    Sophie Power is an ultra runner, and campaigner, passionate about increasing access to sport for women. She has recently set a new women's world record for the most distance run on a treadmill in 48 hours, at this year's National Running Show in Birmingham.

    Michelle and Sophie chat about:

    - Sophie's World Record breaking 48 hour treadmill run at the National Running Show and how she's contributing to scientific research on female athletes.
    - Her first experiences of ultra running

    - How a viral picture of her breastfeeding at the 106-mile UTMB led to her campaigning about inclusivity for female athletes.

    - How race directors can make their events more inclusive for women.

    - How male runners can be female allies on the trails

    The SheRACES female-only 25k and 50k trail race in the Peak District is happening on 2nd August 2025
