Podcasts about London Marathon

Episode Summary Runner and content creator Josh Berlari (Josh "Josh Berlari") breaks down the training behind his 2:29 London Marathon (2025) and a near-sub-15 5K, pushing back on rumors of "minimal training." He shares that his peak was about 100 km per week, with a focused 4-5 week speed block before a marathon block that overlapped with fasting during Ramadan. Based in Bali for five years, Josh explains how he built a 140K+ Indonesian-language Instagram following by running in costumes (including a suit and a Go-Jek helmet), while trying to balance entertainment with a serious pursuit of elite performance. He also discusses his full-time e-commerce and digital marketing role selling hearing aids into the US, managing global operations after scaling to seven figures per month. Now coached by Mark Scott, Josh details his build toward Tokyo up to roughly 140 km per week before an ankle injury from stepping into a pothole in heavy rain. He outlines how he's using bike and treadmill cross-training, and why he's keeping Tokyo conservative (around 2:24-2:25), while targeting sub-2:20 this year and longer-term goals that include London, Gold Coast, and Berlin.

Another week closer to the 2026 Northern Traverse, and Eddie and Gary are deep in the trenches of training, some days fun times, some days sad times, all of it inching them forward. Listeners are in the thick of their own big‑race prep too, including one brave soul wondering whether you can smash a road marathon and then step up to an ultra. Winter bugs are everywhere as well, and everyone seems to be sniffling through their long runs. When should you ease off, and when is it fine to crack on? Eddie and Gary share what's worked for them.Thanks to Precision Fuel & Hydration for supporting our February competition. Head over to instagram for all the deets.

Welcome to “The Future of Running” podcast on Head Start presented by Brooksee and hosted by Phil Dumontet.In this episode, Phil sits down with Hugh Brasher, CEO of London Marathon Events — the organization behind the TCS London Marathon, the UK's biggest street party and the largest single-day fundraising event in the world. From its origin story in 1979 to its place today as one of the most iconic races on the planet, this is a conversation about belief, responsibility, and stewarding something bigger than a start line.What is running's true superpower? How do you deliver an individual, deeply personal experience at massive global scale? And what does it mean to lead a race that belongs not just to runners, but to a city, a country, and a global community? Hugh shares how London balances elite excellence with grassroots inclusivity — and why mental barriers, not physical ones, are often the hardest to break.We also look ahead. Where will the TCS London Marathon be in 2030? In 50 years? As technology advances, will race day become more digital — or more human? A thoughtful conversation on legacy, belief, and what it takes to steward one of the world's most important endurance events into its next era.Send a text

Like finishing a marathon, successfully completing a Rubik's Cube is something that even those who have never done it understand that it's challenging, unique and worth celebrating. And the few who have done it enjoy a special type of camaraderie.To most minds, the similarities between the cube and the marathon stop there. But for this week's guest, Canadian Running's cover athlete, George Scholey, there's much more to the equation. At just 23, Scholey has already broken multiple Rubik's Cube world records, including for the most cubes solved in 24 hours. In recent years, he's begun a new pursuit: marathon running. It wasn't long before his two passions converged–in his hometown at the London Marathon, where he broke yet another record, solving 520 cubes over the course of the marathon (an average of more than 12 cubes per kilometre).On this week's episode, George joins us from his new home base in Canada, where he's working on the business of cubing as a brand manager at Rubik's global headquarters in Toronto. We talk about the parallels between cubing and training, how he fits the pieces of his full-time work and passion project together, and what the world's most popular puzzle might have to offer runners of all ability levels.Subscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcastsFollow George on Social Media @George.ScholeyThanks to this week's sponsor, CanPrevPrime your preparation, power your performance, and prioritize your post-run recovery with CanPrev.

Today's guest is in the midst of an extraordinary adventure: the Run Around Great Britain challenge, a human‑powered loop of the entire coastline. It's part endurance feat and part love letter to the country. We catch up with Megan Boxall 117 days into her journey. She talks us through the mishaps, the coastlines, the kindness of strangers, and the moments that make big adventures feel deeply human. She's well over halfway now, but still so much to explore.Pic Credit - Ross Taylorhttps://www.justgiving.com/page/megan-boxall-run-britain?newPage=trueThanks to Precision Fuel & Hydration for supporting our February competition.

