Welcome to this week's Shakeout episode which we are now proud to announce is sponsored by Wahoo!

In this week's episode, we are asked for specific advice about running the Berlin marathon, how to deal with sacral stress fractures and advice for running with menopause pain - should you take a break or continue on the Ultra training journey...!

Plus, Paula is all inspired to do the Auckland marathon after we were sent some amazing pics of there and beautiful Queenstown in New Zealand, Thommo is at the great north run but might be a bit squeezed for time to do a Shakeout so it's all eyes on Paula for Kielder! We also welcome Sarah who is new to listening to the pod and asks for advice on fuelling amongst the minefield of nutrition bars, gels and liquids!

On the Wahoo sponsored Honours board we celebrate a special centenary and we also have a very humbling nomination.

We're so excited by our new partnership with Wahoo, the Premier Treadmill specialists because their KICKR RUN will help your indoor running become a crucial training method to help you to achieve your goals outdoor.

Welcome to this week's Shakeout episode! We have a disclaimer to make before you listen because we obviously recorded this before Paula was thwarted in her attempt to fly to Sydney, therefore some of the conversation around the in-person Shakeout run has changed. Please keep an eye on our social pages for up-to-date information and to find out where in the world, Paula is!We also hear from our listeners who ask for advice on what training area to focus on in order to build endurance to turn underlying pace in to a sub-4 marathon pace and whether their limiter is fitness, pacing or fuelling. We also talk about how to ensure breakfast works for you ahead of a race and how to fuel efficiently.

Send us your Honours Board mentions either for someone else you're proud of, or even for yourself - it's ok to congratulate yourself and it's definitely ok for Paula and Thommo to do it!

This week on the Run Club we've got something slightly different for you as we speak to Inspector Liz Warner from West Mercia Police about their new initiative 'Operation Jog On'. 

Running safety is something that matters to all of us in our community so we wanted to bring you an episode where we can find out what is being done to help people run with more confidence and security.

Jog On is a campaign focused on tackling perpetrator behaviour on our streets, which often creates barriers to women running and a survey carried out by the University of Worcester found that 68% of female runners said they had experienced some form of harassing behaviour.

Download now for an insightful and balanced interview with Inspector Liz Warner and do get in touch with your experiences too. You can find more information here: https://www.westmercia.police.uk/police-forces/west-mercia-police/areas/west-mercia/campaigns/campaigns/VAWG/jog-on/
