  • Brilliant podcast

    I have been listening to Gone Running for quite some time now - I was so pleased to discover it. The variety of the episodes are great and always insightful. The interview style and production quality is also excellent and significantly better than a lot of the running related podcasts. Enjoyed the recent collab with Run Through Trails - even signed up for Morzine-Avoriaz! Keep up the great work and thank you for a brilliant podcast!