Rodrigo Garcia Gonzalez is the co-founder of the seaweed-based packaging company, Notpla. He and Pierre Paslier started working together in a kitchen while students at the Royal College of Art and Imperial College in 2013 and have since gone on to create a genuinely global brand. Essentially, Notpla aims to replace single-use plastic products – a huge issue with the world producing somewhere in the region of 400 million tonnes of plastic waste annually, and packaging estimated to account for 33 per cent of that. Like many people, Material Matters first came across the company a little under a decade ago when it launched Ooho, an edible bubble made from a seaweed membrane that contained water – or in some instances a rather strong cocktail – and, since then, the company has gone on to win numerous awards, including the inaugural Earthshot Prize in 2022.In this episode we talk about: the mis-use of plastic; Ooho's curious name; using seaweed at the London Marathon; why the material is the perfect replacement for plastic; the historic uses of seaweed – in glass, medicine and even beer; making paper and spoons from the material; flying water balloons over Hyde Park; how Notpla started as a side project; the importance of crowd funding to its beginnings; working from a kitchen table and being ‘parasites' of Imperial College; scaling up; meeting resistance from the plastic industry; concerns over bio-plastics; the effect Covid had on the company; and not wanting to be an architect.Support the show

Considered the greatest Traitor ever to do it, Harry Clark won the show when he was only 22. However, as he explains to Rick and Ben, life wasn't going to plan and it's only now that he can look back on that time and reflect. Taking on the London Marathon to raise money for the Duke of Edinburgh' Awards, Harry talks about his love/hate relationship with running, his desire to push himself, discovering a sense of self, his faith and much more.

Episode 220 of The Adventure Podcast features endurance athlete and author, Peter Wright. Peter has undertaken some of the world's most challenging endurance events - completing the Marathon des Sables, the Jungle Ultra, the Western States 100, the Cape Wrath Ultra and rowing the Atlantic. But what's fascinating about Peter is that on the face of it, he's a pretty normal bloke with a full-time career, who made a series of seemingly ordinary decisions. In this episode, Matt speaks with Peter about how a comfortable, “mildly active” life gradually evolved into a decade of endurance challenges. He shares honest stories of failure, imposter syndrome, DNFs, and the mindset shifts that helped him keep going when quitting felt easier. They discuss balancing adventure with family life and a full-time career, the reality of preparing for a two-year project, and the emotional highs and lows of life at sea. At its core, this episode explores motivation, ageing, and fear of regret. And why adventure isn't necessarily about talent, but about turning up and committing to the long game.For extra insights from the worlds of adventure, exploration and the natural world, you can find The Adventure Podcast+ community on Substack.

This week on RUNWITHALLI LIVE, I'm joined by David Machin, Lead Community Organizer for Health Poverty Action, the charity I'm fundraising for as I prepare to run the 2026 London Marathon.I'll be honest: there were things I learned in this conversation that I didn't even know before diving into the topics David breaks down in this episode. It was eye-opening. I believe it will be for you, too.We discuss the reality of health poverty and why it's not a quick fix. This conversation goes beyond temporary solutions or ultra-processed “quick” foods. It's about long-term infrastructure funding, access to healthier food options, and healthcare systems that sustainably serve communities.David also explains why unrestricted funding is so critical. When funds aren't tightly restricted, organizations have the flexibility to respond where needs are greatest. Something that's especially urgent right now as government aid is being cut in ways we haven't seen before, creating widening funding gaps across global health systems.In this episode, we explore:The difference between health and health equity, and why that distinction mattersHow systemic barriers, the climate crisis, and political decisions directly impact access to careWhy NGOs are under increasing pressure, and how resilience means continuing the work even when it feels like getting punched in the faceWhy advocacy and holding decision-makers accountable for healthcare and funding cuts are JUST as important as fundraisingThe hard truth is this: things may get worse before they get better. Health poverty is systemic and deeply rooted, leading to preventable illness, disease, and loss of life in communities with inaccessible health resources.And yet what left me hopeful is that Health Poverty Action is doing the work anyway. They're raising funds, building awareness, supporting community-led solutions, and continuing to show up despite immense challenges. Every single dollar goes a long way, but there is still meaningful work ahead!This episode is a reminder that endurance athletes, and humans in general, can use their voices, platforms, and miles to help bridge gaps, elevate conversations, and push for change.A Small Ask With Big ImpactIf you're able to donate, please know this: unrestricted funds give organizations the flexibility to act where the need is greatest. With government aid being cut and funding gaps growing, even small contributions matter more than ever. If donating isn't possible right now, sharing this episode helps amplify awareness. And that matters, too. Donate here: https://2026tcslondonmarathon.enthuse.com/pf/allison-felsenthalWhether you're an endurance athlete, new to running, or just curious, I hope this episode inspires you, deepens your understanding of why we run, and shows how our footsteps can create real impact by supporting charities and communities that need it most.Connect with Health Poverty Action:WebsiteLinkedInInstagramEmailIf you enjoyed this episode, head to Apple Podcasts and tap the +Follow button to stay in the loop.

