We are BACK!

Then a good chinwag with Jen and Sim Benson, authors of the book 'Smart Running' who discuss their background in running and coaching, the impact of technology and social media on running, and the importance of trusting oneself in training.
They emphasize the need to find a balance between extremes and to listen to one's own body and intuition. The book provides accessible and informative guidance on various aspects of running, debunking myths and providing evidence-based information.
