    🎤 Hosts: 
    Lloyd Kempson - https://www.instagram.com/lloydkempson
    Episode Highlights:
    Welcome back to the show with host Lloyd Kempson who is joined this week by Jean Pourrat for a very insightful interview. Jean is a runner through and through training for the Paris Marathon and aiming for a sub 2:30. He’s a running shoe expert and the Sport Development Manager for the footwear brand VEJA. On today's episode we discuss and delve into their latest running shoe release, The Condor 3. We were sent the shoe a few weeks ago and have been baning a few miles in them so it was super interesting to understand the process behind making them and some of the tech and specification behind the numbers.
    We talk about sustainability and what that means when making a shoe in 2024, where The Condor 3 fits into the current market amongst the big brands like Nike and Adidas and how you can use the shoe in your running rotation.
    The Condor 3 is available to buy in the UK for an RRP of £160 from selected retailers.

Great

Very good podcast that is entertaining with good information. Very good for easy runs or to listen to in general.

BryceRichards23 ,

Top-notch running podcast!

Loved listening to the interview with Jake Wightman, great questions and nice to hear the guys discuss all topics running with a few good “would you rathers” thrown in as well! Can’t wait to see who they have on next!

Christianolive ,

For Bashir on Athletic Mental Health

First, just want to say you guys are crushing it! This is a response to Bashirs concerns about mental health. A really great podcast by Dr. Greg Wells focuses on this exact topic. He brings on a guest every episode to discuss anything from sleep to meditation and how it translates to athletics.
