An episode with a working title of "Books, blogs, pods, apps, stats, gadgets, groups, channels, clubs and tips" has been sensibly renamed "What's Next?". In it we cover how we became runners and how it is important to remember that everyone is different in terms of motivation, ability and desired outcomes. What seems to bind us all is that we all seem to get something profound out of putting one foot in front of each other at a rhythm rather faster than walking. We give some great tips but conclude that if your moving and it doesn't hurt: you're winning!

In this episode we talk about just getting out there and doing it. And then doing it again until it becomes a habit and, unbelievably, something you look forward and miss if you don't get a run in! We also look at two of the things that we have discovered which have really inspired us. One is a book called "Born to Run" and one is a phenomenon called "parkrun". We love them both dearly!

For six solid years Andrew badgered Oliver to change his life, body and mind by taking up running. It is fair to say that this was not an easy sell: the usual excuses for an overweight, middle aged, desk-bound male came trotting - or rather sauntering - out: "it's not good for the knees"; "I was rubbish at school"; "I am too fat"; "I get out of breath standing up"; "I will look ridiculous"; "it sounds bloody awful" etc. etc. And yet, some how, eventually, Oliver cracked and enrolled in the miraculous Couch to 5K, graduated, and then carried on past the finishing line. Slowly. Join Andrew and Oliver and Andrew for the start of the process which turned them both from blobby, red-faced cynics into bona fide runners. If they don't get you off your rotund backsides, no-one will.
