  • Great to listen to on the run

    I’ve been trying to find a suitable podcast that talks you through a run as you’re running it. This is perfect - love the phased training ones as well! The interviews are really well delivered and relevant. We want to hear how ‘human’ the celebs are!!! Great work and I’ll continue to listen.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Extra Mile: Running in a ZOMBIE apocalypse?!
Q: What tip would you give to a first timer to make sure they survive?
Watch players who have played before and run if they start running, since they may know something a newcomer does not.
The Extra Mile: Running in a ZOMBIE apocalypse?!
Q: What is it?
Zombies is a running and chasing game in which survivors collect health at designated zones while evading zombies, who can infect them by tagging or Bluetooth.
Dr Vanessa Moulton: Train your brain how to overcome!
Q: How can you train yourself to overrule your brain and make race nerves positive?
She recommends identifying the threat behind the nerves, questioning whether the perceived pressure is realistic, regulating the nervous system with movement and breathing, and reframing the feeling as excitement.
Dr Vanessa Moulton: Train your brain how to overcome!
Q: Is confidence something that can be helped with psychology?
Moulton says confidence is built through doing the activity, not simply talking about it. Starting small and gradually increasing exposure gives the brain evidence of capability and builds self-efficacy.
The Extra Mile: Running marathons aged 75 with myeloma
Q: What is the one thing you wish every woman knew about perimenopause?
Naomi Potter says perimenopause involves constant change and there are no fixed rules about what may start or stop, but there is something people can do whatever their situation.
