The Outmilers Podcast is for half marathon, marathoner and ultra runners who are done just finishing and ready to give it their all.
I'm Claire, Running Coach, Personal Trainer, Nutritionist and Founder of Outmilers. I help endurance runners go from crossing finish lines thinking 'thank fuck that's over' to 'I can't believe I just did that.'
If you've got a race in the diary that's making you question your life choices and you're done leaving it to hope, this podcast is for you.
E8: I can read a run fuelling or food diary and see the fuelling gap, and it's almost never where the runner thinks it is
In this episode, Claire Dunn explores the critical role of fuelling in running performance, addressing common gaps and misconceptions. She shares practical strategies to improve your nutrition for better endurance, faster recovery, and overall enjoyment of running.
The fuelling gap that's almost never where you think it is
Why you can be doing everything right and still fade
The three layers of fuelling nobody explains
Why timing trips up even experienced runners
What actually changes when you get it dialled in
If you're sat there thinking YES, I want this dialled in, this is where we start: Enquiry Form (https://forms.gle/zuAsZp6zv4eaSXzr5)

E7: I Pulled Out of Every Race and It Was the Best Decision I've Made
This one's personal. Five months of something feeling off, a training block that wasn't clicking, and a decision that younger Claire would never have made.
In this episode:
Why pulling out of every race this year was the strongest decision I've made, not the weakest
The difference between a side step and a back step, and why that matters for your longevity in this sport
What the data actually showed when something felt off, sleep, HRV, bloods
Why "normal" on a blood test doesn't always mean normal for you and your training demands
One thing anyone can do if they feel like they're not being heard by their GP
Why the grind harder culture makes honest decisions feel shameful and why that's wrong
The real driver behind all of it (hint: it's not the race goals)

E6: Has Social Media Ruined Running? (No, But...)
Running culture's changed a lot, more people running, more visibility, runfluencers. Some of it's brilliant. Some of it I've got mixed feelings about.
In this episode:
The pros and cons of social media for runners (more competition, more comparison, more noise, more nonsense)
Why some runfluencer content is genuinely brilliant, and some of it is grind culture nonsense dressed up as advice
The one question I recommend you asking yourself before signing up to any race.
Why so many women, me included, don't post the things they're proud of and why that needs to stop
Whatever the culture does, the actual work of running hasn't changed

E4. Chasing big running goals without becoming that runner
When you raise your running standards, it’s easy to raise your internal pressure too.
In this episode, I’m breaking down the difference between training with high standards and turning every run into a test of whether you’re “doing enough.”
I cover:
Why constant pressure isn’t required for marathon or ultra training
The difference between discipline and chasing reassurance
How second guessing your plan quietly stalls progress
What actually builds long term performance
If you’ve ever pushed an easy run because it felt too slow, felt guilty taking an extra rest day, or wondered if your training is enough, this one’s for you.
Big goals should challenge you, but they don’t need to consume you.

E3. It's Time to Smash the Ceiling You Built Above Yourself
This episode unpacks the invisible ceilings that shape how you run, race, fuel, recover and think and how to break through them with self trust and intent.
In this episode:
How “I’m just not that kind of runner” quietly limits your performance
The subtle ways those ceilings shape your training, fuelling, recovery and mindset
Why “being realistic” is often just staying safe
What changes when you stop training from safety and start training with self trust
The ceilings Claire’s broken herself and how you can too

E2. Why Better Direction Beats More Discipline
This episode unpacks what real discipline looks like, the kind that builds performance in your running.
Claire breaks down how to stop chasing effort for effort’s sake and start directing your discipline where it actually moves the needle in your running.
In this episode:
Why Better Direction Beats More Discipline
The real meaning of discipline (and how we’ve twisted it into control and punishment)
How stress, fuelling, and recovery shape your capacity to adapt
The difference between being hardworking and being strategic
How to apply discipline that compounds progress instead of draining it
