About this listen

 Paula Radcliffe and Chris 'Thommo' Thompson are back with their Road to London Marathon - join our club as we help you to navigate your journey to one of the greatest marathons in the world. Paula Radcliffe is regarded as one of the greatest female distance runners of our generation. The multiple medal winner and world record holder - including the women’s marathon record for 17 years - has continued her passion for running since retiring in 2015. Chris Thompson is one of the UK's most prolific distance runners for over 25 years. Every Monday, we will bring 45 mins of high energy entertainment with a community spirit. An inclusive, unintimidating experience where people will learn from each other, helping understand quirks and developing coping mechanisms for all levels. On a Thursday we have The Shakeout where we answer audience questions. Each week Paula and Chris will discuss many different aspects of running from nutrition to hydration from motivation to training tips, all based around a running community. They will address the anxieties and uncertainties we all feel surrounding running. Paula and Chris will bring you some of the biggest names that also want to be part of their running community. Regular guests like Steve Peters, Harry Judd and Jill Scott will also be joined by some of the stars from sport and entertainment who will tell you why they run and what motivates them whether it be for fun, health or mental wellbeing.Momentum Broadcast Hygiene & Healthy Living Running & Jogging Self-Help Success

    Strength & conditioning Tips, McFly's Harry Judd and running with Rum
    Jan 26 2026
    Strength and conditioning expert Rich Blagrove joins us this week with tips on how to build those exercises into your week. He discusses the importance of S&C sessions in your marathon training with some invaluable advice about HOW to do it and WHEN to do it! Meanwhile, Thommo has tweaked his calf but is relieved to discover that Paula is back having survived the Bermuda triangle.. it might be something to do with all those RUM stops in her 10k run (photo evidence on the YouTube episode!). We also catch up with McFly's Harry Judd and his training partner Gab Stone after their mega training session by our resident coach Thommo. Good reviews all round (thankfully). PLUS, Wild Nutrition are giving Paula’s Run Club listeners an exclusive 50% off for three months and a free personal consultation with a nutritional therapist.

    Paula's Run Club:The Shakeout Episode 24
    Jan 22 2026
    Our build up to the London Marathon continues with more of your questions in the weekly Shakeout. This week the topics include advice on positioning yourself within a marathon and mental strategies for running in a pack. Paula and Thommo chat about how to train in the heat, especially if you're wanting to train outside rather than on a treadmill. There's information about how to taper your distance training as you get closer to the big event. And a query about how to deal with long term rest due to injury - what can you do instead? You can get in touch with us with a question or a comment or a nomination for the Honours Board by email or WhatsApp. Email: paulasrunclub@momentumbroadcast.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 7564 747914 Instagram: @paulasrunclub Learn more about your ad choices.

    Our road to London continues with some brilliant advice from Georgie Bruinvels who's an expert in sports physiology. She's got plenty of tips on nutrition, supplements, boosting our immune systems and how to know we're doing the right things. There's also a good discussion about using creatine. She talks to Paula and Thommo about gut health and probiotics and there's a discussion about pelvic floor exercises for women and men...something new for Thommo! And then there's HRV. Heart Rate Variability - what is it and what does it mean? We welcome to the podcast BBC Newsreader Sophie Raworth to talk about her preparation for London - she'll be logging her journey with us for the next 3 months. Her pedigree is top notch having run the leading marathons all over the world. We're also excited to announce we'll be working with Wild Nutrition over the build-up to the London Marathon with some great nutrition advice.
