    S1 E9: Shoes and Drugs

    This week is our first Bi-weekly release! We're going to split the episodes into discussion/questions/chat and training reviews To clarify, Bi-weekly means both twice a week, and once every two weeks. In this instance, we'll be releasing twice as week so we don't have to cut as much content from our talks. In the first episode of the week we'll be discussing The Secret Runner's impressive collection of shoes, how he goes about choosing his kit, and also discussing the use of painkillers before a race, not something either of us have done or would do, but it's an often discussed topic: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/paracetamol-makes-athletes-run-faster-ldgv26lx9 https://forums.runnersworld.co.uk/discussion/270805/paracetamol-before-marathon Listen on Acast, Spotify and Apple Podcasts https://shows.acast.com/the-secret-runner/episodes https://open.spotify.com/show/0wW7PvzOK0cka10V6DKqmV https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-secret-runner/id1573480443 Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-secret-runner.

    S1 E7: Big Day

    The Secret Runner undertakes his “Big Day” - a full day of training that closely follows the format of his upcoming Long Distance Duathlon. I'll be speaking to him after each of his segments (run, cycle, run again) to find out how he's feeling as soon as he's through the door. Here's a few links about some of the items we discussed during the podcast: an article about "nasal strips": https://runningmagazine.ca/sections/gear/why-you-should-try-nasal-strips-in-your-next-race/a similar Time Trial helmet to the one The Secret Runner showed me during our recording: https://www.wiggle.co.uk/catlike-chrono-aero-wt-time-trial-tt-helmet-2013 Listen on Acast, Spotify and Apple Podcasts https://shows.acast.com/the-secret-runner/episodes https://open.spotify.com/show/0wW7PvzOK0cka10V6DKqmV https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-secret-runner/id1573480443 Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-secret-runner.
