| 0:00.0 | This episode of Run Pod is sponsored by M&S, where you can shop all your favourite sportswear brands. |
| 0:08.1 | This is a Global Player Original podcast. |
| 0:11.6 | Now, before we start today's episode of Run Pod, well, I'm very excited to be doing an ad for a book that I've actually written myself. |
| 0:19.8 | That's right. I have a book coming out |
| 0:21.5 | and you guessed it. It is about running. After almost 30 years of pounding the pavements, |
| 0:27.1 | going from not being able to run to running marathons and after talking to hundreds of guests |
| 0:31.9 | on Run Pod, I felt it was time. Run is out on March the 14th. It's packed with tips and advice for all levels |
| 0:39.9 | as well as my own experiences and you can pre-order now. The link is in the show notes. |
| 0:49.8 | Hello there. Welcome to Run Pod. And you can be a member, by the way, of the Run Pod Run Club. |
| 0:55.3 | All you have to do is jog, plod, run, sprint, shuffle, whatever comes naturally to you. Just do it. |
| 1:01.6 | It's a run of sorts. It makes you a runner, and this is where runners unite. So I'm Jenny Falconer, and I am so thrilled to be joined on Runompod today by someone who has been flirting with running |
| 1:12.7 | for quite some time now and has been ghosting me because I've been trying to get him to come on |
| 1:18.1 | at Rompod to talk about it. You're more used to see him talk fashion food or music. He's a |
| 1:23.8 | stylist. He's a chef. He's a DJ, a presenter, but he is also a runner. |
| 1:28.5 | I'm not actually a runner. I'm going to say that now. I'm not a runner. I refuse. I'm not a runner. |
| 1:33.9 | You ran this morning. You are there for a runner. I did, I did run this morning. I tell you what, |
| 1:37.9 | I'm not a runner because the minute I say I'm a runner, I'll stop. And this happens in every part of my life because I have the worst |
| 1:45.0 | imposter syndrome you've ever met in your entire life. And I have a theory about this that if I turn |
| 1:50.6 | around and say, I am a runner, then I will stop because I'll suddenly go, oh, but you're not and you |
| 1:55.6 | don't go fast enough and you don't go far enough and you don't do the marathon. But if I say I run, it's very different. Okay, so we have someone who runs. Yay! It's got Kwan! And by the way, this person that runs is |
| 2:06.3 | dressed here looking very like a runner. He's got like trainers, leggings. You've got like the whole |
| 2:12.1 | running kit on. I'm a stylist. If I don't know how to dress for it, then it would be ridiculous. In fact, when I first started running in lockdown, which was lockdown one, I think. Well, no, it was a lockdown two. |
