Today we’re joined by Claire Maxted, who you may also know as Wild Ginger Running. Claire is the co-founder and former editor of Trail Running magazine and now hosts Wild Ginger Running which is a UK based YouTube channel providing trail and ultra running advice, inspiration and gear reviews.

She releases weekly videos on races, kit review and lots of inspiration to help you on your ultra and trail running journey. She also interviews coaches and athletes on her channel which she then posts on her podcast.

Claire joined me on the podcast to chat through some of her favourite races to, how to approach trail and ultra running if you’re quite new to it, the best kit you need, how to train for your first, is there a big jump up from road running and her return to the trails after having her little boy Finley recently.

Even if long distance aren’t your thing, I think this will still be very interesting and inspiring for all runners!

On Sunday 2nd October 40,000 people took to the streets of London for the London Marathon. 

Coach Katie ran on Sunday for the 5th time and wanted to share her race experience with you. 

We also wanted to share the successes of the rest of the Running Hub Community at London and in other races. 

We hope this has inspired a few of you to run a marathon or run London!

We invited Running Hub member and coaching client Sabrina Marnham onto the podcast to talk through her journey with running. 

Having completed the London Marathon 2021, we discuss how she balances training alongside a full time job and family. 

How and why she's so positive and grateful for running and our community and her hopes and ambitions for her future running.

We can guarantee you'll come away from this podcast with a huge smile on your face! Let's all be a bit more like Sabrina and keep inspiring the younger generations!

With Autumn marathons just around the corner, what a great episode just in time for the taper! 

The taper is a period of time, just before you target race to set you up well for race day. It's where you begin to reduce the volume and intensity of your training so you feel well rested and ready to go ahead of the 26.2. 

Good luck with the rest of your training and the final few weeks leading up to race day.

'How do I get faster' is probably one of the most popular questions in relation to running. We all want to see progress and faster splits in our performance and or race day so we sat down to discuss our top tips on how to get faster and what you may need to implement into your training week to see the results you desire!

We often get asked, how do you fit it all in? How do you manage to train, work and fit in a social life? We wanted to discuss time being a barrier for training in this episode. And how you can maximise your time to get results.  Also, is limited time an excuse or motivation?

This weeks podcast is discussing nutrition and some myths we believe to be wrong.

James and I are not dieticians or nutritionists, however over the years we have researched, experience and gain knowledge surrounding nutrition.

For us nutrition is a really personal thing and it takes time to find out what is right for you. We believe it’s down to how you apply your research and knowledge to your own regime and lifestyle.

We busted some myths such as:

• Carbs are bad
• Eating late at night is not a good thing
• Being leaner makes you faster
• Running fasted will help you to burn more fat
