We're back for another blether. And this episode we're joined by yet another inspirational guest.

Since his first 10k back in 2006 he's followed a steady but relentless rise through the distance landmarks. Half marathons became marathons. Marathons quickly became ultra marathons. We'd call it an addiction, but what a healthy addiction to have.

It's a treat to hear Alan chat about how he truly caught the running bug. His ultra marathon count is now sitting at 80 plus, but he's not intending slowing down. Find out about lots and lots of his lessons learned, his fave kit, his relaxed approach to nutrition and where he loves to run the most.

We spend time talking about some of the races he's remembers the most. The Hill Ultra (55 reps of a hill, just the 160 miles in total), The T184 Ultra (184 miles the full length of the River Thames), The Spine Race (268 miles) and the Tunnel Ultra (200 mile long ultra - all inside a tunnel)
