Running Through Chaos: An Emergency Nurse’s Running Journey

In this episode

Host Padraig talks with Laura Fleming — an emergency nurse, mother of three and dedicated middle-of-the-pack runner — about how running became her lifeline through marriage breakdown, injury and the pandemic. They cover Laura’s journey from Couch to 5K to multiple marathons, training and coaching strategies, balancing shifts and family life, fueling and hydration tips for long runs, and practical recovery hacks (including a surprising plantar fasciitis trick).
