Running Commentary

Paul is on the bench once more, which is a shame... but a fantastic opportunity for our 2021 Q&A! In this epic episode we deal with running slow, running fast, recovering, drinking, Ultras, tractors, dream runs, dream guests, and regrets - we’ve had a few.

Why does Rob need a gentle turn on Clissold Park's soft surfaces? Has Paul finally found his 'Why?' for the Marathon Des Sables? These questions and more are answered in this episode, along with the boys' musings on MDS prep, Jasmin Paris and the Barkley Marathons, searching for the hero inside yourself, questionable advice, when life outside running gets TOUGH - particularly on Rob's wife - a Half Marathon... kind of, some surprise vermin, showbiz fun, chasing catharsis, potential timings and tentative tapers.
