This is a global player original podcast.

Hello there, welcome along to another gathering of the Run Pod Run Club.

I'm Jenny Falconer here with one mission and that is basically to bring runners together.

And it really, really doesn't matter how good, how fast, how far you can go.

It's about getting up off the sofa and getting out there. We all love that feel-good effect

of a decent run. That's why we go back for more. So in this episode of RunPod, I am joined by a man

who loves running so much. He decided to create a business about it.

In fact, he created the national running show.

The show takes place a couple of times a year and in fact is coming up next weekend in Birmingham at the NEC.

And so with so much to organise, you'd think he'd have run out of time to take off

other challenges but no he's a glutton for punishment and we will hear all about his epic runs

And then I'll be back in time for the national running show, which will be next weekend.

But there's a big outdoor trade show over here, which I come to every year. So no rest post Christmas for me.

No, absolutely. And obviously, you know, it's January. And in this month, lots of people are doing, you know, whether you're doing veganary or you're doing,

there's one called, it's something like manuary, have you heard that, where men grow facial

hair and body hair, you can do that one. It's a bit like Movember. There's also Red

January, which is something we've talked about many times. And this is something that Mike is doing on the month where he's flat out busy,
