Tuesday, March 17, 2026 • Duration 01:18:25

This week I'm joined by Laura Bird who shares her powerful journey from one of the darkest moments of her life to taking on extraordinary endurance challenges.

At 18, Laura attempted to take her own life, an experience that profoundly changed the way she views life, purpose and mental health. In the years since, she has channelled that experience into a series of incredible running challenges to raise awareness and funds for charity.

To mark the 10-year anniversary of her suicide attempt, she ran 10 marathons in 10 days to raise money for the East Anglian Air Ambulance and in 2024, she completed the London Marathon carrying a fridge on her back. She's now gearing up for her next incredible challenge - running 31 marathons in 31 days in May for Rays of Sunshine.

We discuss the logistics of planning these challenges, the power of building a community and the perspective her experience has given her on life and mental health.

An honest and deeply inspiring conversation about resilience, recovery, and finding meaning after the darkest moments.

12 Running Miles Love Trails Edition

Season 1 · Episode 12

Friday, July 10, 2026 • Duration 01:00:42

Live from the trails (sort of).

Last weekend I was lucky enough to head down to the Gower Peninsula for Love Trails Festival. Love Trails is a four day running and music festival but there are also loads of wellness, creative and outdoor experiences as well as a whole host of talks and community events.

This episode is an amalgamation of my thoughts from the weekend, voice notes that were recorded on site and on the trails, and the lovely conversations I had with Emma Henderson, a fellow runners and stunners ambassador, and Charlotte Hogan, founder of Queen Square Run Club in Bristol, which were recorded back in London.

Hopefully this episode gives you an insight into Love Trails Festival and all of the wonderful experiences I had over the weekend. A massive thank you to Runners and Stunners for the opportunity to go to the festival and the Love Trails team for organising everything for us.

11 Running Miles with Jamie Melvin

Season 1 · Episode 11

Tuesday, June 30, 2026 • Duration 56:11

This week I speak to Jamie Melvin who shares his inspiring journey from struggling with alcohol to going sober in his mid twenties.

We talk openly about Jamie's relationship with alcohol, the decision to stop drinking, and the challenges of navigating relationships after taking that first step. We discuss how a single Parkrun sparked his love for running, taking him from his first 10K race to the London Landmarks Half Marathon in support of Shelter, and now to training for the Berlin Marathon while fundraising for Alcohol Change UK.

Jamie also shares the lessons he's learned throughout his sobriety journey, the sense of purpose running has given him, and his advice for anyone who may be questioning their own relationship with alcohol.

An inspirational conversation about the life-changing impact of taking that first step.

10 Running Miles with Josh Gurney

Season 1 · Episode 10

Tuesday, June 16, 2026 • Duration 01:18:41

This week I’m joined by Josh Gurney, founder of RunLuv who shares how one unexpected moment completely changed his life.

In the early days, running provided an outlet for Josh but after collapsing whilst playing cricket in 2023, his perspective shifted overnight. Running was no longer about pace but instead became about finding the joy in movement, connecting with others and building a community.

We discuss living with uncertainty after such a life changing moment and how you build yourself back up. Josh shares his experience of trying different run clubs in London and where the idea of RunLuv came from.

We also touch on the future of RunLuv, the importance of making sport accessible at every level and what community means to him.

An inspiring conversation about perspective, purpose, community, and rediscovering the joy in running.

09 Running Miles with Emma Hunter

Season 1 · Episode 9

Tuesday, June 2, 2026 • Duration 01:09:36

This week I sit down with Emma Hunter, one of the original Runners and Stunners ambassadors, to talk about her journey from cross-country superstar to marathon runner.

We dive into the highs and lows of Emma’s running journey so far, from her very first runs to completing her first marathon, and explore the lessons she’s learned along the way. Emma opens up about the goals that continue to drive her and why finding enjoyment in the process has become just as important as chasing her goals.

She also reflects on how Runners and Stunners has shaped her life and what it’s been like to be part of the community since the very beginning. A conversation full of inspiration, honest reflections, and a reminder that running is about so much more than the finish line.
