Ep 202 - Nick Butter on running a marathon in every country (Part 2)
Send us a textThe is Part 2 of the Nick Butter interview after he became the first runner ever to complete a marathon in all 196 countries in the world.

Ep 199 - Rob Koehler, ex-WADA deputy director general on doping
Send us a textWow, we’ve got a treat of an episode for you. For many months, Jody and David have time and again brought up the issue of doping as the subject seems to permeate every discussion of athletic achievement. Now, to separate fact from fiction, the chaps speak to former World Anti-Doping Association deputy director general Rob Koehler who offers an inside look at the issues at hand and the state of athletics today. He also explains why he feels ALL Russian athletes should be banned at the Olympics. This really is an eye-opener and worth a listen. Rob also discusses his new role as head of Global Athlete, an athletes advocacy group with the power to stand up to brands and associations where power is entrenched (you won’t believe how bad this is until you hear his examples of this happening!). Plus there’s some gibberish from the guys before the interview gets started. Enjoy! If you enjoyed this episode please SUBSCRIBE to get every episode delivered to you before everyone else.
