On this week's show we discuss the success of Scottish athletes with Scottish Athletics Chairman, Ian Beattie. We talk about the conditions that have allowed runners to flourish and how competitions like the Scottish National Cross Country play an important role.

We look at news from the world of running- world records falling in a 5k race in Monaco and a strong domestic race in Armagh. 

We discuss Shaun's tears on an exposed mountainside in Gran Canaria and Jermaine's hapless attempts to make it as a footballer. Subscribe, listen, rate and review.
