It's Wednesday the 30th of July 2014. I'm Martin yelling. He's Tom Williams and this is

episode 238 of Marathon Talk. I'm going to This week's show the Commonwealth Games is underway. We look at the men's and women's marathons. Mike Shelley takes home a surprise Ozzy Gold,

Steve Wei runs a new British V40 record.

And whilst Kenyans finish won two in the women's race,

Australian, Jess Trengoes,

snatches of bronze in the closing stages.

We speak to top home countries finishes in both races.

Scotland's Susan Partridge and Derek Hawkins as well as the first English

finishes across the line Louise Damon and the man of the moment Sir Steve Way.

The Magic Mile is underway, it's time for fast, you rate your your run stand on the podium and tell us

where you're racing next in the launch pad Tom how you doing hey I tell you

what I am great after watching that marathon or both the marathons.

They were really good, weren't they?

Has it sparked your mojo?
