Welcome to Week Seven of our "Here Comes The Run" series where we sit down with CBeebies presenter Evie Pickerill.

Evie ran her first London Marathon this year in her role as a Children with Cancer Ambassador and she's got a secret... she was a swimmer, not a runner, so we find out if the experience has made her change lanes.

We talk about jeffing, how she got through those long - sometimes wet - runs and how to fit training around her busy job at the BBC. Evie also tells us about how when she needed to dig deep in the hard marathon moments, she took solace in remembering why she was doing it in the first place, to raise awareness for children who are battling with cancer.

There's school sports day chat and also a Banksy quote that Thommo still can't quite remember!

It's Week 6 of our "Here Comes The Run" series and this episode is a very special and emotional one.

Paula and Thommo talk to the running inspiration Jordan Adams who is one half of The FTD Brothers - the one that carries a fridge around his marathons!

Jordan and his brother Cian run in memory of their mum who was diagnosed with ‘Early-Onset’ Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) before she sadly passed away on 14th March 2016 at the age of 52.

However, their story doesn't end there, and Jordan tells us how when he and his brother were also diagnosed with this disease, Jordan decided to use the power of knowing what lies ahead to take action in the form of raising awareness as a community speaker and fundraising through his running - he's done marathons, ultras and even attempted 982 laps of an athletics track in the depths of winter! We learn about Jordan's incredible story and how he sacrificed his career as an amateur footballer and painting & decorating to advocate for FTD.

If you're looking for running inspiration either because you've reached the 40 milestone, are perimenopausal or because you also quite fancy running up volcanoes then don't miss this episode with Jo & Gav Pavey.

We talk to five-time Olympian Jo about being an inspiration to many after winning the 10,000m gold medal at the European Championships in Zürich, just ten months after giving birth to her second child becoming the oldest female European champion in history at the age of 40 years and 325 days.

We dig into the world of Gav, Jo's husband and long-term coach who has been instrumental in many of Jo's achievements and who now has a successful training squad of youngsters including cross country champion Innes Fitzgerald.

We dare you to not put on your running shoes after listening to this legendary pair!

Welcome to Week Four of our "Here Comes The Run" series.

We've been inundated with your incredible marathon stories so we thought we'd get some of you lovely lot on for another episode to share the joy.. and pain! 

This week we hear from Gab Stone - Harry Judd's training partner - as he tells us his story of having the perfect build up and how it all went wrong on the day, what a readiness score is and how to bounce back from a tough race - in this case, Gab is doing 30 marathons in 30 days!

We also speak to Stacy who ran her first London Marathon and says she's never experienced anything like it. Maybe that's the free steak talking though.

PLUS, David who ran it for his second time but encountered an injury tells us that costume spotting got him to the finish line!

We've got the minute challenge and it's Thommo this week so LISTEN to find out what his favourite training session is and hopefully he can inspire you too. 

We are going to keep that marathon theme going over the next few weeks. We want to hear your stories. Send us a video telling us about your marathon journey and we will feature it in the podcast and on socials and the YouTube Channel.

We're on the road in this episode of Here Comes the Run as Paula and Thommo travel to Padstow to meet Michelin-starred chef and dedicated athlete Paul Ainsworth.

After a scenic 8K run along the Camel Trail, the team heads into the kitchen at Number Six where Paul demonstrates how to prepare "Gypsy Eggs," a perfect high-protein post-run recovery dish featuring spicy chorizo, cannellini beans, and selenium-enriched super eggs.

Paul shares his personal journey from professional chef to sub-four-hour marathon runner and aspiring Iron Man, offering unique insights into how he balances a high-pressure career and family life with intense athletic training.

The discussion delves into the intersection of culinary excellence and sport, highlighting Paul's "extra mile" philosophy in both the kitchen and his training.

From essential kitchen kit like high-quality wooden chopping boards to his specific race-day routines—including traveling with his own toaster—Paul provides a wealth of practical tips for listeners and viewers.
