Esther Goldsmith is a Sports Physiologist and part of the science team at FitrWoman - a menstrual cycle tracking app for athletes. However, Esther started out as a dancer, completing an Undergraduate Degree in Contemporary Dance. It wasn’t until she began to fall out of love with dancing that she found running, and eventually, after a few years out, went on to complete a Masters in Applied Sports and Exercise Physiology.
She wrote her dissertation on running economy and the menstrual cycle, which has since been published, and now works for Orreco who own FitrWoman where she gets to work with elite female athletes on a daily basis.
In the final episode of the series, Esther talks in detail about what the menstrual cycle is and how it can impact our running economy. She also answers your questions about running and your cycle.
