Bigger Than Running

Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads out there. In episode 10, I am so happy to have done 10 of these already. Being joined by my co-host, Josiah, is a privilege and a joy as a dad, especially for the Father's Day episode.

In this episode, we talk about Josiah's first park run and my second as he trains for his 1-mile PB attempt being paced by the legend  ⁨@BenIsRunning⁩

I share a few YouTube videos from titans  ⁨@PhilyBowden⁩ and  ⁨@Manvmiles⁩ , as well as a uniquely important video by a channel I have just discovered called  ⁨@Run_L...

In episode 9 I am joined by my son Josiah as we debrief and give a race recap of the amazing Worthing 10K experience. We talk about Josiah aiming for and achieving his 1-mile personal best, and my 10K run with friends, and also seeing  Steven ⁨@FilmMyRun⁩ the day before and during the Worthing 10K.

I also open up about having difficulties losing weight and now firing up another push to lose 10Kgs as I head towards Sydney Marathon in August.

We also highlight  ⁨@FilmMyRun⁩ in the recommended YouTube videos after meeting him at Park Run, but more i...

In this episode, I announce that I am running the Sydney Marathon 2025 with the support of @asicsglobal and the team at  @Sports_Direct  

I also discuss the sad news of the  @atreyurunning  team closing down its business and encourage runners, influencers, and professional runners to do more for the smaller underdog brands. 

I also share with some amazing videos I watched this week for you to check out, like  @HereWeAreRunning  |  @lenkaontherun  and  @RunningInJapan  

Lastly, I close the episode by highlighting the  @ASICSEurope  running shoe rotation, which includes the Gel Nimbus 27, Cumulus 27, Novablast 5, and Metaspeed Sky

The best daily trainers from each brand I own ensure you know all your options. I highlight the importance of daily trainers for a new runner and then list a pair from each brand that I own and have personally tried.

I also spotlighted 2 YouTube videos that I watched this week that touched my heart, 1) Thiomas from  @Believeintherun visiting Spotify studios, and Daniel & @PhilyBowden shared their Hackney Half Marathon videos and said a few kind words about me.

Lastly, I spotiighted @altrarunning as a brand and their flagship shoes, the Torin and Lone Peak series.

I've just pressed record on episode 6 of the Bigger Than Running Podcast. I talk about the benefits of maintaining perspective and celebrating yourself as a runner. I would like to help you appreciate yourself and what you're doing as a runner.

I also share an overview of daily trainers and give you some strong recommendations for a good trainer for each running brand i could think of on the top of my head.

I also share some YouTube videos you should catch up on and highlight the Mount To Coast T1 trail running shoe.

I've just pressed record on episode 5 of the Bigger Than Running podcast. In this episode, I start the discussion on common questions that new runners ask themselves, and I will eventually get experts to dive into the details. For now, I will start the conversation on choosing footwear, understanding nutrition, the accessories that help you run, what apps to use, and races.

I also recommend 3 videos that you have to watch this week. Thank you to  @TheWelshRunner  |  @FilmMyRun  and  @Nicolestraveltips  for these videos.

Lastly, I spotlight the Brooks Ghost 17 daily trainer ahead of my first run fr...

I have run 5 marathons so far, and I do not doubt that I will run many more. The common denominator across all those marathons has been my friend Thomas from  @Believeintherun , who has supported, advised, and encouraged me through this journey.

Put simply, I owe a lot to this man! Thomas, you're a gem in this community, and I wish everyone had a Thomas in their lives.

I explore what truly makes someone a "real runner" by challenging toxic running culture and redefining what it means to belong in the running community. The running world needs to be more inclusive and welcoming to all who enjoy putting on their shoes and heading out the door.

• Arbitrary standards like pace, knowledge, race participation, or years of experience don't determine if you're a "real runner"
• If you have a relationship with running and make time for it despite life's demands, you're already a runner
• Parents and full-time workers who find time to run deserve immens...

My name is Aubrey, and I am an average runner on YouTube. My YouTube channel is for people like me, average runners who make up the majority of this community but still feel somewhat underrepresented.

In this episode, I share the podcast's intentions and delivery format. If you would like, please catch me on YouTube or Instagram at:
