This episode we spoke with Benita Willis,  the current Australian 10,000m and Marathon record holder (along with 8 other national records) and the only Australian ever to win gold at World Cross Country Championships.   Ben and special guest host Kat Cacavas discuss some of Benita's experiences at the highest level of our sport.  

We do a deep dive into the training and health considerations for female athletes.  It is great information for everyone to be aware of, particularly runners, coaches and parents.  Benita mentions a few good resources for this information, we've added them below. 

Benita talks about her running group that has started up on the Gold Coast and online, Lace Up Running.  See links below. 

We hit Benita with a few listener questions and she gives us three cracking answers to our 'weirdest thing on a run' question.
