Welcome to a very real, slightly unhinged debrief from the Surf Coast Trail Marathon — where fitness meets dysfunction and high-vis Team Veteran shirts try to outshine deep sand and cramping quads. Recorded on the move with DJI mics (and some very questionable mic technique), this episode captures Joe, Chris, and Burso unpacking the pain, pride, and hilarity of trail running in Torquay.What does it take to run a trail marathon on zero prep?How do you survive when your legs lock up halfway through the course? And what happens when your support crew keeps popping out of bushes like budget wildlife photographers?Joe kicks things off with a solid dose of humility — recovering from the flu, aiming for sub-2 hours, and ending up somewhere in the 2:15 range with calf cramps from the first hill. He shares how practicing gratitude kept him going when breathing felt impossible and feet kept finding puddles. His run started on the beach, ended in pain, and included two surprise ambushes by Burso and Fitzy hiding in the shrubbery like amateur trail trolls.Meanwhile, Chris starts his day by accidentally salting his Weet-Bix, easing into the second leg of the race after a high-five handover, and immediately running into deep sand and a monster hill. The two teammates joke about their “very average” performance but somehow still manage a third-place finish — in a field of six, but who's counting?Highlights & Laughs:Bush-Banter Ambushes: Burso and Fitzy pop out from behind bushes mid-race, leading to Joe swearing, forgetting questions, and nearly throwing the mic in a cramp-fueled rage.Socks, Sponsors & Silence: Asked live mid-run about sponsors, Joe blanked entirely. “His brain stopped,” Burso notes. “All of the above,” Joe replies.Post-Race Pub Chat: The lads recap over beers at Four Pines in Torquay, where even the winner of the marathon casually mentions he's gunning for a 2:30 at the Gold Coast — on a deload week.Podium Ditching: Despite coming third, the boys skip the ceremony to eat chips and get home to stretch and sulk.Parkrun Shade: The friendly rivalry continues as Chris edges Joe in both trail and Parkrun times, though Joe claims moral victory for showing up sick.Future Fun:Spartan races in Geelong? Stadium stomps? Highlander trail events? Burso's working on it.Puffing Billy run in September? Maybe. If Blue doesn't explode another hammy first.

Hey there, and welcome to the weMove podcast!This week's episode is one for the tennis fans—and for anyone inspired to bring people together and build a thriving community. I'm in conversation with Prince Boucher, the founder of Mission Athletic Club in San Francisco. To me, this is a masterclass in creating a social sporting community that's organized, respectful, and uniquely individual.Whether you're passionate about tennis or dreaming of starting something in the racquet sports space, this episode is a must-listen. Prince and Mission Athletic Club have built something truly special, rooted in the fundamentals—like access to great free court infrastructure—but elevated by the way the community has been empowered to grow and shape the club.We dive into all things tennis, San Francisco, and the city's changing dynamics, including the jaw-dropping reality of what $100,000 means for the poverty line. From there, we explore the innovative way the club is run, the tech platform that keeps it all connected, and the incredible scale of this community, with games happening every day across the city.For our UK listeners, think ParkRun—except for tennis. It's that level of organization, but with a fresh, vibrant twist that only tennis can bring.I absolutely loved this conversation with Prince—thank you for your time and for sharing your journey with Mission. Wishing you continued success!As always, from Chris and me—peace ✌️.https://www.missionathletic.club/https://www.instagram.com/themissionathleticclub

That means we might be right, we might be wrong, but we'll always be honest (and hairy!).We started with a game theory analysis on how we think this year's Western States 100 will play out. This is the type of conversation that athletes have before every race, but they usually wouldn't play it out in public. We can check our work in 2 weeks!And then we broke down tons of great questions!

