Damian Hall joins us for a lovely, meandering chat about all things running, FKTs, tea, and a bit of football thrown in for good measure. You always get good bang for your buck with Damo, and this episode delivers too.

His latest book, Run Forever, hit the shelves earlier this year. It’s a perfect read for runners drifting past 30 and hoping to keep moving for as many decades as possible.

Damian digs into the reasons why our strength and speed might start to fade and why it’s far from inevitable if we actually do something about it. With brilliant contributions from Renée McGregor and Pete Stables, it’s packed with insight and encouragement.

Eddie has levelled up her double threshold game and is loving it. Gary, meanwhile, has had a quiet week of training, two days missed, thanks to life getting in the way and his body whispering, “Mate… be kind to your future self.”

This week’s Brew With the Coaches is a good one, especially for our dear listeners who keep getting that annoying mid run stitch. Some cracking tips in there.

You lot continue to entertain and inspire over on Strava, Tales from the Trails, and of course the mighty Heavy Flex corner. We truly have a community of superheroes getting out there week after week.

Thanks E & G xx

Lucy Gossage joins us today for an absolute powerhouse of an episode. Fresh off the Pennine Way FKT, she’s just conquered 268 miles of bogs, mountains and truly awful weather, all stitched together with joy, grit, friendship and adventure.

Anna Troup set a seriously stout record, and it took bravery for Lucy to step up and take on the challenge. But take it on she did. She pushed all the way to Edale in 70 hours, 47 minutes and 15 seconds, shaving nearly two hours off the previous mark.

It’s a story of courage, community and what happens when you back yourself, even when the odds, and the weather, are stacked against you.
