In this episode, I’m joined by Debbie Martin-Consani and Siobhan Brennan and together we delve into a subject that goes far beyond ultra racing; the menopause.We talk openly about the causes, the symptoms, the impact on training and recovery and we tackle the practical realities: HRT, supplements, sleep, nutrition and how to navigate performance when your body is changing. It’s an honest, grounded discussion about what it really looks like to keep showing up regardless of age and ability.And we finish with a message that applies whether you’re chasing podiums or simply trying to stay consistent through a tough season: be steady, be patient and above all, be kind to yourself.Thanks for tuning in!
