Tartan Running Shorts

In Episode 68 we're almost down to 2 weeks to go for the big dance! Kyle talks more UTMB prep while his wife gets back to racing, we lament the news that Great Aberdeen Run will not continue and as usual cover news and results from across running in Scotland.

In Episode 67, Tom has been catching up with Sean Fontana to hear about his background and the recent transition to marathoning and the Scottish Athletics Marathon Project. As UTMB approaches we continue to talk prep for the big day....and that's it! Unfortunately a technical glitch means a glorious hour of race results and rants are going to have to wait until week 68!

In Episode 66 the lads have been head to head for in the Rumble at Ben Rinnes! We recap on our runs which mark the end of the hill conversion project for Tom and a good check point for Kyle on the road to the UTMB.

We've got the few results that happened on a quiet week of athletics across Scotland and talk about one of our favourite subjects - a Strava rant!

Episode 65 and we have a fantastic episode this week. Jacob Adkin has recently been crowned the European Mountain Running Champion and he gives us a fascinating insight about his experience, his training and future race goals. Meanwhile, Tom and Kyle get ready for a showdown at Ben Rinnes and we also talk about the London Anniversary Games and the Luke Traynor doping violation.

This week in Episode 63, Kyle is on paternity leave so we dedicate the show to the newest member of Team TRS, Baby Greig! In his absence, Tom is joined by Chris Richardson and Cameron Strachan who provide the paternity cover and we talk about the Night of the 10K PBs where Cameron was in action as well as previewing this weekend's Inverness Campus 5k! It's a slim week on the race results front, while our rant comes in the form of a dig at DNFs....

This week the guys wrestle to keep running around busy weeks - Kyle is on red alert for the arrival of Baby G while Tom struggles without curtains! There's been a lot of racing action including a fake Great Run and a Tattie Race which we cover as well as races across Scotland. We also discuss a listener rant which comes in the form of hill running etiquette debate!

Kyle and Tom attempt to keep it short this week, however, there is so much to ramble about. Tom drinks a beer called Sheena to celebrate his PB whilst Kyle goes tee total and talks about his recovery and a wee 10k race he did at the weekend. Despite their efforts, they are still overshadowed by their wives running accomplishments! Listen and find out all about it!

In Episode 60 Kyle is back from his second assault on the Mozart100 and true to form, he has a story to tell about his strong race performance! We preview the Brian Goodwin 10K which has assembled a stacked field and even includes TRS representation as Tom shapes up for another assault on 10K. Sandbagging is on the rant radar this week and we cover our favourite results from a busy racing weekend!

In Episode 59 the busy June race calendar continues with TRS represented at both the Beach 10K and Dunideer Hill, and with Kyle a week out from the Mozart 100 ultra marathon we talk about his final preparation for that. We've got race results coming out of our ears, selection news for Scottish athletes and a fresh running rant!
