Episode 13 and of course it's unlucky....Kyle is ill and Tom's on his own! As a result, this week is definitely more of a sprint than a marathon and in that theme, we recap some exciting Scottish performance at the recent Diamond League track meets in London & Monaco. We also play back a discussion we had a few weeks back about what strength and conditioning we do following a listener question.

In Episode 12, Tom speaks with Scottish & British International Mhairi Maclennan to hear about her really impressive winter season and we wrap up on the results from the Inverness Campus 5k as well as from other races across the country.