On this weeks episode of One For The Road I am joined by Steve Smith. Steve was born in Barking, Essex, and grew up in the 80s and 90s on a typical UK housing estate, where childhood meant knocking on other kids' doors, building bike ramps and playing outside until it got dark. His parents loved a drink, but it was always harmless, social fun — garden parties, Christmas and New Year gatherings, with people often coming and going until the early hours. Alcohol was always present, yet never to a point where it was questioned, and from an early age Steve came to associate alcohol with fun. Inspired by the film Cocktail, Steve became a flair bartender and, throughout the 1990s, worked in the West End of London during a time when bartending carried a distinctly rock 'n' roll lifestyle — long nights, heavy drinking and early starts were simply part of the culture. In 2000, he became World Flair Bartending Champion. After losing his mum to ovarian cancer, Steve ran the London Marathon in 2009 for Macmillan Cancer Support, which sparked a long-term love of endurance sport. For many years, that sat alongside a belief that alcohol wasn't an issue — often using marathons as proof of that. In 2020, while training for his first Ironman, Steve decided to take a break from alcohol. The break stuck. Since then, he has completed five full-distance Ironman races and multiple ultramarathons, including the Winter Downs 200 — a non-stop 200-mile race across southern England in December.Going alcohol-free didn't change who Steve was — it changed what he believed was possible.insta: @Steve Smithweb:www.soberilliant.comlinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-smith-5917519a/If you want to connect with me via Instagram, you can find me on the instahandle @Soberdave https://www.instagram.com/soberdave/or via my website https://davidwilsoncoaching.com/Provided below are links for services offering additional help and advice.www.drinkaware.co.uk/advice/alcohol-support-serviceshttps://nacoa.org.uk/Show producer- Daniella Attanasio-MartinezInstagram - @TheDaniellaMartinezhttps://www.instagram.com/thedaniellamartinez/www.instagram.com/grownuphustle Hosted on Acast.

Jade Barrett has just pulled off something no one else has ever managed, completing the entire Centurion Running calendar in a single year. Every. Single. Event. And because that apparently wasn't quite enough, she also squeezed in the Arc of Attrition for good measure!

Rich Morrell and Lucy Jones sit down to unpack an absolutely wild weekend of athletics, starting with the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix, where records were falling left, right, and centre.They get into Josh Hoy's ridiculous indoor 800m world record, how it actually played out, and why it felt inevitable once the pace wound up. There's also plenty of love for Hobbs Kessler, whose calm, metronomic run to a 2000m world record had everyone watching in disbelief. Add in Jake Wightman breaking the British indoor record, and it's a reminder of just how deep and competitive middle-distance running is right now.On the women's side, the chat turns to a stacked 3000m, with standout runs from Elle St. Pierre and Linden Hall, plus a wider look at the young athletes starting to mix it with the established names. Rich and Lucy also talk through why athletes like Izzy Boffey and Ellie Baker are becoming serious players in the women's 800m.To wrap things up, attention shifts to the London Marathon, with a proper look at the loaded elite fields and why the hype is more than justified this year. With records being broken, careers taking off, and races delivering every weekend, this episode captures why track and field is in such a good place right now.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-running-pod-trackstaa/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Ingrid Kristiansen hade vid en tidpunkt världsrekorden på 5000m, 10 000m och maraton, samtidigt! Hon har vunnit Chicago Marathon, London Marathon, New York Marathon. Vunnit VM på 10 000m, VM i terräng löpning och VM i landsvägslöpning. Den meritlistan gör henne till en av de allra främsta någonsin och någon som tillsammans med Grete Waitz startade det norska löparundret. Ingrid var en väldigt duktig löpare tidigt i sin karriär, men inte på ett sätt där hon utmanade den absoluta världseliten. Detta vände efter att sonen Gaute kom till världen 1983. Ingrids karriär tar fart på allvar och hon slår flertalet världsrekord och vinner lopp på de stora scenerna runt om i världen. I veckans avsnitt tittar vi närmare på graviditet och elitlöpning. I Ingrids fall var det unikt att en kvinna på den tiden kunde komma tillbaka, dessutom bättre än någonsin, efter att ha fött barn. Ingrid berättar om hur förbundet inte trodde att det var möjligt, hur hon fick anpassa träningen och hur vägen tillbaka till den absoluta världstoppen såg ut. Hon berättar också om hur hon upplevde att kroppen förändrades Vi får också höra kortare historier från några svenska elitlöpare som blivit mammor - Johanna Bäcklund, Lisa Havell, Sara Trané, Moa Gustafsson och Louise Wiker.  Manne fortsätter sitt LT-fokus och har börjat se vinster i träningen. Planen är snart färdig för att prestera på topp i Hannover!  John har haft sin bästa vecka sedan 2022 och gläds åt en kropp som faktiskt svarar när farten skruvas upp.  Veckans Sponsorer:  Nomio - Intervju med Filip Larsen om fördelarna med att bruka Nomio över tid.

