Running Athens Authentic Marathon: Before the Marathon (Part 1)
11/21/2022
Have you ever thought of running the ORIGINAL MARATHON? I can honestly say I have been obsessed with this idea for a few years. And finally this month the "dream" turned into reality. When I completed the 6 major marathons, many asked me what would be next on the "Vanessa running bucket list". Without hesitation, I replied Athens Marathon. It is the course that started it all, from Marathon to Athens - the original - the authentic marathon. And it was on my “bucket list”.

親がガンになった時のことを振り返る子供たちの対話
8/15/2022
Episode 10 English version.
Outrun Cancer の以前のエピソードでは、ガンの診断結果が家族に与える影響について話しました。 「ガンにかかるのは本人だけではなく、家族全員がかかるということ」という言い方がありますが、私たちは家族にどう伝え、ガンを経験している家族をどうサポートするかを考えています。
このエピソードでは、ヴァネッサの息子の鷹（長男）と善（次男）が、両親がガンになったときに、その状況をどう見ていたか、どう支援し、対処したかについて率直に話し合っています。ガンの診断をされた私たちの多くは、プライバシーを守るために、誰に、いつ、どの程度の内容を伝えるかを決めなくてはなりません。私たちは、最善と思うことに基づいて、その決定してきました。
鷹と善は台本のない会話で、10 代後半にガンの旅に出たときに考え、感じたりしたことについて語り合います。彼らは、これまでガンについて一緒に1...

When Parents have Cancer: a kids' conversation
8/1/2022
In previous episodes of Outrun Cancer we discussed the impact that the diagnosis has on families. We often hear the saying “a person doesn’t get cancer, a family does” and time and again we are considering how we tell family and support family going through cancer.
In this episode, Vanessa’s sons Zac and Jordan open up and talk with each other about watching, supporting and coping when parents have cancer. Many of us with a cancer diagnosis have to make decisions about who to tell and when,...

Although not a professional trainer, she had a lot of knowledge about how the body works through a transformation journey. More than that she had empathy for that transition stage and showed me that I hadn’t taken into account what...

Taking control of the cancer journey: Julia’s running streak lives on
5/9/2022
Today’s guest gives me so much joy every time I talk with her! Julia and I have never met in person. Based in Jordan she messaged me on Instagram and although it took me a few days (or more than a few days!) to see the message in my “junk folder” I am so glad she persistently sent a follow up that got me to finally see her message. Julia is a streak runner and has just passed her ONE YEAR CANCERVESARY in April - woohoo! Julia shares with us how she took control of her thoughts and chose how...

Streaking and Getting Naked 日本語サマリーあり

Have you ever gone into something with one goal …and a nice unplanned consequence happened along the way? This has happened with my streak running. I have been so very fortunate to have had my daily run teach me so many things “on the side”. I began to think of these aha moments as a special part of my run and started to call them my “life learnings from running”. It also became a fun way to share my daily run with Caroline as just saying - “I ran today - it was snowing” got a “bit”...

I think today’s episode is going to make you want to find your running shoes and run! I am talking with my friend Kati from Germany.

Cancer as a couple with Yasu Oshima

This one's a little special. This is me and my husband having a chat about the fact that we are both cancer survivors. We've never actually spoken together like this and so for both of us, it was a bit of a challenge on many fronts. English is Yasu’s second language and Japanese is mine, so we've done the broadcast in English and in Japanese (Episode 3).
It was a little scary for us going into this conversation. We're talking about something that happened many years ago for my husband (23...

今回は少し特別なエピソードです。私と夫が、ともにガンを克服したことについて会話しているものです。これまで一緒にこのような形で会話したことはなく、私たちにとっては、多くの面で挑戦となりました。Yasuにとっては、英語が、私にとっては日本語が第２言語ですので、このエピソードは、日本語と英語とで収録しました。(English version is Episode 2)
こういった会話をするのは、少しつらいものでした。夫に起きたずいぶん昔のこと（23年前）と、私の場合には、わりと最近（5年前）のことについて話していますが、あとになって分かったこととして、ガンの克服についてのとても大切なこと、ガンの闘病を通じて互いに支え合ったことについて話しています。

How it all started
2/21/2022
Back in September 2012, I got a Facebook message from a friend. Caroline had reached out to me 20 years after we left high school. I was now based in Tokyo, far from my hometown of NZ and we had not been in touch. The message just simply said “you have inspired me to go for a walk today”. And this was that start of a promise, and the foundation of the outruncancer journey and the life learnings from running and life learnings from cancer that I gather every.damn.day.
I’d love you to meet...
