On a beautiful day, Paul and Rob lean into the bumpy thrills of change on a trot around Finsbury and Clissold Parks. Featuring damp bamboo, new shoes, a visit to the world of big money and proper work, running 'early', lucky leaves, canal clay and squat strength, getting back to fitness and finding out what runners we are going to be next, health and eastern mysticism with Alan in Hounslow, London Marathon thoughts, gig report, old clowns, the moment versus the infinite, and Autumn all around.

Hampstead Heath is as Autumnal as it could possibly be as Paul and Rob head out for a Bonfire Night - or rather Day - run. Featuring a wonderful display of leaves, and a very misty take on the London skyline, the wonder of wives, reading and not reading, full-sized children, Twitter vs X, Rob's many-but-not-quite enough trainers, Paul's visit to the gym, being on the cusp of taking the final opportunities of the year or winding things up and waiting for the next, a good moment in comedy, the art of letting go, and the loss of a couple of very different legends.

As the leaves continue to fall gently on Highgate, Paul and Rob share their post-Yorkshire Marathon thoughts and plans - which diverge quite dramatically. Featuring booze report, why and why not to fulfil the marathon contract, getting beyond the 'why?', medal muddles, the biggest, blackest toenail, celebs and their Mums, the Deerings in the 'dam, and everyone else's Yorkshire marathon stories.

The Yorkshire Marathon is upon us, and despite a fairly healthy training block, and some signs of strength in recent weeks, Paul is on very little sleep and Rob is under the weather.
What happened next will, as they say, blow your minds.
Thanks so much to the Yorkshire Marathon Festival for having us, congratulations to all the friends, old and new, who ran there too, and all the lovely staff and volunteers; what a great event.
