I'm Martin yelling, he's Tom Williams, and this is Marathon Talk. Welcome to episode 11 of marathon talk the long run special this week where we've got a little bit about us we've got a three part interview with midji Thompson we've got a two part Tony's trials we've got a three-part interview with Midi Thompson.

We've got a two-part Tony's trials.

We've got some mantras, which we seem to keep forgetting recently.

So we've got a couple in there for you.

To keep you going on your long run.

We've got some news about marathon or half marathon records and

great runners winning great races. We've got a training talk about what to do

straight after the long run.

We've got a rant and a rave, and we've got some great questions.

And now this is the long run show and a lot of you listeners have been asking for a show to keep

your company on your longest runs.

So Martin what have you been up to me?

Well last week I was saying how dull my running had been in the fact that I'd stopped some way from home and

had to run walk back.

So I've kind of been managing at a little bit this week. I did not go for a run for a couple of days.

I've had this recurring ITB problem for a while so I really know how to manage it and now I'm I'm back doing a little

bit of running it's all been light actually just light 45 minutes a couple of

times and then last weekend I did actually make it out for an hour and a half.

So it's good. I'm pleased with the way it's come back.

Oh nice and back up running reasonably long already then.

Yeah, it's one of those niggles that I kind of know what to do with.

So as long as I rest it, stretch it out a bit, jump on the foam roller, do nothing crazy, within a couple of days it tends to back off.
