In training talk, Professor Andy Lane talks about the benefits of raising your awareness

of discomfort. We've got some

cracking rate your runs. You stand on the podium and Steve Smyth tells us how to run a

sub three hour marathon every year for 40 years.

Helen Williams, welcome to marathon talk.

Hello?

Well, how lovely it is to be joined by you on the show. Of course your other half is not with us because his tiny ears are bleeding.

Literally, yeah. And it's not my fault. I didn't shout that loud, honest. You haven't

been nagging him any more than normal. Yeah, but literally he's... Well, I'm a bit

concerned because there is a possibility that his brain is leaking out of his ears.

So he's got a perforated ear drum.

Yeah, very painful. I have to say he is a man so you know his

version of painful is probably not the same as a woman's but yeah it's been it's probably the most pain I've seen I mean since it

probably last happened in fact. Is he sobbing inconsolably to himself on the bed with blood dripping out of his ear onto the pillow?

Grimmassing a lot. I've just left the room. I'm not very sympathetic.
