Send us Fan MailAnyone who has ever watched the London Marathon will remember the guy who ran it in a diving suit. Mainly because they're still covering his progress three days after the event has finished.But that guy is Lloyd Scott, and running London in a diving suit is just one in an incredible career of ridiculous challenges Lloyd has undertaken all in the name of charity.As well as jaunts to most other major marathons in his diving suit, Lloyd has also run an entire marathon underwater in Loch Ness, has run London as St George AND a dragon and Indiana Jones being chased by a boulder, Brian the Snail from The Magic Roundabout, The Beatles in their Yellow Submarine and as the Iron Giant.But he's also doing some seriously extreme expeditions to the North Pole, South Pole, cycling a penny farthing 3,000 miles across Australia and walked Land's End to John O'Groats with a life-size T-rex.Jody and David speak to Lloyd about where it all started, what his best and worst challenges are, how he comes up with the ideas and why he feels the need to challenge himself this way.Enjoy!If you enjoyed this episode please SUBSCRIBE to get every episode delivered to you before everyone else.Join the conversation!

His plan was to take him from the bottom of South America all the way back to the UK via the Baring Straits (that had never been crossed on foot successfully since, well, the last Ice Age!).To say the journey has been epic is an understatement. He set off on his journey 20 years ago and through challenging circumstances, problems at borders and a continuing drive to achieve what many thought was impossible, he's still at it.

Send us Fan MailIt's not often you wake up one day and think "I know what I'll do next... I'll run across the US!", but that's pretty much how Ashley Schneider started on her journey that has seen her cross the US multiple times. Quitting her job on a cruise ship and moving back to Wisconsin to plan, Ashley knew she wanted to run across the US in aid of raising money to support multiple sclerosis charities, a disease that affected her mother. Little did she realise that the whole first run across the States would result in the organisation that is today MS Run The US, that takes hundreds of ordinary runners and allows them to join in an epic journey.Jody and David speak with Ashley about the moment of her epiphany, how she prepared for that first race and the challenge of raising money and co-ordinating runners from all across the US.

Send us Fan MailHere's Part 2 of the two-part interview with Yuliya Stepanova and Vitaly Stepanov. If you've not listened to Part 1, head back to episode 249 for the first half of the interview.Yuliya is a middle-distance runner who competed for Russia at the 2012 London Olympics and 2016 Rio Olympics. She became an informant for WADA. Vitaly worked for the Russian Anti-Doping Agency. Together they exposed the full extent of the state-sponsored doping programme that eventually led to Russia's exclusion at the Olympics and their fleeing to the US to avoid repercussions.With the Russian ban recently lifted by CAS, the issue of doping is again back in the picture. That's why Jody and David spoke with Yuliya and Vitaly about how they went from being a part of the system to attempting to bring it down, the effect it has had on their life and what their plans are for the future.Enjoy!If you enjoyed this episode please SUBSCRIBE to get every episode delivered to you before everyone else.Join the conversation!

Send us Fan MailYuliya Stepanova and Vitaly Stepanov are the two whistleblowers who exposed Russia’s state-sponsored doping programme, leading to the ban of Russian athletes in international competition. Yuliya is a middle-distance runner who competed for Russia at the 2012 London Olympics and 2016 Rio Olympics. She became an informant for WADA. Vitaly worked for the Russian Anti-Doping Agency. Together they exposed the full extent of the state-sponsored doping programme that eventually led to Russia's exclusion at the Olympics and their fleeing to the US to avoid repercussions.With the Russian ban recently lifted by CAS, the issue of doping is again back in the picture. That's why Jody and David spoke with Yuliya and Vitaly about how they went from being a part of the system to attempting to bring it down, the effect it has had on their life and what their plans are for the future.This is Part 1 of a two-part episode.

At 21, Connie escaped the community and a marriage she no longer wanted part of and took her young son to start a new life in a society she barely knew.During this period she found exercise and running - young women in her former community were prevented from doing any physical exercise - and found this a source of strength.

Send us Fan MailMarilyn Okoro's experience of being denied further funding to continue her athletics career really is a thing of shame. That's why Jody and David invite her onto the podcast to talk about her experience and uncover just how closed the system really is.Now a vocal advocate for athletes, Marilyn enjoyed success on the track finishing third in the 800 metres at the 2007 and 2008 IAAF World Athletics Final and bronze in the 4 x 400 metres relay at the 2007 World Champs.She is a holder of an Olympic bronze medal for the 4 x 400 metres relay after two teams that finished ahead of them in the 2008 Beijing Olympics were disqualified for doping and they were retrospectively handed the medal... EIGHT years later! (No prizes for guessing that one of the disqualified teams was Russia - the other was Belarussia).In this episode, Marilyn talks about her path into the sport and the issues she faced working with UK Athletics and a hierarchy who insisted she did things their way. This is a really eye-opening episode that gives you an insight into the way athletes are treated by the funding bodies who have the power to make or break careers based on sometimes quite oblique criteria.Enjoy!If you enjoyed this episode please SUBSCRIBE to get every episode delivered to you before everyone else.Join the conversation!

What you wouldn't expect is to be told "try running on some mountainous trails and see how it goes..."

Send us Fan MailCameron Wurf is that annoying kid at school who was naturally amazing at every sport he played. You know the one. He can literally pick a sport and be amazing at it. The Aussie was first a national champion and Olympic level rower, then jumped over to cycling before moving to Team Ineos where he has his the Ironman World Champs as his target. Just a matter of fact, he trains with some of the world's greatest athletes including Chris Froome and Eliud Kipchoge. And, you know what's even better - Cam is a really great guy and spills the bean on his experience in all disciplines on this episode. (Jody's best bit is when Cam tells the truth about cyclists...)
