This week, our guest is Rochelle Basil. Rochelle is a local elite long-distance runner, coach, and dog mom. She is originally from New Zealand but now lives just outside of Boulder, Colorado. Her career highlights include competing in the World Cross Country Championships and running a 2:39 marathon in London.

In this episode, she shares her personal story of the ups and downs of her career following a peroneal tendon injury and multiple bone stress injuries which changed the trajectory of her career for multiple years. Getting back to good health and getting to the starting line of a marathon was a goal that she didn't think was possible for a long time. With patience, consistency, trust in the process, and support from those around her, she was finally able to reach her goal of getting to the start line of a marathon and crossing that finish line. In this episode, you'll hear about how she ran shoeless for the last 6 miles!

Rochelle's journey is one that is defined by refinding the fun in running. This is a story that we know many runners go through and we wanted to open this conversation to share the message that getting back to good health is possible! So if you are someone who is looking to break the cycle of injury, we hope that this episode inspires you as much as Rochelle has inspired us!
