Andy Raynor - Episode 16 - The FOD Runner


Listen Later

Welcome to Episode 16, where I sat down with Andy Raynor also know as the FOD Runner or Forest of Dean Runner.

 

I met Andy through a mutual friend and over the last few years have had the pleasure of meeting him at various running events and am now able to call him a friend.

 

Andy is a family man, running his own businesses but a very keen and talented runner. He seems to balance everything so well but also not the sacrifice of something else.

If you know Andy, then you’ll know he’s a man who thoroughly enjoys the trails, loves a trainer review and has his own unique style of training.

 

Last week I had the pleasure of sitting down with Andy to chat about his approach to training, how he tackles the long run as he runs 90% of the time between 18-20 miles and his growing YouTube channel. Since we recorded this he’s hit over 5,000 subscribers which is a huge achievement and a lot more than when we first met.

We talk through how relaxing and ignoring the watch has allowed him to achieve a sub 3 hour marathon after a few previous marathon disasters. He’s also run a 36 minute 10km and 77 minute half marathon recently which is incredible as he’s only been running for 5 years!
