Think you can't run a 100 mile ultra? Well the truth is....you absolutely can! Especially if you read this awesome new book by Jen Benson. This lunch we had such a lovely chat to Jen about 'The Path We Run', which charts the ups and downs of her 100 mile journey, with advice and inspiration along the way from ultra running greats and experts like Courtney Dauwalter, Jasmin Paris, Beth Pascall, Lucy Bartholemew and more.It's a great read, wonderfully written with some fascinating insights. For example, did you know, Courtney DNFed her first 100 miler? There are lots of great tips and bits of advice in our chat, but even more in the book, so pop it on your Christmas list NOW! Thanks for the lovely chat again Jen, it's always really great to connect with you...and maybe I'll do a 100 miler one day.......Originally on YouTube here https://youtube.com/live/FtjZvT_7C3cBuy The Path We Runhttps://amzn.to/4fjbby1Buy more of Jen and Sim's books!https://amzn.to/4dSmhc0Live broadcast and podcast sponsors are Naak Sports Nutrition!

Yikes everybody, so I've somehow managed to book an actual TV celeb for today's live chat at 2pm - it's Patrick Grant, award-winning designer and one of the judges from The Great British Sewing Bee! He has a sustainable, plastic-free clothing company called Community Clothing, all made at a factory in Blackburn with local workers, models and photographers. They have a small range of sportswear ideal for summer running - namely t-shirts, vests, shorts and hoodies. They aren't highly technical garments like SOAR, but they are much lower in price! Like £35 for a t-shirt, normal prices. So this is going to be a super interesting chat.Originally on YouTube here https://youtube.com/live/Whw9HC-FoXoPatrick's book Less: Stop Buying So Much Rubbish: How Having Fewer, Better Things Can Make Us Happier https://amzn.to/46ASDG2Community Clothing website (apparently the sports socks are fab!
