It's week 9 of our Road to London Marathon series and we have a show full of inspiration and positivity for you this week.

Olympic bronze medallist and former American marathon record holder, Deena Kastor, joins the Club and talks about her marathon career including her six stars and what her cumulative times are, being a runner whilst balancing work & family commitments and how the values you learn in running can help you to accomplish more in your everyday life.

She talks about living at altitude, emotions versus strategy and how marathons can help your mental headspace. ALSO, did she really get stung in the mouth by a bee mid race?!

AND we check in with Charlotte - our fresher runner - have the shin splints gone and if not, what's the plan?
