What do dogs and frogs have to do with running? All will be revealed in episode 11.

Dr Luke also comes in with some great knowledge on REDs alongside the regular ramblings - enjoy!

Inspiring, infectious and individual! I chatted to Tasha Thompson, founder of Black Girls Do Run UK, about what, why and how she started running which led to starting BGDRUK in 2019.

This chat epitomises why I do this podcast - runners running out of the pure love for it 💚

Have a listen and brighten up your day, and let's all 'Be More Tasha!'

This week, Dr. Luke offers solid insight by answering Fran's question about the menstrual cycle and how it affects running, shedding some light on the balancing act women face when training for events.

We also report on the latest potential running fad - CBD roll-on - and realise we're half way through the series and the marathons are actually quite soon...

Luke recounts his ultra, Fran likes the idea of an ultra, Sam enjoys hearing about Luke's ultra and imagining Fran running the hills of an ultra.

Double Threshold sessions were on the Fad Menu this week... Fad, Foe, Friend or Fun? Find out all about it, plus the usual chinwagging, in episode 9.

If you've run at an event in London in the last few years then there's a very good chance you've been snapped by Jerry.

His style combines movement, colour and good vibes - and he always manages to catch you on the up-step!

As well as photographing many of the run crews and events across the UK, he's now doing the same at the Diamond League and even in Paris at the time of the Olympics.

In this chat, we discuss how he's developed his own style, what he loves about taking photos and how it all began - as well as some tips for other content creators.

The fads keep on giving, and sometimes taking, but we're dedicated to the cause and bring you more on-the-ground analysis of what to do and what to avoid.

Fran frolics on Italian freeways...

Sam succumbs to compression soreness...

Luke laughs and sets something very topical and with serious injury potential.

But all for the cause - fad, foe, friend or fun...

Having known Talia Sullivan for years, when she got a running scholarship to do an art degree at an American college I couldn’t wait to follow along through Instagram and see what it was really like.

We discuss everything from how she got in without a 5k time to her name, to being upgraded to a ‘full ride’ scholarship, and then how injury actually meant she could stay longer.

Enjoy and follow Talia @taliassullivan and @taliasullivan.art - her art is epic too!

We're into week 7 already and this week's fad is all about compression and recovery. But will it actually help?!

Fran's quest for new shoes had led to a brand new feature - Overheard in a Running Shop. Not affiliated with Run & Become...yet 👀

Meanwhile Sam's running circles around Morocco and Luke's hitting the hills.

Enjoy!

An episode of two halves - a race recap live from the finish line pub, followed by a reflection a few days later after an epsom salts bath. Enjoy!

Fad, foe, friend or fun - will the beetroot help us run?

Dr Luke is back and in demand, as we get our first ever Listener Question. On that note, send us any you have and we’ll put them to the Doctor.

Big Half, running fast, slight niggles and many giggles make up the rest of the episode.

With that summary there’s probably no need to listen to the episode, but please do as you need something for that long run anyway, right?
