We're back and I'm back chatting again with Dom Halbert, joined this time by his wife Christina.

From junior triathlons to winning fun runs and then going into cross-country skiing and biathlon before returning to triathlon and winning the overall age-group title at Ironman Barcelona on his debut at the distance.

There are not many runners who achieve age-gradings of over 90% but Nicola is one of them. Now in the V55 category Nicola still races at under 4 minutes per kilometre! What's more she has a wonderfully balanced and positive approach to her running which we can all learn from. Nicola trains regularly with Cambridge and Coleridge and also comes to my Wednesday Run sessions. She is an inspiration for those finding it difficult to improve and find motivation as they get into their 40s and 50s. In this chat we discuss what has shaped Nicola as a runner and the secrets of her success. We wish her every success! You can follow Nicola McBride on Strava.

There is something for everyone in this, one of my most informative and enjoyable chats. We talk in depth about Norman's training and racing and how he has managed to reach such a high level at the same time as being a doctor and having a young family. Norman has a 2:16 PB for the marathon and hopes to go quicker still in Manchester in April. He has run a 64 for the half and has just earned his first England vest! He hasn't been running that many years and there could be a lot more to come from this knowledgeable man who speaks openly and intelligently about running. We cover training methods, race preparation and nutrition, and how to combine a demanding job and young family with the kind of mileage and quality required to compete at his level. Enjoy Norman's wisdom!!:) Follow us on Instagram @camendurancesportspodcast and like our Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/Cambridge-Endurance-Sport-Podcast-112279984010325/

As is often the case I really didn't have enough time to talk properly to David about his amazing experiences on a bike. We did manage to cover his getting into cycling in Cambridge and follow through the start of his career which took him to teams in , Belgium, France , the UK and then Italy. From his base there he rode some UCI 1.1 races and has fond memories of being on the wheel of the likes of Damiano Cunego and Cadel Evans.

Mark was a great runner himself. A National Cross Country winner and many England vests to his name. For the last 10 years or so he has been building an incredibly successful group of athletes at Cambridge and Coleridge. He has a bit of a reputation as a hard task master but he is a friendly chap and what comes across is his love of running and his desire to get the best out of his group and for the club as a whole. He was an obvious choice for the podcast and has already been mentioned by 3 previous guests. Mark talks about his own running, his coaching ethos and his work with the London Marathon and the National Junior training squad. I definitely want to get him back on as there is so much more he can tell us. This is a must listen episode!

I'd like to think that there aren't that many people in the area who are older than me and could destroy me on the bike but Bob Watson is certainly one of them! He also has a running 5K personal-best of 14:48 (a little while ago). He has some funny stories to tell We also chat about training methods and how he got so fast on the bike… how can he be so old and yet so fast? Is it all in the aerodynamics?. I don't think so. We can learn a lot from Bob! You can find him on Twitter here https://twitter.com/fetchdrbob?s=21.
