“Trail running starts when the concrete ends” – Julia “Jules” Topp
What a pleasure to have Julia “Jules” Topp on the Podcast. Jules is not just a trail runner, she is also an Adidas TERREX Coach and founder of eatrunhike.de a fantastic blog. Jules has the energy and passion for bringing together a trail running community and fostering a healthy lifestyle both through food and fitness. A great example is last weekend trail run with Jules together with over 80 runners of the Adidas Runners Munich team as well as amazing Adidas TERREX Athletes like Laura Dahlmeier und Janosch Kowalczyk in the Chiemgau alps.
In her life book, which she calls “Outdoor innerly” she chooses 4 life chapters. From traveling and living in Australia in her first chapter “Eye Opener” over to chapter 2 “Try & Error” she is always encouraged to try out a few more things to overcome fear. Most recalls in our conversation were her infinite passion for enjoying nature and choosing the quietness over the noise in a work-life balance. Chapter 3 was all about Australia, and it’s by far the longest life chapter, which she calls “Finding Love”. As Jules said, finding a new place is like finding a second, third or fourth home.
The drive to find another second home is something we explored in her 4th life chapter. As we found out during the interview, this episode is truly all about life lessons and how to overcome them through try & error, but also how to slow down while being connected with nature during trail runs. With all this saying, let’s begin episode 28 with Jules . Enjoy!
