It sparks a lively debate and uncovers one of Rick’s dark truths: he doesn’t log his warm-ups or cool-downs. Much to Sarah’s disgust!

Sarah wraps up this three-part mini-series with a deep dive into her experience of running the Copenhagen Half Marathon, as part of the World Athletics Road Running Championships.
After a challenging training block, Sarah wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Her goal was simply to get out there, see what she could do, and enjoy the experience of racing through such an amazing city. But would all of that change as she stood on the start line?
And with Olympian Andy Baddeley pacing her, what could possibly go wrong?
Rick shares his experience of supporting Sarah from the sidelines - although he only managed to see her half as many times as he was supposed to!
The team also dive into how to effectively recover after a race, both physically and mentally, and why giving yourself time to reset is just as important as the training itself.

Is the 10% rule for increasing your running mileage actually a myth? And are runners really honest with their physios about how much they’re training?
This week, Andy, Sarah and Rick take a closer look at running load, injury risk, and what the research actually tells us about how much training is too much. They discuss how a key study measured running load, why your single biggest run may matter more than you think, the role of deload weeks and how to reduce your risk of injury while still making progress.

Shownotes
Following Josh Kerr’s comments that the prize money for breaking the One Mile World Record was “ridiculous” and “appalling”, we take a closer look at the state of athletics and ask a bigger question: why does one of the world’s most popular participation sports struggle to attract the audience and attention it deserves?
With low attendances at major events, including this week’s European Championships in Birmingham, and athletes increasingly questioning whether their performances are properly valued, we explore the disconnect between the millions of people who run and the relatively small number who watch athletics.
Andy shares his own journey to the world stage, the sacrifices it took to get there, and what success really meant to him. Was it the financial reward, the achievement itself, or the pride of representing your country?
We also look at what World Athletics is doing to modernise the sport, attract new audiences and make athletics a more attractive prospect - and ask whether these initiatives can actually secure the future of the sport.

WOW! History was made at the London Diamond League as Josh Kerr ran a mind-blowing 3:42.66 to break the men's mile world record, a mark that had stood since 1999, when Hicham El Guerrouj set it.
Andy and Sarah unpack one of the greatest middle-distance performances we've ever seen, looking at the numbers behind the run and why it's such a landmark moment for the sport.
Andy shares his own personal experience, having ranked number one in the world for the mile when he ran 3:49.38 in Oslo in 2008. He explains just how hard it is to run this event at the highest level, talks through how the race unfolded, and breaks down the perfectly executed pacing strategy that helped make history.
Sarah, meanwhile, puts Josh's speed into context in her own way... by comparing it to the speed of a cat.
