    It’s almost back to normal for our co‑hosts this week, both have actually been out doing a bit of training! You lot, meanwhile, have been absolutely crushing it over on Strava, and we’ve got not one but two Heavy Flexes this week And our Tales from the Trails comes from somewhere truly special, all the way from the Isles of Scilly. If you fancy winning a Yoback from our friends at Eastnole, you’ll need to act fast. And Harrier Trail Running are on the lookout for product testers, so tune in if you want to get involved. The coaches dish out some wisdom for a listener who keeps tripping up on the trails. Do your feet seem to find every rock and root before sending you flying? If that sounds familiar, tune in, we’ve got some great tips to help keep you upright. To wrap things up, Gary and Eddie share some Lakeland wisdom, the kind that might just help you reach that finish line in Coniston. If you’re heading to the Lakeland 100 this year, this episode is absolutely, unequivocally for you!  Content contains affiliate links which help support this channel at no cost to you.

    Trish Patterson - National Three Peaks FKT #235

    This week our very own Trish Patterson joins us to share all the gory details from her record‑breaking National Three Peaks Challenge. What’s the challenge, you ask. The National Three Peaks involves summiting the highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales. Most people drive between the trailheads. Some cycle and a special few run. However you tackle it, the clock starts at the first trailhead and stops at the final one. Trish ran the whole thing. All 450 miles.  Heavy flex!

    The Ultimate Guide to Training on Holiday #234

    We are back! Thank you all so much for your patience while we both grabbed some much‑needed family time. I’d love to say we’re refreshed… but the grind never really stops, and the heroic amount of food and drink Gary put away is starting to take its toll. Time to slam the cookie jar shut before he’s forced into a full wardrobe update. Thank goodness Rebecca is part of our coaching team, because this week’s question needed the kind of proper medical know‑how only she can bring. You lot have also been busy racking up the miles on Strava, and we’ve got an inspiring, heart‑warming bunch of Heavy Flexes and Tales from the Trails to share. Make sure you hang around to the end, or pop over to Instagram to check out July’s competition, supported by our good friends at Eastnole.

    Ed Payne - From DNF to Spine Champion #233

    This week’s guest turned a 2025 DNF into a winning performance. After the heartbreak of last year, Ed Payne came back swinging, and what a comeback it was. A superb race saw him kiss the wall in just over 82 hours, taking the overall win at the 2026 Montane Summer Spine. Eddie’s flying solo on hosting duties, while Ed takes us through all the deets, the highs, the lows, the finish‑line feels, and exactly what it takes to conquer the Pennine Way when it's doing it's best to break you.

    Running After Surgery #232

    Western States weekend delivered in style, and how good was it to see Fi Pascall smashing a huge course PB. Absolutely massive effort, kudos, Fi. We’ve also got a very emotional listener intro, live from the 2026 Summer Spine Race, Rebecca helps runners who are finding their running legs again after surgery. Strava is overflowing with inspiration, big miles & big smiles. Heavy Flex is stacked, Tales from the Trails brings even more inspirations, and we round things off with a the big debate... who would be your perfect pacer?

    Anna Rutherford - Ultra Scotland 100 Champ #231

    This week, we sit down for a chat with Ultra Scotland 100 champion, Anna Rutherford. Anna made history as the first ever female to win the Ultra Scotland 100-mile ultramarathon. Not only did she take the overall win, she smashed the previous course record — finishing in 20 hours, 53 minutes, and 25 seconds, cutting more than three hours off the old record of 24:19:25. In doing so, she also became the first ever female to win outright at a GB Ultras event. We go right back to the beginning of her journey, exploring how she balances solo parenting three young children while still putting in some truly epic training miles. And we’re excited to see what she can do next at the 2026 Race Across Scotland.

    Over the Hill or Just Getting Started? #230

    Both hosts have actually been out running this week, nothing wild, still baby steps for them both, but you can hear it already… that little lift in their voices. They’re loving having the wind in their faces again, even if it’s only for a few miles at a time. The coaches dive into a great question from an athlete with some big goals, but who might just need a proper cheerleader in her corner. Strava, as always, does not disappoint. You lot have been out there getting it done on the streets and the trails, serving up some sensational Heavy Flexes and a couple of cracking Tales from the Trails. And to round things off, we reveal our chosen Mastermind subjects, which may or may not expose some very niche obsessions.
