This week we're talking about:
🇬🇧 England Road Relays - Elle recaps a tough 5.47km relay course, battling the hills and still coming away with a strong team result.
🌴 Mallorca Training - debriefing miles in the heat, humidity, hills and some questionable hotel treadmills… plus why the crisp autumn weather has never felt so good. ☀️➡️🍂
🏃♀️ Valencia Is Getting Closer - With nine weeks to go, Elle gets through a 16-mile long run and starts to reset her marathon training
😬 Amsterdam - Russel is less than two weeks away from Amsterdam, but confidence is low and goals have been reassessed. We talk injury, mileage, pacing and why he’s now aiming for a more realistic target.
⏱️ Manchester Half Marathon Pacing - Russel takes on the 80-minute pacing job - complete with a massive flag, a dodgy hamstring/glute and some very strange race-day noises.
🔥 The London Marathon Rant - The 2027 London Marathon is changing format, but is it actually better for runners? We get into the two-day format, and why Russel has officially had enough.
🏁 Does the UK Need a Fast Autumn Marathon? Could Manchester become the answer? We debate how the UK could create a genuinely fast autumn marathon and whether runners should be looking beyond London.
🇺🇸 Chicago Marathon Preview - We look ahead to a stacked Chicago field featuring Jacob Kiplimo, Charles Hicks, Clayton Young, Brigid Kosgei, Sharon Lokedi, Jess Warner-Judd, and plenty more.
Plus many more tangents and segues along the way.
