Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

Today’s guest is Carla Molinaro - Ultra runner, a 'yoga for runners' instructor, AND the world record holder of LEJOG - a little plod from Land's End to John O’Groats! 

Carla most recent achievement was winning Ultra X Scotland - 125km across 2 days circumnavigating the very beautiful Loch Ness. 

She’s certainly had her fair share of disappointments too… such as the time she spent more time than she would have liked in a bush, only then to be consoled by a fellow competitor who offered her the most well known (and scientifically proven) race fuel - a chocolate brownie stuffed with weed. 

#AskJake:  Each week, we'll take one of your questions and Jake will answer it.   Today, we're talking about breathing!!!

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

Today’s guest is Chris Hollinshead - a successful senior and masters runner, a running coach at Castle Coaching Fitness, a tutor for UK Athletics, AND he’s part of the Paralympic athlete talent identification programme. 

Chris hasn’t raced since 2019 (something many of us can relate to given the pandemic) and as much as he is eager to get back, he also wants to apply caution, and he wants other runners to do the same. Now race are slowing beginning to appear again it can be very tempting to sign up for everything and then overtrain and burn out. 

Think about what you are trying to achieve, and work backwards from there. Drop in races as 'stepping stones’ to see where you are by all means, but avoid asking too much from the body.  

Not all races need to be raced. They can be used in different ways. You could use a ’stepping stone’ race to work on different aspects of your running - technique, pacing, mental strategies, race prep etc. 

It is important to think about the physiological and psychological elements that are necessary to return to the race shape that you were once in, prior to lockdown.  

#AskJake:  Each week, we'll take one of your questions and Jake will answer it.   Today, we're talking about protein.

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

On this episode, we speak to carbon negative ultra runner, and former Plodcast guest, Damian Hall. 

Damian has recently released his new book In It For The Long Run. It tells the story of running a first marathon aged thirty-six, dressed as a toilet, and representing Great Britain four years later. 

His midlife-crisis running problem escalated to 100-mile ultramarathons and record-breaking bimbles, culminating in his 261-mile Pennine Way run in July 2020.

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

We also speak with athlete Jenny Spink, the winner of the 2019 Manchester marathon. Jenny lives in Spain, and as amazing as the climate is over there, training in the summer can be TOUGH.

Having represented England more than 50 times, Helen has a personal best of 4:01 in the 1500m. 

She attributes a large part of her success to consistency in training. Helen has always avoided overtraining (something that many of us are not so good at!) which has helped her to avoid injury.

On this episode, we speak to athlete Charlotte Taylor-Green who took part in the Olympic Marathon Trials at Kew Gardens in London on March 26th. 

Charlotte has a personal best time in a marathon of 2:36:54 set in Dublin in 2019. By her own admission, she wasn’t the fastest on paper going into the trials, but she was in great shape and ready to see what she could do. 

Unfortunately, poor timing of the menstrual cycle, and an overwhelming feeling of nausea, meant that Charlotte had to live to fight another day.

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

On this episode, we chat with 1500m runner Holly Archer who recently earned herself a silver medal representing GB at the European Indoor Championships in Poland. 

Holly, who felt super strong through the heats, found herself up against it in the final. The race, which started slowly, was frantic, with jostling throughout the field, and tactical play from two Spanish runners that prevented Holly from hitting the front of the pack when she wanted.  

After a blistering finish to the race Holly placed second, only to endure an agonising wait to see if she was going to be disqualified. Fortunately she wasn’t, and she is now the Indoor 1500m European Champion.

On this episode, Jake and Pete get bent out of shape over the fact they have never won an award, yet they are promoting The Lovejoy Hour who are apparently an “Award Winning Podcast”?? It turns out that the award isn’t all it’s cracked up to be….. as the judges of said award were the show host and the producer!? 

We speak to Tom Craggs - England Athletics Marathon Lead Coach, Road Running Manager, and Runner’s World columnist. Tom’s own running journey didn’t begin as a junior athlete. He began when his Dad was diagnosed with bowel cancer and he signed up for a marathon.

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

Today’s guest is the winner of the 1983 London marathon, Mike Gratton. Back in 1983 things were a lot different from how they are now, particularly in the way of funding and how athletes earn a living. At the time Mike won the London marathon he was a P.E. teacher. For most, spinning a full-time job with running 120+ miles per week may seem impossible, but Mike took it in his stride and saw it as “only two hours training a day”. 

Mike is also a Running Coach and he organises race trips and training camps through 2:09 Events Limited . 

#AskJake:  Each week, we'll take one of your questions and Jake will answer it.  This week it's about long runs when you've got a couple of niggles.

Today’s guest is Richard Newhouse. After being diagnosed with stage 3 bowel cancer in 2019 Richard is determined to give something back to the amazing people that helped him through it. Unlike in a traditional fund raising way, whereby people choose to do something that they have perhaps always wanted to do (a parachute jump for example), Richard has chosen something that he HATES…….. running!

In October he will be taking on the 2021 London marathon. By his own admission he knows NOTHING about running but he is absorbing information like a sponge, and it is this very reason that enabled him to stumble upon the PLODcast.

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

Today’s guest is Ing Kalchthaler - a children’s librarian, a pastor, a big fan of the show, and a beautiful soul with an amazing story. 

At Ing's heaviest she was 153kg, and she physically couldn’t even take out the rubbish! Over the course of only two years Ing lost a whopping 90kg. Despite this impressive feat, and by her own admission, Ing went too far with the weight loss. She reached a point beyond what is deemed healthy and sustainable, and her calorie intake was so low that it caused her hair to fall out. 

Ing is now in a very happy place with her running. She runs six times per week, she loves it, and she is even writing a book on how you can be happy or sad at any weight.
