This week we’re joined by javelin legend and Paula’s BBC TV Co-commentator Steve Backley. A medalist at World, Olympics, Commonwealth and European Championships, Steve comes from a family of runners and despite describing himself as a ‘failed runner’ he loves running and is a Park Run regular.  He’s got loads of amazing stories from meeting Steve Ovett as a kid, taking on Matt Pinsent and Steve Redgrave at Golf, getting stung by a jellyfish while out running and how a run on a deserted beach led to an amazing - but very random -  family reunion.  Plus we've got news of a Special Shakeout in New York and our first listener Guinness World Record.  We've got the Honours Board and our sponsor for it is HIGH5 – the sports nutrition specialists helping people get the most out of their training and races. They want to give you goodies so please get in touch with your nominations.

What a guest we have this week as Jake Wightman joins Paula and Thommo. After coming back from years of injury heartache to take a triumphant 1500m silver at the World Championships in Tokyo, Jake is on top form with Paula & Thommo. Jake is incredibly open about his career so far, from injury turmoil to his split with his Dad as his coach after more than 15 years together. Then there's him proposing to his girlfriend when she agreed to move with him to Manchester. She's a keeper! Jake's chat is funny, honest and incredibly insightful. We hope you'll enjoy it too.
