We had a good old chat about some very interesting subjects including what it’s like to not only be a member of, but be the head coach of a pretty large running club, Couch to 5k and beyond, injury, strength training, is stretching a waste of time, are parkruns good or bad, plus much more.
It’s an hour long, so perfect to whack in your headphones whilst doing the housework, gardening or even on the treadmill 🙂
Please give us any comments and feedback and please check out Andy’s business and Facebook with these links:
