This week we have another one of the Stewarton Ultrarunners - the wonderful Kirsten Cowling


In this fab conversation, the self-proclaimed Ayrshire Horseback Fancy Dress Champion, Kirsten shares with us:


  • The ups and downs and stops and starts of her running journey
  • The Highland Fling is the 'heart' race for her
  • Getting her money's worth out of the races
  • The only female ever-present Hillbilly
  • Her stunning West Highland Way Race finish in 2019 (link to the video below)
  • Pizza for the win - and shocking some Pizza Hut staff
  • A simple yet effective tactic for checkpoints


AAAAAND so much more.


Here is the Stewarton Ultrarunners West Highland Way Race video link - skip to 13 minutes to see Kirsten finish the race. It's a moment that can't help but make you smile and feel your heart full: https://youtu.be/AipHIZ5T4NU?si=imqmO0D0Y8vo6hiC


Here's the link to the video/song that won her the Highland Fling prizes (listen to the words): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9f_4Q0A6lE


As always, if you are looking for run coaching, especially if you are looking at or have just started in the ultra distances then get in touch here: https://teamrunrun.com/coach/david-taylor-irvine-scotland-running-coach/ and we can see what I might be able to do to help


I'm also hoping that I have some exciting coaching news next week so stay 'tuned' for that
