The RMA Podcast

On episode 32 of the RMA podcast I speak with long time RMA member Harmony Waite. Harmony talks with us about her journey into running, particularly after becoming a mum and her rise into ultra running. We talk about what she loves about endurance events and how they not only test her ability and strengths, but how they challenge her, and what she loves most about the adventures she embarks on.

We talk at length about running the kind of ultras that Harmony enjoys; 100 milers and 200 milers and why this is her distance of choice. We also dive into the issues one faces when they take on such a challenge.

Many would think this episode is about an elite runner, however the opposite is true. Harmony is your everyday mum, sometimes at the back end of the pack, raising two children in the suburbs of Perth, and we chat about combining her love of ultra running with raising children. We also chat about the influence that Harmony has had on her children, with her daughter's interest in particular in joining Harmony on some of her grand adventures and forming her own.

In this episode we learn more about 200 mile races, and in particular Delirious West 200 miler and Irrational South 200 miler that Harmony competed in which you can find more information about at ultraserieswa.com.au.
