    Marathon to Ultra #196

    Another week closer to the 2026 Northern Traverse, and Eddie and Gary are deep in the trenches of training, some days fun times, some days sad times, all of it inching them forward. Listeners are in the thick of their own big‑race prep too, including one brave soul wondering whether you can smash a road marathon and then step up to an ultra. Winter bugs are everywhere as well, and everyone seems to be sniffling through their long runs. When should you ease off, and when is it fine to crack on? Eddie and Gary share what’s worked for them.

    Megan Boxall - Run Great Britain #193

    Today’s guest is in the midst of an extraordinary adventure: the Run Around Great Britain challenge, a human‑powered loop of the entire coastline. It’s part endurance feat and part love letter to the country. We catch up with Megan Boxall 117 days into her journey. She talks us through the mishaps, the coastlines, the kindness of strangers, and the moments that make big adventures feel deeply human. She’s well over halfway now, but still so much to explore.
