080: Flying solo, Tokyo targets, and REALLY high clouds!

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

On this episode, Jake is forced to host the show on his own as Pete the Producer has ‘miscalculated’ his run and can’t make it back in time. Despite Jake suggesting Pete ‘pick up the pace a bit’.

 

Fortunately, today’s guest is so epic that you won’t even notice the absence of the show producer! We speak to Jess Turner - British 400m hurdler AND soon-to-be Olympian!

 

Competing in her first Olympic Games Jess is clearly ecstatic about the whole thing. In fact cloud 9 doesn’t cut it….. no cloud below 100 is even worth mentioning!

 

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

079: Pete’s alarm call, painting by numbers & getting pumped

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

Today’s guest is Anna Harding from The Running Channel. Back from a busy few days filming with team in the Scottish Mountains, Anna was happy to kick back, chill out, and talk all things running! 

After a recent stint on the injury bench due to a calf tear, Anna is now well and truly on the comeback trail and has a lofty goal of qualifying for the Boston Marathon in her sights (sub 3hrs 30mins). 

Anna runs to challenge herself, look after her mental health, and she loves the adventure of preparing for ambitious goals.  You can see her latest video for The Running Channel about the Boston Marathon by [CLICKING HERE]

078: Badass half marathon tips, my mate Mike and a killer quote!

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

On this episode, Jake's convinced himself that he's best friends with Mike Gratton.  Mike's the 1983 winner of the London Marathon, a respected and brilliant  running coach... and also runs his events company, 2:09 Events, who organise running events all around the world.

Mike's the show's favourite running coach (except for Jake, of course), and he's agreed to come back to share more of his awesome knowledge; this time round is centred on training for marathons.  If you missed Mike's previous appearance on the PLODcast, you neeeeeed to check out Episode 61

077: Timepiece transactions, pacy pandas, and a matter of seconds!

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

Today’s guest is Kate Carter - lifestyle editor for the Guardian, a presenter on The Running Channel, AND holder of the World Record for…. wait for it…..  'Fastest female marathon runner in an animal costume’! 

As impressive as this feat is, Kate has had her fair share of disappointments and setbacks. Namely missing out on a sub 3hr marathon by a matter of seconds, and although that race resulted in her being effectively ‘carried across the line’, it did result in a huge PB, and she has since achieved her sub 3 badge.

076: Traily trails, running for good and gammy toes!

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

Today, we chat with one of the most inspirational ladies on the planet - Fiona Oakes - holder of not one but FOUR world records, including ‘Fastest female to run a marathon each continent and North Pole’. 

One of the many reasons that make Fiona so remarkable is her sheer grit and determination to use her running achievements as a platform to create awareness of veganism. When she isn’t pounding the tarmac and banking the miles, she spends her time looking after over 600 animals at Tower Hill Stables Animal Sanctuary.
