Kayleigh Webster is back on the podcast for her third appearance — this time diving into what Backyard Ultras reveal about people, why Beecraigs has become such a special community event, and how injury has reshaped her approach to running and race directing.
We get into:
• Why Backyards feel more communal than competitive
• The atmosphere at Beecraigs and the role of spectators
• Family influence, Barkley dreams, and “unreasonable” goals
• Watching runners change hour by hour
• How a busy race calendar can strengthen the running ecosystem
• Injury, identity, and learning to train differently
• Zwift, patience, and redefining what it means to be a runner
• Leadership, judgement, and caring for athletes
• What’s next for Beecraigs — and for Kayleigh
Quick training update from me: the Achilles is settling, mileage is building again, and I’m finally stringing together some consistent weeks.
A brilliant conversation with someone who’s shaping the Scottish ultra scene in a really thoughtful way.
