It's Wednesday,

the 5th of July 2017, I'm Martin Yelling.

He's Tom Williams.

This is episode 391 of marathon talk. I'm going to do. On this week's show we chat about the British Athletics Championships

Mo Farra Reflect on Nike's Breaking 2 project, Yuki runs a Gold Coast marathon,

Preston want at Ben Ashworth Way, plus you guys rate your runs, stand on the podium, rock

kick it all around the world, and we've got the second part of our brave athlete interview

with proff Simon Marshall and three-time world exterior champion Leslie Patterson.

Tom Williams what have you been up to?

What have I been up to you not a massive amount I have to say so we've been fairly quiet

in the Williams house I have I tell you what though I've been loving the tour again

Forgot it even started what I know can you believe that well some of us don't sit around in the evenings at six PM watching the telly. I know I was sat with Liz the other

day and I said oh it's day two of the tour. We haven't even watched it. There was a time when I used to be, you know, watching it with enthusiasm.

Oh, I love it. It's been, it's been my only concern. Helms and I watch it every year. We don't really

watch any other cycling really. We're not massive cycling fans or anything, but we just love the tour.

Yeah. And my only concern is Skye are looking so ridiculously dominant in control already.

I worry they're just going to boss the whole thing.

And I, you know, I really like going Thomas, I quite like Chris Froum, I quite like

a guy to win, but you want it to be interesting in an exciting

racing with Valverde breaking his kneecap on the first day. Oh I mean I know

nothing I have I'm behind I'm behind it all of this.

So who won the first stage?
