It's Thursday and you know what that means....
S18 Ep2 is here and this week we are teaming up with our pals at Protein Rebel to bring you an action packed and incredibly unorganised episode of the What The Fartlek Podcast
We are joined by Fartlek Family OG and all round lovely bloke, Pete Marshall as he looks back at our first Southern foray into the world of Pacing with RunThrough at Olympic Park 5k & 10k this past week alongside our new friends at Thamesmead Running Club
Pete also tells us all about this week's partner, Protein Rebel, for whom he is, of course, an ambassador. What is all the fuss about? Well tune in to hear about it. We also look ahead to the Protein Rebel Running Festival, hosted alongside the lads at Couch 2 Coached landing in July.
Lou Looks Back again - a new segment returns for the second week as Lou has been scouring the web for inspiring stories coming out of Spring Marathon season, and this week tells us all about the incredible feats for 12in12an supporting Anthony Nolan in memory of her late husband. Check out this amazing story - we hope you don’t mind the tag
Jack’s Elite Corner returns - Jack is sporting a sexy new mullet and running incredibly quick times, but the segment isn’t about him, it's about the awesome athletes at the elite end of running.
Then of course its on to Bemma and parkrun chat - this week they joined some familiar fartlek family faces to check out Tamworth Castle Gardens parkrun - is it worth a visit? Well tune in to find out!
And we finish with our first look at Most Miles Wins 2025 - Team Captains Matt and Lou give updates that are as in depth and educational as you would expect, Rob flaps at an accent and we reveal the Week 2 challenge criteria.
