  • In It For The Long Run by Damian Hall - July 2021
    Aug 8 2021

    In It For The Long Run is ultrarunner Damian Hall’s story of running a first marathon aged thirty-six, dressed as a toilet, and representing Great Britain four years later on the world stage. 

    His incredible midlife running renaissance  escalated to 100-mile ultramarathons and record-breaking hauls, culminating in his 261-mile Pennine Way run in July 2020.

    We chat to Damian about his later-than-most development as a professional sportsperson and coach, what it takes to be a successful long-distance runner, and why ultramarathons are mostly Type-2 fun affairs.  

    Also in this episode your hosts discuss Katharine's (latest!) running accessory purchase, hear how too much football is knocking Niall's running off course, and reveal this month's running challenge...

  • The Runner by Markus Torgeby - June 2021
    Jun 26 2021

    Markus Torgeby was just 20 years old when he headed off into the remote Swedish forest to live as a recluse and dedicate himself to his one true passion: running.

    In his international bestseller - and our book of the month -  The Runner, Markus shares what four years living in a forest taught him about running and about life.

    We asked Markus about his decision to live a solitary lifestyle, how he survived extreme cold in nature, and what we can all do to find more focus and mindfulness in our day.

    Also in this episode, hosts Niall and Katharine update on their "naked" no-tech run challenge, and discuss the merits of Strava tracking versus off-the-grid runs.

  • Traceless by Geoff Cox and Heather Dawe - May 2021
    May 21 2021

    We explore the spirit of fell running with Geoff Cox and Heather Dawe, creators of our book of the month, Traceless. 

    Traceless is a montage of prose, poetry and illustrations. Geoff and Heather tell us about their process for creating the book during lockdown, the magic of running the Gerry Charnley Round in the Lake District, and why using map and compass rather than GPS captures the real spirit of fell running.

    Also in this episode, Katharine and Niall discuss kit, inspiring running podcasts, and reveal the first Common Ground running book club monthly challenge...
