This week we bring you a truly inspirational Bob Graham story about grit, resilience, and what running can look like after a DNF or a missed goal. There’s a charity‑boosting Tale from the Trail, Eddie shares some earned wisdom on running while pregnant, and the co‑hosts reveal how they managed to keep their training on track during those final, chaotic days of the Christmas break.

Thanks to Fenix Light UK, Voom & Altra 13 Valleys for supporting our January competitions. Head over to instagram for all the deets. Good luck!

Every so often, someone comes along who doesn’t just take on a challenge, they redefine what’s possible.

Today’s guest is exactly that. Trish Patterson is a force of nature: a runner with grit in her bones, fire in her stride, and a story that climbs higher than the ridgelines she loves. Whether she’s chasing FKTs, tackling brutal mountain routes, or simply showing what’s possible when determination meets heart, Trish brings an energy that lifts everyone around her.

In this episode, we dive into the mindset behind her biggest adventures, the moments that shaped her, and the resilience that keeps her pushing forward when the terrain gets rough and the doubts get loud. Trish doesn’t just run, she inspires, she challenges, and she reminds us why we fall in love with the mountains in the first place.

From the winding trails of Wendover Woods to the sun-scorched switchbacks of Arizona’s Black Canyon 100K, Joseph Turner runs with purpose, grit, and a story in every stride. A GB athlete with a heart for the hills and a mind wired for endurance, Joseph has carved out a reputation not just for his results, but for the way he races, with humility, humor, and a relentless drive to grow.

In this episode, we dive into the moments that shaped him: the breakthrough performances, the setbacks that taught him more than any podium, and the quiet rituals that fuel his fire. From his early days chasing splits through the Chilterns to representing Great Britain on the international stage, Joseph brings insight, honesty, and a few trail-tested laughs.
