Summary

An 18-week marathon training diary. New episodes released every Monday.

Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah and Body Coach Joe Wicks lend their advice, expertise and moral support to George Lamb as he trains for the 2018 Virgin Money London Marathon. This blood, sweat and tears journey follows George as he transforms from couch potato to long-distance athlete in just 17 short weeks. Packed with entertaining anecdotes and essential training tips, this series gives budding runners all the help they need when it comes to getting marathon fit.

In this episode, as the lengths of the runs start mounting up, George meets author of Running Like a Girl and Leap In: A Woman, Some Waves and the Will to Swim, Alex Heminsley, to discover why incorporating swimming into your marathon training can be such a good idea - as unappealing as jumping into a freezing cold pool in the middle of January might be....

Joe runs through a series of exercises to help improve your cardiovascular system and increase your strength - all of which will help George make it over that finishing line.

Mo-Joe episodes are free for Audible members, £2.99/episode for all other Audible customers.
