It's Wednesday the 14th of November 2012. I'm Martin to do. I'm going to I'll On this week's show we speak to 16th Placer in the London 2012 Men's Olympic

Marathon Ozzy Michael Shelley. We ask what were your biggest marathon

training mistakes? There's some news from Beijing and Bormuth and

Sodbury and Snowden and a runner who's completed 500 sub 330 marathons. You rate your run, we rave and we get muddy in this week's

cross-country training talk. Tom, where are you this week?

I'm still not at home and I'm missing my girls I can't believe it. I am still

touring the UK. The car just rocked up 2,000 miles. That doesn't include all the driving out at Northern

Island or the flight there or the flight home from Southampton to Yorkshire at the weekend and

then back down again. So yeah, I am a busy busy busy boy I'm in twicking them at the moment at

park run HQ I'm absolutely loving meeting everyone I met all the South

London teams last night I met the Reading and that area teams the like before. So it's been

great, really great, but I'm unbelievably missing my girls.

And tired when you're away from home for a long time. Your routine changes,'t it and I know what you're like.

Yeah you're getting a little bit senior now and you do like your routines.

I do like my routines. I was also this weekend I was taking part in a philosophy of running

conference at the Humanities Research Institute at the University of Sheffield get me out.

Well that sounds posh. Well it was probably the most grown-up thing I've ever done in my life, certainly down late.

It was a load of fun. Paul Faulkner and John Pike set it up, two philosophers from Sheffield, both

really good runners.

Port Fonner presented on really trying and merely trying and the difference between the two.

And John Pike on the purposes and the practice of running.

It was great. I was on the panel.