Visuals: https://getbehindthebillboard.com/episode-90-tim-jonesPodcast episode #90 is the first of our Manchester special and features the charming and uber-talented Tim Jones. Tim has an incredible track record when it comes to OOH, both from his time at BBC Creative and more recently at Meanwhile, the agency he set up with long term creative partner James Cross and Al Marchant.Meanwhile have enjoyed great success since launch in 2022, thanks not just to their creative work, but savvy association with Bez of the Happy Mondays, himself an icon of the North West. It's no surprise Meanwhile were Campaign's Start Up Agency of 2023.We discussed Tim's extensive OOH portfolio, including the 7m tapestry for the BBC World Cup in Russia which formed the centre pice of the History Will Be Made campaign and was meant to have an additional segment, allowing for the next bit of history. Tim told us how he was prepping the new piece to incorporate Harry Kane lifting the trophy. Oh Lord. How many years of hurt?! Too much. Anyway, it wasn't meant to be, but a brilliant story about what goes on behind the tapestry.Then there was the Netflix Diamond Heist and how Meanwhile placed a 9-carat diamond onto the side of a billboard.Next Travel Supermarket with a vertical stack of inflatables in a shopping trolley on the side of a building. How will they stay up? What happens if a member of the public throws darts at them? And a million and one other daft questions that have to be answered in order to get creative work to run.On and on the stories went, the Manchester tram that toots the theme tune of Coronation Street, the BAFTA winning work for BBC Tokyo Olympics, the award-winning launch work for Chester Zoo, the iconic Park Run work for Mental health Day.Thank you Tim. It was a total pleasure. We can't wait to see what you and Meanwhile do next.

Bridging gaps. Lumps in throats. It's Volunteers Week in the UK. parkrun hits 11-million registrations. A new participant makes parkrun a 'habit'. Nicola overcame FOMO by going to Riverside parkrun in County Durham and then Newark parkrun. Plus a big Thing for Danny as he went to Stockholm, visiting Judarskogen parkrun and then his 500th different event at Haga parkrun. (And a nice mention for Meon Valley Trail parkrun, Wickham just before that).

Magical birdsong apps, more pontificating, Danny's memory has got rusty, parkrun take shoelaces up a notch, Nicola shows concern for all our funnels backing up and Danny did a bit of history deepdiving after If I Fitzmaurice Park parkrun, I Sitz Park parkrun.

The policy leadership masters sport needs if it is to grow. What can public policy measures do to improve and grow masters rowing? Timestamps 01:00 Public policy for rowing Sophie Harrington is researching recommendations to improve access to womens and girls sport using public policy measures. Her focus on the male/female side opened up masters sport as a new area where sport for life outcomes could work. To grow masters sport requires finding the inhibitors which exist and prevent improvement. Some are structural - how we organise, think and run volunteer sport. 03:00 Growth inhibitors Ways to improve access and people's enthusiasm and interest in masters sport. Constraints include memberships - many clubs are annual fees/dues. Can we offer pay-to-play memberships? Also what about time of day pricing as our rowing equipment lies idle for 22 hours a day. Training at quieter times of day between early mornings and school afternoon sport times. Sweat your assets to get more money in for use when not in demand. 05:15 Coach education Teaching methods used for youth are not as appropriate for older adults. Consider psychology and physiology of athletes so coaches know how to work with a broader range of athletes. Competition structure is a growth inhibitor. We need 3 layers - local / regional and national competitions including those which are participatory not races e.g. Park Run. What is the rowing equivalent? Scrimmages, touring row or visiting another club. Some people take years before trying racing. Competition for those new to competing needs to be organised so you can go to hyper-local events with low friction (no equipment trailer). 08:00 Athletic pathways for masters Ways for those of limited experience to go to races against those whose experience is similar. Age doesn't work as a level playing field when years of experience is considered. Having plural athlete pathways which incorporate fitness rowers with challenges (not necessarily races) that move folks into competition gently. Social inclusion - having a coffee after the workout is important to build friendships and encourages them to stick around as a group. Facilitating sport for life is the outcome goal.