"I didn't think running was for someone like me" This week on The Runna Podcast, Ben and Anya speak to journalist, bestselling author, and mental health advocate, Bryony Gordon.Bryony didn't grow up sporty - in fact, exercise often felt like punishment. But during some of the hardest moments of her life, while battling mental illness and alcoholism, she turned to running out of desperation - and everything changed.And after a chance conversation with the Princess of Wales, Bryony found herself starting a marathon training plan for the London Marathon. She later made headlines by running it in her underwear, challenging body stigma and proving that running really is for everyone.In this honest and inspiring episode, we talk about running for mental health, building body confidence, and why you don't need to be a certain speed or size to call yourself a runner.Highlights Include:

This is a milestone episode of Get Out of Wrap – and a meaningful one.For episode 250, I'm joined by Niki Ignatiou and Julia Rosell Jackson from ActionAid, an international charity working alongside women, girls and communities to tackle injustice at its roots.In this conversation we explore:How ActionAid works differently by putting communities in the leadWhy adolescent girls are often invisible – and how they're changing thatReal examples of girls influencing policy, education and social normsThe role of women's movements in humanitarian crises and conflictWhy lasting change doesn't come from systems imposed on peopleThis episode is about justice, dignity, resilience – and listening to the people closest to the problem.If you care about leadership, humanity and impact, this one's worth your time.You can support Action Aid at https://www.actionaid.org.uk/get-involvedYou can also donate for my London Marathon run raising money for Action Aid at https://www.justgiving.com/page/runwithmart?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL

In this episode of the Fundraising Everywhere podcast, host Simon Scriver sits down with Georgia Aker, Head of Events at Spinal Research and Fundraising Everywhere member, to unpack one of the most impressive events fundraising growth stories we've heard. When Georgia joined Spinal Research post-COVID, the charity was bringing in around £100,000 annually from events. Fast forward to 2025, and they've raised £630,000—a 6x increase in just a few years. But here's the twist: they achieved this growth while losing over half their London Marathon places (from 170 down to 80) due to ballot changes. In this conversation, Georgia shares: - How they used "zero-risk" event partnerships to expand their portfolio without upfront costs - The game-changing impact of introducing first fundraising targets (which added £100K in year two alone) - Their approach to converting cold event participants into long-term supporters - Practical tips on Meta advertising, relationship building, and managing a lean events team - How they're making events more accessible across all budgets and fitness levels Want to dive deeper into events fundraising strategies?

