    EP61 - What Happens Behind the Scenes of The Montane Winter Spine Race?

    We go behind the scenes at the Montane Winter Spine Race. This week we’re joined by Mel Sykes from the media team at The Spine Race to talk about the reality of running and working on one of the toughest ultras in the world. From long days in brutal conditions to the pressure of turning content around quickly, this is the side of races most people never see. We chat about the runners, media and support crews, the growing demand for race content, strange things runners do in ultras, and whether being on camera changes the experience. Plus: audience questions, checkpoint food debates, death threats, and whether Mel would ever run and work on the Spine again at the same event. We also chat about upcoming races like The Fellsman and future Spine plans, including an entry for next year from previous podcast guest Ellis Bland. Raw, honest, and very RUNcensored. #RUNcensored #TheSpineRace #Ultrarunning #TrailRunning #UKRunning #Ultras #Podcast RUNcensored Podcast 🎙 The unfiltered running podcast with Gary House & Ben Mounsey — honest chats with athletes, coaches and characters from the world of running. 👉 Subscribe and leave us a review — it helps more runners find the show. 👉 Watch the podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RUNcensored 👉 Listen to all episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZGfMfc5i9Q&list=PL_pklymQxtluqvkNmf41MYI7fOk8Ki_YT 👉 Have your say in our listener survey: http://bit.ly/runcensored-survey 🌍 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runcensoredpod 📩 Get in touch: info@runcensored.com info@eastwood-media.co.uk Produced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Media www.eastwood-media.co.uk Hosted on Acast.

    Running a marathon year and want to earn £100? Below is the link you need to take part in the Givestar campaign from our episode sponsor! https://info.givestar.io/marathon2026?utm_source=Runcensored&utm_medium=mix&utm_campaign=givestar+Marathon+2026 Winter trail running is fun… until it isn’t. Gary House and Ben Mounsey share gripping, funny, and sometimes terrifying stories from the UK trails and fells. From hypothermia in races to rescuing lost hikers and strangers in the Lake District, this episode is packed with essential lessons in kit, preparation, and accountability. The lads break down the gear you actually need for winter runs - like waterproofs, hand warmers, bivy bags, and microspikes - while sharing personal tales of dehydration, navigation mishaps, and racing extremes. And one of them (guess who!) also recounts the unforgettable moment of waking up in an emergency tent full of semi-naked men. If you want real-life trail running advice, survival tips, and laughs along the way, this one’s for you. #trailrunning #ultrarunning #mountainrunning #UKrunning #fellrunning #orienteering #RUNcensored #runningtips #winterrunning #mountainrescue #runningcommunity #ultratrail #adventurerunning #Snowdon #LakeDistrict #YorkshireDales RUNcensored Podcast 🎙 The unfiltered running podcast with Gary House & Ben Mounsey — honest chats with athletes, coaches and characters from the world of running. 👉 Subscribe and leave us a review — it helps more runners find the show. 👉 Watch the podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RUNcensored 👉 Listen to all episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZGfMfc5i9Q&list=PL_pklymQxtluqvkNmf41MYI7fOk8Ki_YT 👉 Have your say in our listener survey: http://bit.ly/runcensored-survey 🌍 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runcensoredpod 📩 Get in touch: info@runcensored.com info@eastwood-media.co.uk Produced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Media www.eastwood-media.co.uk Hosted on Acast.

    EP59 - Banned From Drinking Coffee!

    The lads go feral in a full Chat GBT episode of RUNcensored … in fact, Ben is now banned from drinking coffee after 12pm. From Ben’s mobile Nursing Home to Go Karting chaos, yellow sticker bargains, Vinted confessions and wild storytelling, nothing is off limits. We talk New Year’s resolutions (or not), Spar heroics, and upcoming races like Transgrancanaria, Zwift training, orienteering and more. Key questions are answered too: Does Gary still do hairdressing? Who would we love on the pod in 2026? What is Ben's best ever yellow-stickered bargain? And are there any low-key races worth checking out? All the usual RUNcensored nonsense, banter, and very loosely running-related chat. #RUNcensored #RunningPodcast #TrailRunning #UltraRunning #UKRunning #ChatGBT #RunnersUncut #VintedFinds #YellowSticker #RunningCommunity RUNcensored Podcast 🎙 The unfiltered running podcast with Gary House & Ben Mounsey — honest chats with athletes, coaches and characters from the world of running. 👉 Subscribe and leave us a review — it helps more runners find the show. 👉 Watch the podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RUNcensored 👉 Listen to all episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZGfMfc5i9Q&list=PL_pklymQxtluqvkNmf41MYI7fOk8Ki_YT 👉 Have your say in our listener survey: http://bit.ly/runcensored-survey 🌍 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runcensoredpod 📩 Get in touch: info@runcensored.com info@eastwood-media.co.uk Produced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Media www.eastwood-media.co.uk Hosted on Acast.

