Joyce Njeru: From Kenya to Broken Arrow, trail running as a legacy - VO 🇬🇧

In this special States of Mind episode of Course Épique , we sit down with an extraordinary athlete—and a deeply inspiring human being—Joyce Muthoni Njeru. Her journey begins in the Kenyan highlands, where running was never about medals but about meaning. She ran for water, for school, for joy. And even now, with podiums and world titles to her name, she runs for something greater: for her family, her community, and the young girls she inspires every day. In this episode, we explore: Running to survive, to dream, and to uplift Her deep connection with NNormal and the inspiration of Kilian Jornet Balancing tradition and modernity, between Africa and Europe The weight—and power—of being a role model Her emotional return to the Broken Arrow Skyrace And the quiet force of what she calls “the race of the heart” From the red soil of Kenya to the sharp peaks of the Skyrunning world, from simplicity to world-class excellence, Joyce shares the mindset that drives her—an inner fire shaped by humility, purpose, and resilience. A luminous, heartfelt conversation. Tune in and let her words move you. This special States of Mind episode of Course Épique was produced in collaboration with i-Run and NNormal. States of Mind is a different way of telling trail stories. It shines a light on the mindset behind every stride, the human behind every bib, and the decisions behind every starting line. *** Course Épique is the running and trail podcast that brings you, in each episode, an extraordinary running story. 🎧 To stay up to date with Course Épique, get behind-the-scenes content, and never miss a new trail or running episode, follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/courseepique.podcast/ 📺 You can also watch full episodes of Course Épique on YouTube: https://bit.ly/courseepique_youtube 🎙️ Course Épique is a running and trail podcast created and hosted by Guillaume Lalu, and produced by Sportcast Studios.
