17. The Divide in Running No One Talks About… and Why It Needs to Stop

Season 2 · Episode 4

Sunday, November 9, 2025 • Duration 53:40

In this episode, I dive into the two sides of the running world: the hobby-runner community and the performance-driven, competitive side. Both matter. Both are valid. And both deserve space. I explore why we need to show more patience, tolerance, and respect for each other—no matter which approach to running speaks to you. The sport is big enough for everyone.

I also share some huge personal news: I’m officially a URUNN pacer/ambassador. URUNN is a powerful training platform co-founded by @MoFarah, and I’m excited to bring my experience and energy to this next chapter.

And after keeping them tucked away for weeks, I finally laced up the Adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 1. I break down my initial impressions, how they feel on foot, and whether they live up to the hype in the super-shoe world.

If you care about running culture, marathon training, community, and staying motivated, this episode is for you.

16. Let’s Talk About Elitism in Running + NYC Marathon Advice + Kipstorm Lab Review

Season 2 · Episode 3

Sunday, November 2, 2025 • Duration 47:54

In this episode, I get real about something that’s been bothering me — elitism in running. Too often, some people act like they own the sport, breaking others down if they don’t meet their expectations or “standards.” Running should be about community, growth, and inclusivity — not gatekeeping.

I also share my own New York City Marathon story, offering a bit of encouragement and race-day advice for anyone gearing up to run the 2025 NYC Marathon. If you’ve ever doubted your place in this sport, this one’s for you.

Plus, I dive into my early thoughts on the Kirun Kipstorm Lab running shoe before my full review drops soon — this one’s definitely a shoe to keep an eye on. 👟

And lastly, I want to give a massive shout-out to my friend @BenIsRunning and his new merch drop — go check it out and show your support for a fellow creator in the running community.

🎧 Tune in, share your thoughts in the comments, and don’t forget to subscribe for more honest conversations about running, mindset, and marathon training.

03. Why Every Runner Needs A Thomas In Their Lives!

Season 1 · Episode 3

Wednesday, May 21, 2025 • Duration 33:11

I have run 5 marathons so far, and I do not doubt that I will run many more. The common denominator across all those marathons has been my friend Thomas from @Believeintherun , who has supported, advised, and encouraged me through this journey.

Put simply, I owe a lot to this man! Thomas, you're a gem in this community, and I wish everyone had a Thomas in their lives.

02. What makes Someone A "Real" Runner?

Season 1 · Episode 2

Sunday, May 18, 2025 • Duration 44:09

I explore what truly makes someone a "real runner" by challenging toxic running culture and redefining what it means to belong in the running community. The running world needs to be more inclusive and welcoming to all who enjoy putting on their shoes and heading out the door.

• Arbitrary standards like pace, knowledge, race participation, or years of experience don't determine if you're a "real runner"
• If you have a relationship with running and make time for it despite life's demands, you're already a runner
• Parents and full-time workers who find time to run deserve immense respect for their dedication
• Finding joy in running is more important than achieving specific times or meeting others' expectations
• Looking at your progress in context rather than comparing to others leads to greater satisfaction
• YouTube channels like Jason's Running, Ben is Running, Kofuzi, and Cole Running offer authentic running content worth checking out
• The Nike Streakfly 2 (£164) makes an excellent shoe for fast 5K runs and interval training sessions
• Suunto Race S offers a compelling alternative to Garmin watches at a lower price point (£299)

Next episode will discuss Thomas from Believe in the Run – be sure to tune in on Wednesday!
