Welcome to the running channel podcast coming to you from Tokyo.

This is day two of our time at the World Athletics Championships and we are going to be catching up on what's happened in the last 24 hours.

Yeah, I've got to say my jet lag is a thing of the past, especially after the adrenaline that was pumping around our veins in that

stadium last night. Yeah, you actually showed up to work, which was a bonus this far, this far through

the championship. You know what? Jet lag is a thing of the past. Sleep, mate. It's so important.

It not only fixes your face, fixes your body your brain your mind everything

and now i'm fixed yeah it still hasn't been for a run though well we're gonna catch up on what's happened

in the last 24 hours including our experiences both at the track and field and away from it and also

answer your questions and again a huge thank you to Assex for supporting this podcast

and sponsoring us out here. Let's get into it.

I remembered now I've had some sleep that we did not fly over the North Pole in getting here.

Oh yeah. Someone asked this question. I believe it was Alan, Alan, Alan, Alan, Alan, Alan, Alan, Alan, on Instagram. So in answer to your question, Alan, no. I did ask the captain. I did ask the captain. I saw you checking on your screen for the flight master. I said on the way, I said, are we flying over the North Pole and he goes now over China. Oh. But maybe on the way back. Maybe on the way back.

They're still hope, mate, because we are flying with a different airline on the way back.

We are.

We are.

So anything is possible.

If you just believe.

This is the section we're going to update people before we get into the actual action

on the track and the roads.

I think we need to have a daily check-in.

Been for a run yet, Rick?

No. No. I don't think it's a good idea. How far did you run today? Oh, I ran just over 17 kilometers. Yeah, I ran 10 miles. How, how far did you run, Rick? Listen. Was it to the platform and we got on the wrong train when it took us an hour to get to the podcast studio rather than 24 minutes because you were in charge of directions and you took us on the wrong train and we went went further away from the studio rather than going closer to it. Correct. You have to prioritize things. I woke up at 8 o'clock and I thought, could go for a run. Just rolled over and had another hour. No, I will pull you up on that. There is no way on earth that the thought, should I go for a run or could go for a a run came into your mind. It's probably in the same.
