In this first Delirious W.E.S.T. 2026 check-in, I catch up with the ever-authentic Eve Knudson, who’s been navigating a wild few weeks of recovery, work chaos, house renovations, and life as a mum — all while keeping her running spirit alive. Eve opens up about bouncing back from illness, rediscovering how good running feels after a break, and the tricky balance between being kind to yourself and knowing when to push through. We chat about early alarms, laying out your running clothes to remove resistance, and the power of “permission runs” — heading out for 200 metres and turning back if it’s just not the day. From booking accommodation for the big race (thanks, Mum and Dad!) to the importance of routine when life’s a little scattered, this episode is equal parts relatable, hilarious, and grounded in real-world running wisdom. Oh, and yes — Eve might just have set her PBs after a bottle of red wine. 🍷😅 If you’ve ever struggled to find motivation in the middle of life’s madness — this one’s for you.   Delirious WEST event Website – https://deliriouswest200miler.com.au/Event Facebook Page – https://www.facebook.com/groups/1428304207182387   A couple of BIG favours: 1) please like and review this podcast so more people will discover it :)2) come on the podcast and talk about your running journey and/or refer someone you’d love me to interview (whether you know them or not :) )  Lets not keep the power of running a secret any more!  Hit me up on Facebook/Instagram (ZenRUN.club) or send me an email - Hello @ zenrun.club   Don't miss an episode of the ZenRUN Podcast.
