In this special episode, you’ll hear all about Rick’s nerves and preparations as he lines up for his first marathon in nine years. Sarah shares her top tips for enjoying the marathon experience, while Andy weighs in on what Rick could realistically achieve - and how to execute the race effectively.
Plus, Rick takes on a quickfire quiz while tackling the Wahoo KICKR Run treadmill challenge before Rick and Andy catch up with Mark ahead of the London Marathon, where he’s racing as part of Puma’s Project3 with a goal of breaking 2:50.
