    #179 Relisten Alfie Manthorpe: The British Runner "Everyone" Is Talking About

    How does a runner break through stagnation and start competing at a higher level? In this episode of The Marathon Podcast, Alfie Manthorpe — the British runner everyone seems to be talking about — joins the show to break down his journey, his recent performances, and the training changes that have driven his progress. We talk about Alfie’s background, his experience at altitude in Sierra Nevada, the three key pillars that transformed his running, and how he’s planning to approach the marathon distance this year. We also dig into fueling, easy pacing, self-coaching, and how social media has shaped modern British running culture. A practical, honest conversation for runners looking to train smarter, stay consistent, and take the next step forward. 🎁 Partner Offers Get 20% off a STRAVA annual subscription with code KRISTIAN Save on FlexBeam using this link or code WARWICKRUNS:https://rechargehealthas.sjv.io/55GAPb Start your free Musicbed trial:https://fm.pxf.io/kristianwarwick 🕒 Time Stamps 00:00:00 — Host Updates & Podcast Intro  00:07:00 — Sierra Nevada Altitude Camp  00:09:59 — Alfie’s Running Journey  00:12:39 — Breaking Through Stagnation  00:19:53 — The Three Pillars: Fueling, Shoes & Easy Pace  00:21:55 — Fueling & Hydration Fundamentals  00:31:30 — Self-Coaching & Half Marathon Breakthrough  00:35:34 — Social Media & British Running Culture  00:43:47 — Weekly Training Structure & Heat Adaptation  00:50:16 — Strength, Form & 10K–Marathon Crossover  00:56:48 — Altitude Lessons & Norwegian Influences  01:05:47 — Key Takeaways & Performance Lessons Follow Alfie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alfiemanthorpe/ 🎥 Full episodes + the Boston 2025 documentary:https://www.youtube.com/@Warwickruns 📸 Follow my training journey on Instagram: @warwick.runs 🎶 Music from Musicbed: MB01XPYH8ZYENVAMB0133EV2TCQFZY

In this running podcast, we will mainly focus on everything running. Science, nutrition, training, gear, and much more. When I first created my running platforms, Herm Runs was one of the first people I started following. With a big voice in the running community, I've found his content to be inspiring. Regardless of our different goals as runners, he is very relatable.  In this episode we are talking about how Herm found running, how it has changed his life and how he himself keeps on changing other people's lives with his running content.  Herm recently started working with Adidas, and we are obviously talking about how that came to be and what that is like.  This is one of those episodes where I am really hoping that a lot of people will listen to it, because of the impact it can have.  Start your free Musicbed trial today: https://fm.pxf.io/kristianwarwick Full video + the Boston 2025 documentary: https://www.youtube.com/@Warwickruns  Follow Kristian's journey on Instagram: @warwick.runs  Music from Musicbed: MB01XPYH8ZYENVA MB0133EV2TCQFZY   Full video + the Boston 2025 documentary:    / @warwickruns  Follow Kristian's journey on Instagram: @warwick.runs

    #174 Relisten: Jimmy Whelan - From Pro Cycling to Elite Running & His First Marathon

    Relisten to one of the most popular episodes of The Marathon Podcast: How does an athlete go from professional cycling to elite distance running — in less than a year? In this episode of The Marathon Podcast, Jimmy Whelan joins the show to discuss his remarkable transition from WorldTour-level cycling to professional running. After years racing internationally with EF, Jimmy stepped away from cycling — and within a year ran a sub-30 10K and a 61-minute half marathon, earning his place as a professional runner. We talk about the differences between cycling and running, how aerobic fitness transfers, what surprised him most about running training, and how he’s preparing for his first-ever marathon. This is a fascinating look at elite endurance performance, adaptation, and what’s possible when world-class fitness meets a new discipline. A must-listen for runners, cyclists, and endurance athletes curious about cross-training, aerobic development, and marathon potential. 🎁 Partner Offers Get 20% off a STRAVA annual subscription with code KRISTIAN Save on FlexBeam using this link or code WARWICKRUNS:https://rechargehealthas.sjv.io/55GAPb Start your free Musicbed trial:https://fm.pxf.io/kristianwarwick 🎥 Full episodes + the Boston 2025 documentary:https://www.youtube.com/@Warwickruns 📸 Follow Kristian’s journey on Instagram: @warwick.runs 🎶 Music from Musicbed: MB01XPYH8ZYENVAMB0133EV2TCQFZY 🔗 Watch & Follow
