    10K, ParkRun, Track: Done | Chasing the Finish Podcast Episode 40
    Apr 16 2026
    Welcome to the running podcast where three mates from Birmingham swap miles for mics and share more than just blisters! Ben Blakeman, Jake Ramsey & Mike Duffy, a trio at very different points on their running journeys, but all equally skilled at dodging training plans and telling a good story. Lace up, because this episode is basically a three-course meal of running chaos. Mike takes on the Lincoln 10K and lives to tell the tale (just about), Jake heads off to Oaklands ParkRun in search of glory (or at least a respectable time), and Ben discovers muscles he didn’t know existed at his first-ever track session with Centurion RC. Expect questionable pacing decisions, dramatic retellings, and the usual expert-level analysis (read: guessing) from the lads. There may be PBs, there may be pain and there’s definitely a lot of unnecessary chat. Whether you're a seasoned runner or someone who considers walking to the fridge a workout, this one’s for you. Hit play, have a laugh, and remember… it’s all about the vibes, not the times. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    Embankment Miles & Lincoln Goals | Chasing the Finish Podcast Episode 39
    Apr 9 2026
    Welcome to the running podcast where three mates from Birmingham swap miles for mics and share more than just blisters! Ben Blakeman, Jake Ramsey & Mike Duffy, a trio at very different points on their running journeys, but all equally skilled at dodging training plans and telling a good story. Fresh off the pavements of Victoria Embankment, the lads lace up to debrief a parkrun that was equal parts grit, glory and questionable pacing decisions. There’s talk of dodgy GPS watches and heroic sprint finishes that may or may not have started too early.. Ben then rocks the episode by dangling a mysterious running announcement. Finally, all roads lead to Lincoln, where Mike gears up to take on the Lincoln 10K for the third time. Can he finally crack that elusive course PB or will history repeat itself with a strong start, a questionable middle and a character-building finish? The lads weigh in with expert analysis (read: guesses), encouragement and just a hint of doubt. It’s parkrun banter, big teases and bold ambitions - just another week of Chasing The Finish.

    Wolverhampton 10k: A Race Overshadowed by Chaos | Chasing the Finish Podcast Episode 38
    Apr 2 2026
    Welcome to the running podcast where three mates from Birmingham swap miles for mics and share more than just blisters! Ben Blakeman, Jake Ramsey & Mike Duffy, a trio at very different points on their running journeys, but all equally skilled at dodging training plans and telling a good story. In this episode of Chasing The Finish, we take a closer look at the Wolverhampton 10K a race that promised a great day of running but quickly turned into frustration for many involved. We break down the major issues surrounding the event, including the confusion over bib numbers not being posted out, the long queues on the day and the delayed and chaotic start that left runners unsure of what was going on. Was it just poor organisation, or were there bigger problems behind the scenes? And most importantly, how did it impact the runners who showed up ready to race? As always, we give our honest thoughts, share experiences, and ask what needs to change to stop this happening again. Let us know your experience in the comments — did you run it, and how did you find it? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
