EBR Women
EBR Women is a podcast from Endurance Bike & Run exploring the relationship between endurance sport, wellbeing and the wider journey of life.
Hosted by coach Clare Pearson, the podcast shares conversations with women from across the endurance community. From scholarship athletes to experienced competitors, each episode explores the realities of training, resilience, recovery and personal growth through sport.
Endurance sport is rarely just about physiology. It is about how we manage effort, balance stress and recovery, and navigate the challenges that appear both in training and in life. Through thoughtful conversations and real experiences, EBR Women looks at how endurance sport can shape not only performance but also wellbeing and self-understanding.
