Paul and Rob start a long run from Chesham to the monument on Coombe Hill and back on a freezing cold Monday morning. Featuring a Sunday of preparation and a morning of vaseline application, backpacks and muddy tracks, opening chapters and wheeling raptors, countryside sights and electrolytes, stress dreams and what they might mean, George's run and Rudy's fun, 'every day is a life' = drinking with your wife, a bear-carrying bloke and an octopus joke, listener rage when we talk about age, Raworth's power and the end of the first hour.
