There is No Wall with Allie Bailey - Young Hearts Run Free Podcast - Season 9 Eps 12

Where to even start with this week’s episode, it’s a question we’ve asked ourselves a few times since recording with the outrageously entertaining and super-talented Allie Bailey.

We hit the ground running with a thorough intro as JC and Stevie Boy catch up on plenty happenings mostly but not exclusively running related with sequin jackets and shwanky socks to the fore.

Allie then joins us for a rip-roaring account of her running story. It’s quite something.

A coach, an author, a podcaster, a runner, a recovering alcoholic, a depressive, a sensation.

Allie took up running back in 2008 to combat depression. It didn’t quite work out how she thought. However, it certainly changed the direction of her life.

From running 58 ultras in a year, to discovering the route to help her mental health problems, through to acknowledging her struggles with alcohol this episode takes twists and turns multiple times.

With a unique perspective gained from lived experience peppered with humbleness, humility and an (un)healthy dose of self-loathing Allie’s chat will get you thinking, nodding, or even disagreeing.

In this tell it all brutally honest conversation Allie sends a clear message.  Define your values and live by them.

It's YHRF but not as you know it. We loved our blether with Allie, so will you...
