Episode 65 of The Final Sprint Podcast features the first installment of a two-part, in-depth interview with the legendary female running pioneer and passionate Lydiard protégé LORRAINE MOLLER.
(Note: Part two will be published on Friday in Episode 66).
Lorraine began an unprecedented, 28-year international career by running barefoot in her native New Zealand. At the age of 41, she concluded her running her career with her fourth Olympic marathon, becoming the only woman in the world to have completed each of the first four Olympic marathons for women. Her multitude of other accomplishments include the longest debut winning marathon streak in history, a Boston Marathon title, and an Olympic bronze medal.
In part 1 of the interview, Lorraine talks about the development and progression of her career, being driven by that “pioneering kiwi spirit”, the metamorphosis of female athletics, her bond with iconic running coach Arthur Lydiard, misconceptions about his training philosophies, and why her regimen so seamlessly prepared her for the marathon.
Download the podcast to hear Lorraine discuss these topics, as well as, the special meaning of being inducted to the Colorado Running Hall of Fame and her belief that running is a personal and spiritual journey that enabled her to develop the often under-appreciated, but yet crucial element to success in both athletics and in life: self-understanding and the mental framework of a champion.
