Description

Ever wondered which is better for your running routines during that time of the month - pads or tampons? We, your hosts Coach Shelby and Coach Christine, pull back the curtain on this usually hush-hush topic and delve into a head-to-head comparison of both products. Our conversation is candid, drawing from our personal experiences that include everything from the discomfort of pads to the risks associated with tampons. We also tackle the often overlooked financial aspects of menstrual products, the unique challenges that come with being a female athlete, and even the fear of shark attacks while swimming on your period. We don't shy away from discussing the real cost of period supplies and how they may not be matching inflation. We share practical tips on planning and always having your supplies ready, regardless of whether you're a veteran runner or a beginner. This episode is a must-listen if you're trying to find the best fit for your running routine during your period.We look forward to our exciting workshop about the Hormonal Cycle for Female Runners, where we deepen your understanding and share best practices.Wanna reserve your spot?
