This week we’re joined by a true legend of Scottish ultra running — someone who’s quietly built a record that’s nothing short of extraordinary. He completed his 200th ultra lining it up with finishing the West Highland Way Race for the twentieth time. He’s part of the backbone of the Scottish endurance community — a runner, a volunteer, and a medic who’s seen the sport from every angle. He’s tough, humble, and deeply respected by anyone who’s ever stood on a start line with him. Welcome to the show, Neil MacRitchie. For Neil we are coining the word "Gobleteer" one who collects west highland way GobletsCatch the show on Youtube (video) @runtillyouredone Spotify (Video and/or sound)Apple (sound only) plus any other podcast providersor chat to us on instagram ⁨@runtillyouredone⁩#gobleteer#westhighlandwayrace

This week on Run Till You’re Done, we’re joined by one of Scotland’s finest mountain runners, Robbie Simpson. One of the most underappreciated running assets the UK has. From representing Great Britain on the world stage to racing shoulder-to-shoulder with the likes of Kilian Jornet, Robbie has built an incredible career in the hills and mountains. We chat about his journey from the Highlands to the international podium, the highs and lows of elite competition, and even the story behind being nicknamed "Fat Simpson" despite being one of the fittest athletes on the planet. It's a conversation packed with laughs, honesty, and plenty of insight into what it takes to compete at the highest level of mountain running.