    EP58 - From 300 Hats to UTMB Glory | VÅGA

    From making a handful of hats to Tom Evans winning UTMB in a VÅGA cap. In Part 2 with Ellis Bland, we dig into the real story behind VÅGA – how it started, the risks, the mistakes, and the moments that defined the brand. We talk hustling at races, becoming a fabric-first brand, resisting hype culture, and why making bombproof kit for long days out matters. Ellis shares the full UTMB story with Tom Evans, the Red Bull collaboration, and the exclusive news that VAGA is now producing headwear for Red Bull athletes globally. There’s also honest chat about Brexit, international expansion, grassroots athlete support, and staying local while going global. Unfiltered, honest, and very RUNcensored. #RUNcensored #TrailRunning #UltraRunning #VAGA #RunningPodcast #UTMB #UKRunning RUNcensored Podcast 🎙 The unfiltered running podcast with Gary House & Ben Mounsey — honest chats with athletes, coaches and characters from the world of running. 👉 Subscribe and leave us a review — it helps more runners find the show. 👉 Watch the podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RUNcensored 👉 Listen to all episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZGfMfc5i9Q&list=PL_pklymQxtluqvkNmf41MYI7fOk8Ki_YT 👉 Have your say in our listener survey: http://bit.ly/runcensored-survey 🌍 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runcensoredpod 📩 Get in touch: info@runcensored.com info@eastwood-media.co.uk Produced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Media www.eastwood-media.co.uk Hosted on Acast.

    EP57 - I’d Rather Set Myself on Fire Than DNF

    Fell running culture, ultra racing, DNFs, identity loss, and rebuilding from injury.In EP57 of RUNcensored, Gary House and Ben Mounsey are joined by Ellis Bland of VÅGA for one of the most honest conversations we’ve had to date.  From racing Borrowdale and Wasdale to beating Rob Hope with a 4:42 final mile, Ellis talks fell running legends, club vests, pub banter, and why fell running is built differently. We get into ultra success, the fear of DNF’ing, spinal injury, body dysmorphia, and the moment Ellis had to accept he might never run again. There’s also some mention of VÅGA, supporting athletes quietly, and why sometimes the best runs never make the headlines. Unfiltered, reflective, and very real.

    EP56 - Why We’d Never Do The Spine Race

    Snow, suffering, sleep deprivation and serious questions about sanity – it’s a full Spine Race deep dive. Gary and Ben unpack this year’s Montane Winter Spine Race, the brutal winter conditions, unforgettable runner stories, and why neither of them would ever sign up. From exposed bones and 100-hour finishes on barely any sleep, to dot watching obsession and media crews living the race alongside the runners. There’s also chat about the National Running Show, ASICS, SportsShoes’ new women’s pro race team, the Elsey Davis Circuit of Cornwall film, UTMB documentary news, and what the future holds for the Spine. Honest opinions, dark humour, and a lot of respect for anyone mad enough to take it on.

