    Paula's Run Club brings you The Shakeout

    Welcome to a special Shakeout episode where we mix things up a little bit and start with a European Athletics Champs themed Honours Board. There's so much to celebrate from the tournament including Georgia Hunter-Bell in the 1500m and Marathon bronze medallist Abbie Donnelly.. we’ve also put out an alert for a lost mascot teddy!

    There's a reminder that Paula is heading to the Sydney marathon so please let us know if you're there too as we would love to do an audience Shakeout run if you’re around??

    We also hear from our listeners who ask for advice on how to balance running for emotional reasons without putting so much pressure on yourself that you lose the joy, we talk super shoes again - how to find the best ones, plus 5k or 10k training runs and how to fit strength workouts into a busy work schedule. 

    Plus, a debut from possibly our youngest listener who is very proud of his homegrown tomatoes!

    We'd love to hear more from you with your questions, comments and nominations for the Honour's Board and don't forget you can also WATCH and comment on the episode on YouTube.

    We also discuss the marathons and how tricky the course was, definitely some worthy winners in that one and which athlete arrived with the wrong sized shoes?!

    Operation Jog On

    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/

    Running a Mile with World Record holder Josh Kerr

    Fresh from a World record-breaking Mile in London, this week we're honoured to welcome World Champion and Olympic medallist Josh Kerr to the Run Club.

    Paula and Thommo delighted in chatting to Josh straight after his Commonwealth Games Mile success - serendiptious as it was that the race was added back in for Glasgow - they wanted to know how much pressure he felt now he's the record holder and how that converted in to more success.

    We delve a little deeper into his Project 222 and learn a little more about why he never makes things easy for himself, plus, who does he think would win in a hypothetical Mile race with all the record holders on the start line?!Looking into Josh's future, we see marathons but probably not any 5000m races because "no one cares about it"...! Go on, have a listen and then let us know what you think!
