  • Way too many ads

    I was really excited to find this podcast, but gave up after 14 minutes when I got tired of listening to ads. Will try again in a few months to see if they change the format.

  • Glad your back

    So glad you have decided to keep the podcast going beyond the marathon, it kept me company while I prepared for a 24hr event (endure24) which I managed 13 laps 65 miles. Keep up the good work.
