we doing this podcast for fun or money? 😮 We then respond to some 'running hot takes' including thoughts on running over the Christmas break and the seeming divide between runners who have recently found their way into the sport and runners who have been around the block, so to speak. Finally, we get PUMPED for ON:TRACK:NIGHTS on the 14th of December (join us!!).The legends at Pillar Performance have generously setup a discount code for the Cheeky community, use CHEEKY15 at checkout for 15% off your first purchase.
