Send us a textIn this episode, Allie talks about her race experience leading an all-female running squad across Scotland from Fort William to Inverness. Ali reveals the thinking behind putting together this group and the opportunity it gave to have a completely different race experience for the women involved.  As per Allie, it was an epic event and one of the big things from this chat with David is she reveals the difference between running in a mixed race. Those differences were starkly exposed when Allie talks about her Piece of String race experience. The Piece of String race is more of a mental as well as physical challenge with the competitors unaware of total race distance which is kept secret by Centurion. Eye-opening! Plus all the usual rubbish from Jody and David before and after. :) Enjoy! If you enjoyed this episode please SUBSCRIBE to get every episode delivered to you before everyone else.

Send us a textMark Mastalir is interesting is so many ways.He has an impressive background as a runner. In 1992 he was an All-American at Stanford in the 1500 metres, has a 3:58 mile under his belt and competed in the 1992 Olympic Trials.But that's not why he's on the podcast. As Chief Marketing Officer at Halo Neuroscience, he's involved with a company that promises an improvement in performance through its neuroscience technology that connects brain and body. Not only that, Mark is (we reckon) the only dedicated sports agent for ultrarunner athletes, representing some of the biggest ultra talent in the world. David and Jody get the lowdown on both.Enjoy!If you enjoyed this episode please SUBSCRIBE to get every episode delivered to you before everyone else.Join the conversation!

Send us a textBoy, is Holly Rush an interesting guest in this episode of Bad Boy Running! (And Jody and David didn't make a single joke about nominative determinism!) Starting out in marathons as fun runner, Holly explains her journey from standing as a spectator watching with a beer to going all the way to the European Championships and representing England and Great Britain. She talks about her frustration at trying to beat a PB that just wouldn't fall and her eventual move into ultrarunning. That, in itself, is a fascinating story, but now Holly leads the Asics Frontrunner programme that brings on ordinary runners as ambassadors for the brand. David quizzes Holly on the programme and her thoughts about running social media influencers and the direction of the sport. And then the discussion turns to Marathon Talk for which Holly is a presenter.  Enjoy! If you enjoyed this episode please SUBSCRIBE to get every episode delivered to you before everyone else.

Send us a textWe know cyclists have a ton of places they can hang out socially (so we can avoid those places...), but what about runners? Well, the runner's cafe Mile 27 aimed to offer a place for runner's to come together to both run, socialise and be a community in central London. And it worked... for a time. In this episode, Jody and David speak to its founder George Rendall about the idea behind the cafe/club, what it took to get working and what happened in the end (spoiler: he has another coffee shop, Lane Eight Coffee in Dulwich) The great thing about this episode is how open and honest George is about everything that went wrong and why it didn't quite work as planned. A real insight into trying to turn your ideas into reality. Enjoy! If you enjoyed this episode please SUBSCRIBE to get every episode delivered to you before everyone else. Join the conversation!

Send us a textThe Original Mountain Marathon (The OMM) is one of the longest running event series in the UK. It rightly has the position as one if the most challenging series, not simply because of the distances or elevation in any of the remote locations where the OMM is set, but also because of the logistics competitors need to get spot on if they are to do well.  David speaks to Stuart Hamilton, events director at The OMM about the history of the event and what it really takes to put an event on.  David also sets up another challenge for Jody... that may just result in the end of the podcast.  Enjoy!