    EP55 - Trail Running Through the Lens – Rich Gill on UTMB, Burnout & Going Pro

    In Episode 55 of the RUNcensored Podcast, we’re joined by photographer and friend of the podcast Rich Gill for his third appearance. Rich shares his journey from teaching into photography, how he first picked up a camera, and how running during lockdown helped shape his creative path. We talk openly about burnout, working full time while building a photography career, making himself ill, and the six week break that led to a major life decision. The conversation explores social media pressures, planning content, creative trends, client briefs, and the challenges of working major events like UTMB week. Rich talks about developing a storytelling approach to outdoor and lifestyle photography and reflects on how his work has evolved over time. We also discuss working with elite athletes and brands, including Alex Yee, Leigh Hodgkinson, Elsey Davis, UTMB runners, The Circuit of Cornwall, and Rich’s role on The North Face Explorer Team, plus the importance of community through The Peaky Runners. An honest conversation about creativity, balance, trust, and building a sustainable career in photography and running. #RUNcensored #TrailRunning #RunningPodcast #PhotographyPodcast #OutdoorPhotography #RunningCommunity #CreativeCareers #BurnoutRecovery #UTMB #TheNorthFace #LifestylePhotography #SportsPhotography #RunningLife #SocialMediaForCreatives #RunningMedia #UltraRunning #ContentCreation #PeakyRunners #AlexYee #ElsieDavies #LeighLeighHodgkinson #SportsShoes #RunningEvents #CreativeProcess #PhotographyLife #RunningCulture #UKRunning RUNcensored Podcast 🎙 The unfiltered running podcast with Gary House & Ben Mounsey — honest chats with athletes, coaches and characters from the world of running. 👉 Subscribe and leave us a review — it helps more runners find the show. 👉 Watch the podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RUNcensored 👉 Listen to all episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZGfMfc5i9Q&list=PL_pklymQxtluqvkNmf41MYI7fOk8Ki_YT 👉 Have your say in our listener survey: http://bit.ly/runcensored-survey 🌍 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runcensoredpod 📩 Get in touch: info@runcensored.com info@eastwood-media.co.uk Produced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Media www.eastwood-media.co.uk Hosted on Acast.

    EP54 - We Handed Out Trail Running’s Biggest Awards of 2025 👀

    It’s the final episode of the year and we’re wrapping things up with our completely unofficial RUNcensored Awards, looking back at the biggest moments in trail running and ultra running in 2025. We start with a discussion around trail shoes and trainers, talking through brands regularly seen on UK and European trails including Salomon, HOKA, Nike, adidas, La Sportiva and Altra, before moving on to the events, performances and people that defined the year. The conversation covers major races and formats such as UTMB, Ultra-Trail Snowdonia Eryri, Trans Gran Canaria, the London Marathon, the SHE Ultra, and the ever-growing popularity of the Backyard Ultra. Throughout the episode we hand out the RUNcensored Awards, including trail shoe of the year, best trail event, best running influencer, best performance, and trail runner of the year. Along the way we reference and discuss standout athletes from across the UK and international trail scene, including Sarah Perry, Anna Llewellyn, Jack Scott, Henrietta Alban, Holly Stables, Hugh Chatfield, Abby Hall, and Hannah Cox, as well as broader comparisons to endurance mindsets through figures like Alex Honnold. There’s a deeper discussion around what it really takes to be an ultra endurance athlete, with particular credit given to Sarah Perry following an incredible Backyard Ultra performance and record-setting time. Gary also shares honest advice on social media and content creation, talks about the impact of the Hardest Geezer, and outlines his own plans for 2026, including chasing a sub-2:30 London Marathon. Chris brings ChatGPT into the mix to name the best trail runner, best UK trail runner, and a breakthrough athlete for 2025, before we wrap things up by naming our podcast of the year and reflecting on another big year for the RUNcensored Podcast and the wider trail running community. #trailrunning #ultrarunning #runningpodcast #trailrunners #ultrarunner #trailshoes #utmb #ultratrailsnowdonia #transgrancanaria #sheultra #backyardultra #fkts #londonmarathon #hardestgeezer #uktrailrunning #endurancerunning #runcensored RUNcensored Podcast 🎙 The unfiltered running podcast with Gary House & Ben Mounsey — honest chats with athletes, coaches and characters from the world of running. 👉 Subscribe and leave us a review — it helps more runners find the show. 👉 Watch the podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RUNcensored 👉 Listen to all episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZGfMfc5i9Q&list=PL_pklymQxtluqvkNmf41MYI7fOk8Ki_YT 👉 Have your say in our listener survey: http://bit.ly/runcensored-survey 🌍 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runcensoredpod 📩 Get in touch: info@runcensored.com info@eastwood-media.co.uk Produced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Media www.eastwood-media.co.uk Hosted on Acast.
