The lads go feral in a full Chat GBT episode of RUNcensored … in fact, Ben is now banned from drinking coffee after 12pm.From Ben’s mobile Nursing Home to Go Karting chaos, yellow sticker bargains, Vinted confessions and wild storytelling, nothing is off limits. We talk New Year’s resolutions (or not), Spar heroics, and upcoming races like Transgrancanaria, Zwift training, orienteering and more. Key questions are answered too: Does Gary still do hairdressing? Who would we love on the pod in 2026? What is Ben's best ever yellow-stickered bargain? And are there any low-key races worth checking out?All the usual RUNcensored nonsense, banter, and very loosely running-related chat.#RUNcensored #RunningPodcast #TrailRunning #UltraRunning #UKRunning #ChatGBT #RunnersUncut #VintedFinds #YellowSticker #RunningCommunity

Fell running culture, ultra racing, DNFs, identity loss, and rebuilding from injury.In EP57 of RUNcensored, Gary House and Ben Mounsey are joined by Ellis Bland of VÅGA for one of the most honest conversations we’ve had to date. From racing Borrowdale and Wasdale to beating Rob Hope with a 4:42 final mile, Ellis talks fell running legends, club vests, pub banter, and why fell running is built differently. We get into ultra success, the fear of DNF’ing, spinal injury, body dysmorphia, and the moment Ellis had to accept he might never run again.There’s also some mention of VÅGA, supporting athletes quietly, and why sometimes the best runs never make the headlines.Unfiltered, reflective, and very real.
