About this episode
We’re now on week 10 of our Road to London Marathon series and we have a jam-packed show this week that will keep you entertained and informed on your long runs.
This week we check in with Dawna Stone, CEO of the Abbott World Marathon Majors, who offers hints and tips about how to get into Marathons around the world, outlines her plans to extend the Marathon Majors into new territories and tries to work out what is fuelling the current running boom.
PLUS - Carbon or no Carbon? We chat all things ‘Running Shoes’ with Sophie Raworth as we check in to see how her London Marathon Prep is going.
Also when’s good to start experimenting with gels and drinks ahead of London and the problem of training near animals! And how did Paula’s training run with Tour de France Winner Geraint Thomas go?
A reminder we’ve got a great offer for Run Club listeners:
