25.01.2022 Dropping Monday on The RMA Podcast we talk to Michelle Hooper about her experience finding running, and in the process seeking out her own adventures in a time when so much around us may feel like it has been taken away. We discuss how finding joy in the planning and process of your own adventures can be the most rewarding experience of all. We journey with Michelle in this episode from the beginnings of her running her first 5k at parkrun 18 months ago to most recently runni...ng the fastest known self supported time on the 135km Cape to Cape track in WA. This conversation will leave you questioning why you lace up, and what brings you the most joy in the adventures you embrace, and maybe if you think a little differently, and be bold to believe you can try new adventures, you may be surprised by the places you will go. #runningmumsaustralia #thermapodcast @shell.runs See more

24.01.2022 Dropped today on The RMA Podcast we talk to mum of two and amateur trail runner Michelle Hooper. In the light of the recent lockdowns at the beginning of the year, and subsequently event after event being cancelled or changed to another time, Michelle decided to set herself a goal of running the fastest known self-supported time on the Cape to Cape Track in WA. The Cape to Cape track runs roughly 135km from Cape Leeuwin to Cape Naturaliste, in South West WA. The track covers... around 30km of beach running, clifftop or inland sandy trails with some tricky slow rock sections and a 4WD track. We talk to Michelle about her journey from her first parkrun only 18 months ago to completing this recent achievement, and in this episode we discuss how to really embrace the adventures that life throws at us, and that although we can't control what is going on around us in our world, we can control our mindset and create our own adventures. Throughout this episode we discuss how finding joy in the planning and process of your own adventures can be the most rewarding experience of all. This conversation will leave you questioning why you lace up, and what brings you the most joy in the adventures you embrace, and maybe if you think a little differently, and be bold enough to try new adventures you may be surprised by the places you will go. Available on Apple podcasts or Spotify. #runningmumsaustralia #thermapodcast

22.01.2022 Next Monday 19th October we drop Episode 10 of The RMA Podcast. We discuss Skin cancer, a cancer that affects and kills thousands of Australians. In 2018 Sarah Terrill had just run her 3rd half marathon at the Run Melbourne festival when she noticed a blister on the back of her shoulder. This blister was actually a mole and she showed showed her father who was a plastic surgeon for over 40 years. Sarah’s dad saw this mole and he was quite alarmed and sent her off to a specia...list. This mole was actually an aggressive malignant melanoma. Sarah had had all the necessary treatment required for this melanoma initially, however fast forward to 2020, Sarah had some signs that there may be something major wrong. Sarah’s melanoma had spread to her spine, lungs and brain. Sarah was now diagnosed with Stage 4 Malignant Melanoma. During this episode we talk to Sarah about her journey battling stage 4 melanoma. We talk about what it is like living with cancer and how she shares that experience with those she loves. We talk to Sarah about her journey as a runner, and also the things she looks forward to the most in life, especially when you feel like your days are numbered. This conversation will leave you inspired and make you question your own choices around sun safety and together create awareness around how to avoid skin cancer. To listen to all our podcasts head to your podcast app and search for The RMA Podcast.

20.01.2022 Coming soon on Episode 9 of The RMA Podcast will feature our very own RMA Ambassador Emma Luscombe. We talk to Emma about her experience losing her baby girl Evie to stillbirth and how that has shaped her journey, and particularly made her the runner that she is today and given her a reason to lace up and show her strength. We discuss ultrarunning and what that means to Emma and the ups and downs of life living with depression and the rollercoaster of motherhood along the wa...y. This episode is inspiring and empowering and shows us that we don't always have to have the perfect life to accomplish amazing things, we just have to have the willingness to try and believe in ourselves.

16.01.2022 With most events being postponed or cancelled in 2020, it was great that South Australia was able to host a COVID-19 safe marathon last weekend at the Adelaide Marathon! Marathon runner, and mum Jessica Stenson (nee' Trengove) shares her race highlights with us for what was a different, but rewarding experience, especially now as a mum, and how exciting it is to have a new kind of finish line supporter, her 10 and half month old son Billy! https://www.runningmumsaustralia.com.au//2020-adelaide-ha/

14.01.2022 I run because long after my footprints fade away, maybe I will have inspired a few to reject the easy path, hit the trails, put one foot in front of the other, and come to the same conclusion I did: I run because it always takes me where I want to go Charlie Trevena #runnerslife #runner #runningmumsaustralia

