Average runners with above average enthusiasm! We're Becky and Briony, and between us we're training for four marathons, a load of halves (Becky ran 10 in 10 weeks for charity!) and an ultra, while juggling 5 kids between us. Join us on our journey to the London Marathon start line and beyond!
Running for us is about SO MUCH MORE than physical health - in fact, it's mostly about mental health and how it makes us feel.
There are so many super polished and professional podcasts from super speedy runners, experts and athletes that we LOVE for inspiration - but sometimes we just want to hear from normal people, like us, and chat about the sport we love so much with people we can relate to. That's why we're here!
No matter how fast and furious or slow and steady you are, whether you're just starting out or a full blown running geek, regardless of your pace, distance, race and other goals... you can sit [/run!] with us!

Join us as we give our full and frank, real and raw debrief of our experiences of London Marathon 2025! (Episode title from one of the funniest signs we spotted!)
*PLEASE NOTE* we made a mistake chatting and Becky said she finished in 5:51... she actually finished an hour earlier than that in 4:51! Our chip times were - Becky: 4:51:43, Briony: 4:24:48 and we both ran 26.7ish miles.
We cover EVERYTHING - how we felt, all the feels, crossing the finish line, what went right and wrong, highs and lows, chafing in weird and wonderful places, strava vs chip times, water station carnage, learnings and points we'll note for the future...
But honestly guys, there are NO WORDS for the magic and electricity of those London crowds. London, you really came through.
A marathon neither of us will ever forget!
A massive congratulations to everyone who ran at the weekend, be it London or Manchester - WELL DONE! It was tough out there.
