🎙️ The Long Haul Podcast – Episode with Louise Goddard
In this episode, I sit down with Louise Goddard, one of the UK’s most determined ultra runners — someone who perfectly embodies the spirit of The Long Haul.
Louise’s story is one of pure grit, growth, and perseverance. From her first steps into endurance running to tackling some of the toughest races on the calendar, she shares the mindset, motivation, and lessons that have carried her through the miles.
We talk about:
🏃♀️ What drives her to take on extreme challenges
🧠 How she builds mental resilience when the going gets tough
💬 The reality of training, recovery, and life balance as an ultra athlete
🔥 Her advice for anyone thinking of stepping beyond the marathon
If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to keep moving forward when every part of you wants to stop — this conversation will light a fire under you.
🎧 Tune in, get inspired, and remember: it’s not about how fast you go — it’s about how far you’re willing to go.
