EP72 - Mel Sykes returns to share all about Ultra Trail Snowdonia by UTMB
Rule no.1 of RUNcensored Club - we don’t do podcasts on Zoom.Rule no.2 of RUNcensored Club - we definitely don’t do podcasts on Zoom.Well… this week we broke the rules.The lads have been out in Chamonix filming their own version of the Circle Pit with Satisfy, and rather than leave you hanging another week, we’ve patched together a remote episode to celebrate one thing we couldn’t ignore - Mel Sykes absolutely smashing it at UTS.Mel returns to the pod to talk through one of the biggest performances of her running career and how it earned her a place on the CCC start line in Chamonix. The weather, the conditions, the suffering, the highs, the lows and the weird emotional rollercoaster that ultra running seems to drag all of us through eventually.We also touch on missing Quid Games in Keswick, throw together a very loose “Top 3”, rather than a “Top 5”, because standards have clearly slipped, and generally chat the usual amount of nonsense along the way.Audio quality? Slightly dodgy.Running chat? Still elite.If you’ve ever doubted yourself before a big goal… this one will hit home.Subscribe, follow, and share with your running mates.#RUNcensored #RunningPodcast #TrailRunning #UltraRunning #UTS #UltraTrail #TrailRunner #UltraRunner #MountainRunning #EnduranceRunning #RunningCommunity #UKRunning #TrailRun #UltraMarathon #RunningLife #RunnersOfInstagram #RunCulture #SatisfyRunning #CirclePit #Keswick #QuidGames #MelSykes #GaryHouse #BenMounsey #TrailRace #UltraRace #AdventureRunning #FellRunning #MountainAthlete #RunningMotivation #PainCave #EnduranceSport #LongRun #RaceDay #RunningChat #PodcastLife #YouTubePodcast #BritishRunning #TrailCommunity #RunnerLife #UltraCommunity #Mindset #SportsPodcast #RunningHumour #OffRoadRunning #TrailCulture #DistanceRunning #RunWild #TrailPodcast #DirtyMilesRUNcensored Podcast 🎙The unfiltered running podcast with Gary House & Ben Mounsey — honest chats with athletes, coaches and characters from the world of running.🌍 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runcensoredpod📩 Get in touch: gary@houserunningclub.comProduced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Mediawww.eastwood-media.co.uk Hosted on Acast.

EP69 - Inside The Fellsman: Britain’s Most Historic Trail Running Ultra?
Fresh off the back of the Fellsman Ultra, Gary and Ben are joined by friend of the podcast Rich Lazenby for a very tired, slightly broken, and heavily sleep-deprived episode.The lads dive into what makes the Fellsman one of the UK’s most iconic ultra distance trail running events: brutal heat across the Yorkshire Dales, military-level Scout organisation, incredible checkpoint support, navigation decisions, cramp, fatigue, and the unique atmosphere that keeps runners coming back year after year.There’s also the usual nonsense along the way including empty Spar shelves, missing San Pellegrino and accusations that producer Chris Davies is avoiding the pod because of football results.Ben also found an old, dishelleved carrot in the back of the fridge that looks (and probably feels) just like Gary right now.A proper post-race debrief from one of Britain’s most historic ultras.#RUNcensored #Fellsman #Ultrarunning #TrailRunning #UltraMarathon #YorkshireDales #FellRunning #SportsShoes #YETI #RunningPodcastRUNcensored Podcast 🎙The unfiltered running podcast with Gary House & Ben Mounsey — honest chats with athletes, coaches and characters from the world of running.🌍 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runcensoredpod📩 Get in touch: gary@houserunningclub.comProduced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Mediawww.eastwood-media.co.uk Hosted on Acast.
