Running

Many of us know surprisingly little about the critically important organ inside our chest. So it's high time we learned a bit more about the heart – the impact running has on it, warning signs to be watchful of, and advice around HRV and max heart rate.
To explain all, leading cardiologist Dr Dan Augustine offers his expert insights into the heart. 
Find out more about Dan's work at the following resources: sportscardiology.co.uk screenmyheart.co.uk  
The NHS also offers a free NHS health check, which looks at heart disease risk, for those aged 40-74 and over: nhs.uk

What does running do to your heart?

We're talking running shoe tech and we're joined by Kieran Alger, so we've dusted off his old jingle too (one for the long-time listeners).
In the latest issue of the mag (June '24, on sale now) Kieran wrote about the shelf life of modern running shoes, including supershoes, and how to know when to replace them, so he joined us on the pod to talk us through what he found out.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

When should you replace your running shoes?

They take a lot of pounding and do a lot of work for runners, but are you paying enough attention to your feet? They need some strengthening and TLC if you want to keep them happy and happy feet means happy running. 
To tell us all how to keep those little piggies nice and strong, podiatrist Tracy Byrne explains all - from exercises to strengthen the feet to how best to deal with injuries and issues that stem from the feet (ingrowing nails, infections, corns, bunions and all the rest), we cover it all.

How to create stronger feet for running

On this week's episode, Georgia Bell details her remarkable journey back to elite-level running. An outstanding junior, Bell was seemingly on course to become a star athlete, but after suffering series of injuries while on a scholarship at Berkeley, California, she walked away from the sport in her early 20s – seemingly for good. But lockdown and an impressive parkrun time convinced her to refocus on running – and she's now aiming for Paris 2024.
