Our headline act Carla enters the chat and she is in fine form. We fire through her running origin story including her time spent in Glasgow, a city where her running really started to flourish.

We then zoom into something more recent; Carla ran out victorious at the 2023 IAU 50k World Championships in Hyderabad, India. Find out how she proudly wore the Team GB vest in a sweltering city to triumph.

We finish up hearing all about Carla's Strength, Conditioning and Yoga program for runners, see links below, and finding out what's next on her racing schedule.
