Vici & Chris are joined by Kate Timmons, Vici’s therapist in more things than just massage and ultra runner extraordinaire who’s fresh from her tour of the east coast and will share her stories from the Grampians 100miler in Victoria and Coast to Kosciuszko in New South Wales as she paced Margie Hadley.

In local results we had the Run Bibbulmun Track Stage Race by Rapid Ascent, Strive Program D, WA participants in the Point to Pinnacle and we learn about MetrO Orienteering.

We find out whether Chris says the C word, talk about a potential women’s only track night and will Vici finally talk about that Jack Daniels thing?

Simon's back on hosting duties with Vici this week joined by Tom Radonic, a local Perth ultra runner fresh off his recent challenge “Mund Everest” - comprising of 42 laps of Australia's toughest parkrun course Mundy Regional Park parkrun (210km and the equivalent elevation of Mount Everest). The challenge was in honour of Jeff Hansen - a pillar of the trail and parkrun community who very sadly passed away from Leukemia. Tom has already raised an incredible $13k for the Leukemia Foundation. 

In local results, we had the

We find out whether we can run as fast as Adam Kopp, whether Vici should go see Mariah Carey or run 25 laps in Cannington this Friday, we might finally hear about Jack Daniels in Vici’s verbalisations, we debate on whether a PB is real if it's not in a legitimate race, and we shout out Holly Ranson for her 24hr run and Luke Taylor running for Prem babies who are this week's weapons of WARP.

Chris and Vici are back on the weekly pod minus Simon as they cover the 6th annual Denmark Half Marathon to cover over the weekend just gone, the Collie River Ultra (we found the results!) and track the moving dots of Aaron Young and Mackenzie Burgoyne in midst of potentially breaking the Bibbulmun Track FKT.

Chris tries to run a 5km Time Trial, Vici has entered a last man standing event, and Simon is probably still hungover after MCing his favourite cousin’s wedding over the weekend.

We have our upcoming live show this Wednesday 1st October at The Running Centre, we have Vici’s Verbalisations (an upgrade to Simon Says) and Tom Radonic, James Collins, Shannon Burgoyne, Liam Kamudu, Suzi MacMahon and Dawn Barker are this week’s Weapons of WARP.

This week we chat to Sarah Paduano a weapon in her own right who recently ran Run Brittania, an event that covers 1,600km running the entire length of Great Britain, from Lands End in Cornwall to John O’Groats in Scotland. We find out what keeps Sarah lacing her shoes and how running has become both a way to challenge herself and a source of strength.

In local results, we cover the single result we know of Collie River Ultra, the Mighty Jarrah Trail Run, the Sunset Coast Marathon & Run Festival and the WAMC Col Junner Sprint to It Fun Run. 

We have our first live show coming up on the 1st October, and Colin Dismuke, Liam Dardengo and Nancy Shaw are this week’s Weapons of WARP.

In episode 02 of our Perth Running Festival Training Series, we're joined by the self-confessed Queen of Kwinana and previous winner of the Perth Marathon Kat Watt as she prepares to return to Perth to take on the half marathon, a steppingstone to a big marathon major later this year. We're also joined by young gun Denzel Gould who has seen a huge progression in the marathon running a 2:58 at Bibra Lake Marathon earlier this year with hopes of continuing that progression at the Perth Marathon. 

Finally, we're joined by specialist Shane Johnstone from Valetudo Fitness & Physio on the importance of strength and conditioning to complement your running.