Rahema Mamodo is a mum of three, a passionate runner, and a trailblazer for women in sport. Growing up in Portugal and now based in Birmingham, Rahema discovered running later in life, starting with a simple couch-to-5k program. What began as a personal challenge has blossomed into a mission to inspire women—especially those who look like her—to break barriers, embrace fitness, and find joy in movement. Since her first hesitant steps on a treadmill, Rahema has run over 180 Park Runs in more than 50 locations, completed marathons, and even tackled ultramarathons like Race to the Stones. Along the way, she's used her platform to share her journey, celebrate diversity in sport, and encourage others to believe in themselves. In this episode, Rahema shares how running transformed her life, the lessons she's learned from pushing her limits, and her passion for inspiring her daughters and other women to chase their goals. From practical tips for getting started to her unforgettable experiences at marathons and ultras, Rahema's story is a testament to the power of resilience and self-belief. *** Catch the latest episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast, dropping every Tuesday at 7 am UK time!

If you like running, this week's episode is for you! Kenton sits down to talk to Hem Rana, a remarkable man who 'got the running bug' after going along to a park run six years ago and has since completed multiple ultras. Hem talks to Kenton about his childhood in Nepal and his application to join the Gurkhas. He remains a serving Gurkha today and has lived in the UK for 27 years working for a variety of Gurkha regiments attached to the British Army. Hem used to run only because he had to, for fitness tests and PT sessions, but in 2019 he tried his local park run (5km) and loved it. Out of curiosity, he gradually built up his distances, moved from road to trail, and developed his confidence. He tells Kenton that he has completed several 100 milers, the Winter Spine race (twice!), UTMB and the Bob Graham Round, to name a few. Hem truly believes that everyone is capable of doing what he has done. If you're looking for a bit of inspiration today, look no further!

Lads lads lads! Nicola's off to Japan, so Running Is BS's Stewart Harding fills in. There's Map Men, a brief overview of a couple of weekend things, phallic things, Stewart dared to go to Aberdare parkrun and Danny just couldn't face touring for once.

This week on the RunPod PowerPlaylist, Jenni's joined by none other than Paul Sinton-Hewitt, the legendary founder of parkrun. While Paul prefers the peaceful rhythm of his own breath and the sounds of nature on a run, don't let that fool you - his musical taste is anything but quiet.Expect a playlist that powers you through every step - from banging rock anthems like AC/DC to the soulful harmonies of Simon and Garfunkel. Paul knows that a thumping tune will help you through a painful exercise, and his choices bring just the right mix of energy and emotion to fuel your next session.Plus, he shares some top podcast recommendations for your cool-down walks or post-run inspiration.Press play, lace up, and let's go.

'That' matter. Yarborough Leisure Centre parkrun has a shock. City hypotheticals. Nicola went to Wythenshawe parkrun, didn't throw frogs in bins and wished she'd been sooner. Danny went to Cosmeston Lakes parkrun and needed absolution for a token misdemeanour.

This week on RunPod, Jenni is joined by a true running rockstar – Paul Sinton-Hewitt, the legendary founder of parkrun.What started as a simple run in London's Bushy Park has exploded into a global movement across five continents. Paul's vision has inspired millions to lace up their trainers, not only transforming physical health but also making a powerful impact on mental wellbeing.In this episode, Paul shares the incredible journey of how parkrun grew from a small gathering to a worldwide phenomenon – one that's sparked friendships, marriages, and a love of running for people of all ages and abilities. He opens up about the legacy he's built, the community it's created, and what it feels like to be recognised (and papped!) by fans more often than most celebrities.Plus, he chats about his new book ‘One Small Step' – the definitive account of the run that became a movement.Whether you're a parkrun regular or just love a good running story, this is one not to miss.

So this time, he's less of the vigilante and much more about charity. Then in other news, David tried to surprise his wife on Mothering Sunday with a car full of balloons - but got a load of grief from a grumpy old-timer about his bad parking. Charming! Plus, Joe's been up to more high-quality quipping at a recent Park Run.
