August 24, 2021 Francis Benali: from Premier League footballer to ultrarunner
Francis Benali played nearly 400 games for Southampton, gaining cult hero status for his uncompromising playing style and excellent moustache. But it's his post-football career that's even more fascinating.

In doing so, he's raised more than £1 million for Cancer Research.

July 06, 2021 Elliot Giles: the 800m ace on training, racing and recovery
When Elliot Giles broke Seb Coe's 800m British indoor record earlier this year, it was the latest chapter in a remarkable story. Having been involved in a serious motorcycle accident as a teenager, Giles feared he might never run again. Through a steely determination, unshakeable self-belief and some unorthodox training methods, he's become one of Team GB's breakout stars – and is on the front cover of this month's Runner's World magazine.
