S5 - E8: Going Barefoot into the Beyond with Ben Weeks (@thebarefootdaddy) - We embrace something new today for the show, welcoming THE barefoot daddy to the podcast. This will certainly be an informative and enlightening chat with a man who is so chill, so relaxed and just an absolute pleasure to both talk and listen to. If you come in with no idea about barefoot running, you are sure to go away with a little bit of interest and certainly a better understanding of the vibes that it can provide to those who partake.

Steve runs through the usual shout outs, appreciations and love to the community, while touching on his own week in running.

So join me in welcoming one of my lonest running followers to the show, as we spotlight the man who radiates positivity and brings a contagious smile to the table, all the way from Poland...Matt Sutcliffe, otherwise known as matt.is.running!

S5 - E6: The Running Fran is a Highland Ultra Fan (@therunningfran_) - In a change to the normal direction we head for our guests, being south, we’re staying firmly in the Highlands this week…which was the main reason we broke new ground for the show and committed to an in person interview, hitting up a local Starbucks and adding a bit of atmosphere to the background!

Although it’s familiar territory for myself, this week's guest is someone I hadn’t had the pleasure of meeting in person, until now, and what a delight she was. Topic wise it was sadly a return to the dreaded ultra marathon distance but I didn’t mind hearing all about it, especially seeing the smile talking about it brought to this lovely ladies face.

We talk about ultras, marathons and bringing the community together with a fabulous running group!!
