Hello there, welcome to RunPod, the Run Club of the podcast world. I'm Jenny Faulkner, here to

encourage you to get up off the sofa and get out there, even if it's not the nicest day, even if it's not the

warmest day, sometimes just getting out there, even for a short jog or even a walk, is better

than just sitting on the sofa. I mean, I know it's tempting when you're all cozy and the thought

of getting cold and stepping outside isn't that much fun, but honestly, how much better do you feel

every time you've been out there?

How much more alive do you feel when you've run?

How much more do you enjoy that slice of cake that you've earned after running and burning the calories?

It makes it even tastier.

Well, today's guest on RunPod is a man.

I have known for a long, long time.

We used to appear back in the day on GM TV at the same time. I was a presenter. This fella was often glaming people up doing like special

hair makeovers. He is one of our top hairdressers with a gorgeous salon in Sloan Square in London

and an impressive list of clients, including a few

royals, Duchess of Cambridge. But here's the thing. He is also a runner. Welcome to Runpod,

Richard Ward. Oh, thank you for having me, Jenny. Thank you so much. I've been really excited to

talk to you about something that's not related to hair for a change.

That's the thing.

Every time we've worked together, it's always been because you've been doing hair and I've been chatting to you about it.

Absolutely.

This will be a completely different conversation for us.