Trigger warning: This episode includes discussion of a current pregnancy. Please take care while listening.SummaryIn this episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, we chat with Becca about pregnancy, miscarriage, and the emotional fallout that so often follows but rarely gets spoken about properly. Becca shares her experience of early pregnancy, the confusion and shock of miscarriage, and how deeply it impacted her mental health - alongside the constant background hum of anxiety that can come with pregnancy after loss.She also talks about running the London Marathon for TWGGE (yes, an actual marathon), and how training became both a physical challenge and an emotional outlet during a time when everything else felt uncertain. Becca reflects on the language used in medical settings, the miscommunication that can leave people feeling dismissed or unheard, and why self-advocacy is so crucial when navigating healthcare after baby loss.Together, we unpack the cultural taboos that still surround miscarriage and baby loss, why silence helps no one, and how finding the right support - whether through community, shared stories, or simply being believed - can make all the difference. This episode is about breaking the rules of polite conversation, pushing for better care, and reminding anyone walking this path that they are not alone.At the time of release, we're so glad to share that Becca brought her baby home safely.We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation. We're all about bringing people together who are going through the tough stuff — baby loss, infertility, and everything in between — and making sure no one has to face it alone. Our community is full of honesty, compassion, and real talk, offering support, understanding, and hope when it's needed most.

Anthony's running journey began back in 2007 while he was working in IT. Unhappy with his weight, he laced up for a change, and just two months later he was on the start line of his first 10K. By 2009 he'd run his first marathon, and by 2011 he was fully immersed in the world of ultrarunning.Years of racing and experimenting with his own fuelling strategies sparked a deeper interest in sports nutrition. Anthony went on to earn an Advanced Diploma in Nutrition and Weight Management, followed by a Nutrition Specialist Diploma. Combining his personal transformation with his growing expertise, he founded XMiles, a brand dedicated to helping endurance athletes fuel smarter and perform at their best.Thanks Harrier Trail Running for sponsoring this weeks interview.Thanks to Fenix Light UK, Voom & Altra 13 Valleys for supporting our January competitions.

This week on One For The Road I am joined by Kate Renninson. Kate's story is a powerful reminder that recovery doesn't always begin with rock bottom — sometimes, it begins with clarity.Growing up in a dysfunctional household, Kate experienced emotional harm from an early age. Raised by a narcissistic mother who took a dislike to her, she lived in a home marked by betrayal and instability, including her mother's affair with her father's brother. This environment shaped Kate's sense of self and laid the groundwork for patterns she would carry into adulthood.Kate began drinking at around 14 years old, and alcohol quickly became a coping mechanism. For over a decade, drinking played a central role in her life, leading to many difficult and unsafe situations, frequent blackouts, and a growing disconnection from herself. When she became a mother, her drinking temporarily improved, but over time it crept back in through socially accepted “mummy wine” culture and nights out — which she often took much further than those around her.There was no dramatic rock bottom, although there were many moments that could have been. Instead, change came quietly but powerfully. At 50 years old, just six weeks after her birthday, Kate read a book that completely shifted her understanding of alcohol. Armed with new knowledge, she made the decision to quit drinking altogether in 2021 — and her life has continued to expand ever since.Now four years sober, Kate's journey is defined by growth, courage, and joy. In 2023, having only been able to run 5K at the start of the year, she followed a training plan and went on to run the London Marathon — every single mile. She has travelled to Vietnam and Uganda, and even took a solo trip to Thailand to attend the Sober Awkward retreat, something she never would have imagined during her drinking years.Kate has since created her Detoxikated Instagram page, where she speaks openly about sobriety and helps change the perception of what a sober life can look like. She is deeply passionate about showing others that sobriety isn't about restriction or loss — it's about freedom, possibility, and becoming who you were always meant to be. Her story shows that it's never too late to change, and that choosing sobriety can open doors far beyond anything alcohol ever promised.https://www.instagram.com/detoxikated/If you want to connect with me via Instagram, you can find me on the instahandle @Soberdave https://www.instagram.com/soberdave/or via my website https://davidwilsoncoaching.com/Provided below are links for services offering additional help and advice.www.drinkaware.co.uk/advice/alcohol-support-serviceshttps://nacoa.org.uk/Show producer- Daniella Attanasio-MartinezInstagram - @TheDaniellaMartinezhttps://www.instagram.com/thedaniellamartinez/www.instagram.com/grownuphustle Hosted on Acast.

Back in December 2025, Libby Clark stepped up to the start line of the Centurion Winter Downs 200, a 200‑mile Ultra Marathon. Only nine women stood on that start line. Nine! And Libby wasn't just there to take part… she was there to race!Seventy‑five hours, sixteen minutes, and twenty‑seven seconds later, she crossed that finish line to claim a joint second place finish with Jemma Lyons. Today, we get to dive into that journey, the highs, the lows, the hallucinations, the juggle, and the glory.
