| Claudio Berardelli | Coach of Sabastian Sawe and Emmanuel Wanyonyi on world records, future targets and life in Kenya | 26 Oct 2026 | 01:15:15 | |
Courtesy of our sponsors Maurten, Italian coach Claudio Berardelli joins us for remarkably open and honest extended interview.
The coach behind the success of marathon world record holder Sabastian Sawe - the first man under 2 hours in race conditions - and 800m Olympic and world champion Emmanuel Wanyonyi, covers a huge range of topics.
In the first half, we discuss Claudio’s unconventional journey to become a running coach (having previously raced as a cyclist and studied sports science), the highs and lows of living and coaching in Kenya - including the doping culture that is casting a shadow over the country, including past athletes he has worked with - and his coaching techniques.
In the second half, Claudio gives an insight into Sawe’s remarkable run in London and talks about his targets in the future, including the Olympics and more technical courses. We also talk about Wanyonyi’s chances of breaking the 800m world record, whether he could move up in distance, and tactical plans for the New York City Marathon - where Benson Kipruto leads the men’s field.

Hannah and Rich are back to preview the Chicago Marathon, where Sharon Lokedi takes on a fast course for the first time in her career - taking on Brigid Kosgei.

There's a look at the UK Athletics consideration standards for the World Championships in Beijing, Matchroom's signing of 16-year-old sprinter Bronson Hearn-Smith and why it could be exciting for the sport, a look at the World Athlete of the Year nominations - and an update on Andy Diaz Hernandez taking part in their verison in the Italian version of Strictly Come Dancing.

| Mark English | European 800m champion | 24 Sep 2026 | 00:39:27 | |
A month on from winning gold at the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham, Ireland's Mark English joins the podcast to talk through his 2026 season - the best of his career so far.
English discusses his coaching relationship with Justin Rinaldi, and how committing to a full-time athletics career (having qualified as a doctor) have helped him kick on, and the satisfaction of becoming a European 800m champion, following years of setbacks.
Please note - Mark had to change devices through this interview, and there is a noticable change of audio quality, which we have done our best to rectify.

| Andreas Almgren | European 10,000m champion | 16 Sep 2026 | 00:54:06 | |
European 10,000m champion Andreas Almgren takes time out to speak to Podium, courtesy of sponsors Maurten, ahead of the World Road Running Championships in Copenhagen.
Almgren produced one of the most extraordinary performances of the year when he lapped almost everyone in Birmingham to win gold and he's following that up with a marathon debut in New York - in one of the most anticipated debuts over the distance this year.
The Swedish athlete talks to Podium about his unlikely move to distance events having started in football and the 800m, how his mentality is one of his super strengths, training with Jakob Ingebrigtsen and about his build-up to New York.

| Agnes Ngetich | World cross country champion and 10k road world record holder | 15 Sep 2026 | 00:26:38 | |
Courtesy of sponsors Maurten, Agnes Ngetich speak to Podium ahead of the World Road Running Championships in Copenhagen, where she will race the half marathon.
Ngetich is threatening the world record over that distance, having already run 28:46 over 10k on the roads - the best mark ever. She also won gold at the World Cross Country Championships earlier this year but has unfinished business on the track - having recovered from fourth place in Tokyo to set one of the fastest 3000m times ever in Monaco in July.
Ngetich discuses her background, route into the sport and so much more.

Hannah and Rich wrap up the day two action in Budapest, where Keely Hodgkinson finished second to Audrey Werro despite the Olympic champion admitting she tore her hamstring just four weeks ago.
Georgia Hunter Bell spoke of her pride after finishing second to Klaudia Kazimierska in the 1500m, having claimed three out of the four titles she’d been going for this season, while Melissa Jefferson-Wooden and Kenny Bednarek are halfway through completing the sprint double.
We also look at what’s working, and what isn’t, at the Ultimates - and whether the field events are getting enough screen time after Haruka Kitaguchi produced a lifetime best throw to win the javelin.

| Phoebe Gill | British champion and Olympian | 01 Sep 2026 | 00:46:48 | |
At the age of just 17, Phoebe Gill represented Great Britain at the Paris Olympics having won the British 800m title - it was a rapid rise for a runner many think will be a generational talent.
But Phoebe has quickly learnt about the ups and downs of this sport, having missed almost all of 2025 - before returning this season having linked up with Mark Rowland.
Note: this interview was recorded shortly before the World Under-20 Championships, which Phoebe unfortunately had to withdraw from - and there are a few references to this throughout the interview.

We have to fess up - the first recording of this was either lost or corrupted, and we were gutted! So, Rich, Hannah and Sikhalo from Activate the Burners picked ourselves back up again (Rich was devastated!) and whizzed through a second record to react to Audrey Werro's win over Keely Hodgkinson at the European Athletics Championships, with Femke Broeders-Bol taking bronze.
We also fly through the rest of the night - including a return to form for Gianmarco Tamberi.

Hannah and Rich look ahead to the Saturday's Diamond League meeting - the London Athletics Meet - where Josh Kerr will conclude 'Project 222' to try and break Hicham El Guerouj 's mile world record of 3:43.13 that has stood since 1999 - but could Yared Nuguse spoil the party?
We look at whether two more records could go in the 800m, with Keely Hodgkinson having been talked up for the women's mark - set in 1983 - but coming into this on the back of an injury in training a few weeks ago, and Emmanuel Wanyonyi a contender in the men's race - at the stadium where David Rudisha smashed the record at London 2012.
There's plenty more to look forward to as well - and we'll be back for a podlet at the end of the meet on Saturday.

| Round-Up | Novuna UK Athletics Championships 2026 review | 22 Jun 2026 | 01:16:46 | |
With Rich away on holiday, Hannah’s roped in husband, former British champion and full-time athletics coach Luke Gunn to review the British Championships in Birmingham, after Luke helped guide Sarah Calvert, Issy Boffey and Will Battershill to medals.
Places for the European Championships were also up for grabs and there were plenty of talking points - from Keely Hodgkinson’s injury scare in the 400m (she has since said she left the Champs “healthy”) to the latest in the Amy Hunt v Dina Asher-Smith rivalry.

| Megan Keith | European medallist and Scottish record holder | 18 Jun 2026 | 00:59:03 | |
Great Britain and Scotland's Megan Keith joins us ahead of the UK Athletics Championships in Birmingham, where the 24-year-old will be back to target another European medal this summer - a few weeks after another home event at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games.
Megan's been in terrific form in 2026, breaking the Scottish record at the Diamond League meeting in Oslo and impressing with a third place finish at the New York City Half Marathon March.
It's been great progress from the Scot, who's bounced back from injury heartbreak at the Paris Olympic Games to establish herself as one of Britain's most exciting endurance athletes on the circuit.
