The Terra Girls Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Brittany and Tiff kickoff season 5 by looking back on their summers, as well as all the exciting updates that happened Terra over the past few months. They also offer some Terra Girls commentary on the Olympics, discuss cereal, and come up with the warm-up questions for the rest of the season in real-time. Listen in for a good time!

Would you rather be hot forever or cold forever? Do you prefer fiction or non-fiction and why? If you had to delete one food from existing in the universe what would you delete? Brittany and Tiff go over their own answers to their warm up questions, look back over some of Season 4's most memorable answers, and recount some behind the scenes happening. Plus Tiff grapples with the fact that she has no memory of running a race that her Athlinks profile says she did. Don't miss this hilarious wrap-up to Season 4 of the Terra Girls Podcast!

The Terra Girls are back and interviewing with their new friend Heather Trainor! Though Heather is unassuming, she is an incredibly accomplished runner, having completed well over 130 marathons and counting. Heather has not only run a marathon in every US state, she has also run a marathon on all 7 continents (yes, Antartica included)! Her new goal? Run 150 marathons by her 50th birthday.

Listen in to learn a bit more about Heather, her job as the official "Maker of Friends and Purveyor of Fun" at Big Peach Running Company in Marietta, Georgia, and laugh along with Brittany and Tiffany as they kick off Season 4!

With their signature hilarity and chaotic energy, Brittany and Tiff put a bow on Season 3 by asking each other the Warm-Up Questions, reflecting on their favorite moments from the season, and looking ahead with their answers to the Final Lap Question. 

A runner long before his two years working at Terra Running Company, Brennan reflects on how the sport he loves fits in with the big life changes he has recently experienced. From starting a career to getting married, life looks different than it did a few months ago. In this long-anticipated episode, Brennan joins Brittany and Tiff in the podcast studio to share with listeners how he is balancing the new season he finds himself in. 

In running, as in life, injuries and setbacks are inevitable. Our best preparation can't anticipate a torn muscle, a twisted ankle... or a worldwide pandemic. So what do we do when our running goals get derailed? In this episode, Brittany and Tiffany talk about their running setbacks and mindsets that have helped them come back after longer periods away from the activity that they love. 

Like many of us, Cameron Fisher got his start running as an adult. But what began as a simple way to connect with friends turned into a personal quest to run a half marathon in all 50 states -- which he just finished this year. If that weren't enough, Cameron's love of running has had the chance to impact hundreds of thousands of people through his service as the Chairman of the Cleveland/Bradley County Greenway Board of Directors.

From all over the country to right here at home, Cameron's story is a testament to the power running has to enrich lives.

Activity requires energy. And though we all know this in principle, when it comes to our workouts -- especially our longer workouts -- we often forget this fact. Not to mention, it can all be so confusing! What should you eat and when? How much should you eat? And what about hydration? Join the Terra Girls as they share their nutrition mishaps and mistakes while they dive into the wonderful, confusing world of running nutrition.

Though she's never been a stranger to running, Bradley County native Charlcie Norris hasn't always loved it the way she does now. In fact, she might tell you that she used to loathe it. But what used to be viewed simply as a dreaded workout for basketball, turned into an outlet for adventure, activity, and quality time with her dog Mickey -- especially once she discovered trail running. Learn how Charlcie managed to fit in training for (her first!) two ultra races this past year, how strength training factors into her workouts, and what it is like to work grueling hours at a hospital while attempting to keep exercise and health a priority.

As runners, sometimes it can seem that we love our tech more than we love the act of running. Whether feeling like runs don't count if they aren't uploaded for followers to see or being beholden to our smartwatches' diagnoses, when it comes to our mental state, at times, our technology can do more harm than good. Are social media and technology ruining our ability to enjoy running for running? Are our smartwatches keeping us from actually being in tune with our bodies? Join the Terra Girls as they discuss their own experiences with the shadow side of running tech.
