Hello there, welcome to Run Pod, the Run Club of the podcast world.

I'm glad to have you as a member.

And if you're a new recruit, welcome along.

So this is the place where every episode we chat to someone who shares our passion for all things running related.

Why they run, what they get out of it, what brings them back every time.

Because here's the thing, once you kind of embark on your running journey, that's it.

Anything that generally involves the heart and lungs. I'm okay. Anything involves coordination,

not so good.

Okay, I'd say, did, do, da, do, do. Yeah, that one. Okay, fine. You are a complete machine though. So I was trying to go through, like, to just, you know,

for anyone who's been living under a rock

and doesn't know entirely all the success you've had.

So let's get this right.

Two Olympic golds for rowing.
