Episode 52 – Christmas-Themed Chat GBT

Episode 52 of the RUNcensored Podcast is a Christmas-themed Chat GBT episode, with no guest this week and no real agenda, just a relaxed chat fuelled by festive questions and running banter. Gary, Ben and Chris sit down for an end of year catch up and work their way through a mix of running, Christmas, and slightly ridiculous listener style questions.

The episode starts with the usual waffle and catch up, touching on illness, orienteering, and general December fatigue, before leaning into the festive themes. The lads debate the best Christmas deodorant gift packs, share tips for keeping fit over Christmas without overthinking it, and discuss how runners can balance training with food, family time and switching off.

There’s plenty of light hearted running chat throughout, including whether a RUNcensored Christmas run or party for listeners could ever happen, how long you could realistically run fuelled purely on mince pies, and what to buy a runner for Christmas when they already seem to have everything they need.

The conversation also covers festive races, Christmas Day runs, winter running traditions, and the strange rituals runners seem to develop at this time of year. As expected, Chris doesn’t escape without taking some stick, with a festive question involving Tottenham Hotspur, Christmas decorations, and recent trophy counts.

The episode wraps up with Christmas themed running traditions, festive food ideas using leftovers, and a relaxed outro.

A fun, informal episode full of running chat, festive nonsense, and the kind of conversations that usually happen mid run or post run at this time of year.