13.01.2022 Dropping next week on episode 13 of The RMA Podcast we talk to Olympic hurdler Schulstad (nee' Edwards). Debbi is an an Australian woman, mother, writer, coach and remedial & sports massage therapist. Debbi, is a mother to 12 year old twins, and wife to Craig. She began training for hurdles as a 15 year old and made her first Australian team at 20, placing 7th in the final at the 1998 Commonwealth Games. Two years later she competed in the 100m hurdles at the Sydney 2000 Olym...pics. Debbi is 1 of only 4 Australians who have represented Australia in the Women’s 100m hurdles at an Olympic Games in the last 30 years. After retiring early from sport due to injuries, Debbi became a Remedial and Sports Massage Therapist making her way back into Australian Athletics Teams as massage therapist. She has since been on 12 Australian teams ranging from World Cross Country teams World Juniors to Olympic Games and World Championships. Debbi is currently getting back into athletics coaching to hopefully help and mentor the next generation of athletes. In this podcast we talk to Debbi about life after high performance sport. Debbi has kindly offered to share her perspective, one that I have been fascinated to watch on what it is like to transition from high performance sports-person to retirement. Often, like in Debbi's experience, this is due to injury and the immediate feelings of loss and grief are often unspoken, as is the journey to finding oneself. High performance sport entangles so much of an athlete's being, and as we discuss in this episode when this is taken away from you, you can experience a deep loss and longing, and period of trying to find out who you really are. Debbi shares this experience with us, along with stories from her time in sport to the pinnacle of her career on the start line of the 2000 Olympic Games. We also discuss her transition to motherhood, and her role now in sport where she works as a Remedial & Sports Massage Therapist for her business, and Athletics Australia at many major competitions around the globe, her role now as a coach and mentor and also what she loves to do now that she has found more of who she is out of the sporting arena.

We are excited to once again have this wonderful organisation hitting the pavement and tracks to help women and girls here in Australia have access to pads and tampons to manage their periods.

"We have worked with Share the Dignity for the past two years through our joint-campaign "Run4Dignity" which brings hope through the movement of individuals connected to this powerful cause. We are thrilled to have helped raise much-needed funds for vending machines over the past few years to help women and girls in need across our Nation, and we are excited to partner again in 2020 for "Move4Dignity" in which we endeavor to help more women and girls have access to period products that most of us take for granted. More than ever we need to get behind causes that seek to empower and support women, and we are looking forward to moving our bodies during Move4Dignity this October.

04.01.2022 Dropping next Monday on the RMA podcast, our 1 year anniversary special, we are talking about running for premature babies! We interview Proud running mumma and RMA Ambassador, Amy O’Halloran who is mum to two darling premature babies, her first born Henry, who came at 34weeks and Jemima who entered the world at 33 weeks gestation! I chat to Amy about her silent struggle with the guilt and the trauma she faced being a first time mum, under going emergency c sections, and trau...matic births (where she couldn’t even hold her baby Jemima before she was taken away), to living in the hospital, the trauma and fear around having a premature baby and leaving to go home without them. We talk about the guilt that weighed heavily leaving Amy feeling as though she had failed Henry and Jemima, which eventually led her to being diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder and postpartum depression. Today Amy is so proud of both Henry and Jemima and that she is their mum! I also chat to my mum, Judy Schulstad, about her experience having two premature babies (myself and my sister) 44 years ago, and compare the differences and similarities in the motherhood journey to giving birth to a premature baby, and how she handled the news that I might indeed die. This podcast is part 1 in our series where we are raising awareness and support for the Running for Premature Babies Foundation. In part 2, which will air in a fortnight we talk to its’ founder, Sophie Smith about the legacy she has built along side her late husband Ash in the memory of her beautiful baby boys, now sleeping, Henry, Jasper and Evan, and how we can support families of premature babies through our footsteps.

03.01.2022 On episode 8 of The RMA Podcast we talk to mum of two and amateur trail runner Michelle Hooper. In the light of the recent lockdowns at the beginning of the year, and subsequently event after event being cancelled or changed to another time, Michelle decided to set herself a goal of running the fastest known self-supported time on the Cape to Cape Track in WA. The Cape to Cape track runs roughly 135km from Cape Leeuwin to Cape Naturaliste, in South West WA. The track covers ...around 30km of beach running, clifftop or inland sandy trails with some tricky slow rock sections and a 4WD track. Michelle needed to run under 26 hours to complete the fastest known self-supported time, and she did just that completing 134km in 25hours 49minutes 49 seconds to claim the new self-supported FKT. Not only did she complete her goal, she raised over $3,500 for the Perth Childrens Foundation in the process. We talk to Michelle about her journey from her first parkrun only 18 months ago to completing this recent achievement, and in this episode we discuss how to really embrace the adventures that life throws at us, and that although we can't control what is going on around us in our world, we can control our mindset and create our own adventures. Throughout this episode we discuss how finding joy in the planning and process of your own adventures can be the most rewarding experience of all. We dive right into training with two young children and navigating the risks along the way while planning for this great adventure. We talk to Michelle about what she learned about herself on this journey and how it has changed her attitude towards running and trail running in general. This conversation will leave you questioning why you lace up, and what brings you the most joy in the adventures you embrace, and maybe if you think a little differently, and be bold enough to try new adventures you may be surprised by the places you will go. You can follow Michelle and her adventures on instagram at Strides for Schools Fun Run presented by Shell Deer Park Episode link: https://podcasts.apple.com//rma-podcast-epis/id1524199654
