Sophie Geraghty is not your ‘typical’ runner — but then again, who is? Growing up with two alcoholic parents, living through chaos and instability, and battling an eating disorder for over two decades, Sophie has faced challenges that would stop most people in their tracks. But instead of letting those experiences define her, she used them as fuel — choosing to rewrite her story through running. From pre-dawn training with a headlamp, to running distances up to 240 kilometres, to juggling parenthood, a photography business, and coaching, Sophie knows what it means to dig deep — not just for a finish line, but for healing, growth, and purpose. She’s a coach, a storyteller, and a fierce advocate for women in sport — determined to show that you don’t need the ‘right’ background, the ‘perfect’ body, or fancy gear to belong. All you need is a reason. In this episode we talk about: The importance of female participation in sport, why it matters and what's holding us back as a society The delicate line between endurance sport and eating disorders; – The challenges (particularly for mothers) of juggling work, family and training; and much more (with practical tips to make time for yourself). Why trail running is for EVERYONE. Sophie explains why you belong in this sport, exactly as you are. And much more.
