The Running Channel Podcast

After Rick’s tirade last week about a fellow Parkrunner’s heavy breathing, the team are back to explore the science behind how breathing affects your running. What’s really happening to your lungs and body when you run? Can you actually change the way you breathe and could it improve your performance? Plus, the team recap all the action from the Cape Town Marathon, featuring a surprise live quiz from The Running Channel’s very own Jess Furness, reporting straight from Cape Town! The Running Channel Podcast  tackles one big topic each episode, amongst helpful tips and light-hearted chat on the latest news in the running world. Hosted by Sarah Hartley (amateur runner) and Andy Baddeley (former pro runner) alongside Rick Kelsey (recovering runner), the TRC Podcast is friendly, jargon-free, and the perfect accompaniment to your runs.
