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?

Will Fran's birthday derail her perfect start to following her plan?

Will Sam's nose hold the key to fast times with nasal strips?

And will Dr. Luke give them something even stranger to try this week?

There's one way to find out...

Barging, bi carb and record breakers!

It’s all happening as we enter week 3 of the winter marathon build and this week we have an actual doctor to ratify some of our fadness…

Week 2 is all about bruised knees, bellyache and Norwegian belters!

We ask how fast divas can really run, discuss falling over whilst running, go in on the Olympics and obsess over Ingebritz… Enjoy!

We're back, but a little different.

There's a new host, a new goal, but the same old run chat which spirals off here and there.

Would you want it any other way? Didn't think so, so let's get started...!

Something a little different this time, here's a run replay of one of my own races.

I've been planning to go to Watford and run one of their summer track events for a few years now, so here it is - my debut at the Watford Wednesdays.

Our next guest is a long-time listener of the pod and was disappointed we didn't do the beer intro at the start anymore - there's always next time, Fran!

Her running journey, or "experience" as she prefers to call it, includes some pretty unique marathon choices, both in the events themselves and the approaches. She opens up about some pretty challenging circumstances and is generally a great chat!

So if you're out on a long run, or even if you're not, plug in and enjoy Fran's road to her BQ, and beyond...
