Staying hydrated with fluids, maintaining healthy levels of minerals (electrolytes) is all part of the process of being a distance runner, particularly when sweating excessively for long periods of time. It's easy to get this wrong and in this podcast, Andy discusses this in-depth providing key points of information that should be followed up and tailored for the individual.

Very Good in Parts

Some excellent guests and enjoy Karl’s input when he can get a word in. Would prefer less info on Ian’s itinerary and more from the runners themselves. Wouldn’t mind mixing up the elite perspective with a few interviews directed towards normal runners to have a few takeaways to improve our own running / training but that might dilute his podcast / photography business model. Overall Ian is a warm and chatty host and obviously thoroughly enjoys attending, relaying, analysing elite ultra events.

Good content

Really enjoyed the recent MdS episode, great questions and good insight into a big change in the community. After listening I am excited to attend MdS in the future again. Thanks Ian

Wayyyyy to serious….

Yes it’s about running but it’s far too serious! It’s only running! I’m an ultra runner and yes I take it really seriously but gosh it’s about having fun on the way. The last thing we want is a podcast taking themselves way too seriously!
