Tina Muir, Great Britain representative and host of the popular Running For Real podcast joins Sophie Fitt to talk about growing up in England, getting into running and having a coach look after her long term before recounting how she got into the US college system through a gap year and running for Ferris State University in Michigan and the jump in intensity of the NCAA system coming from the UK club system. Tina shares the pressures that came with that environment and the missive to lose weight then having a better coaching experience in her second year.Tina then goes into how she pursued her life-long goal of representing Great Britain, driving force and the opportunity through a last-minute call up to the 2016 European Athletics Championship Half Marathon. After running her marathon PB of 2:36 at the 2016 California International Marathon, Tina’s plans for 2017 changed dramatically in the aftermath from that marathon and after meeting her niece while training high volume, the ongoing fight with the voice in her head and eventually the event that triggered her decision to step away from the sport. She openly shares her struggles with amenorrhea and dealing with constant symptoms throughout her life and finding her way back to fertility while Sophie provides insight and context to the condition. Tina then goes through the moment she fell pregnant with her first daughter Bailey, how and why her story went viral through all the media outlets before closing on what it’s like to be in America right now, some of the standout podcast guests she's hosted and her book recommendations.

This week paralympian Noel Thatcher MBE and 5-time Paralympian, talks to friend of the show Jarryd Clifford, starting with his impressive range of personal bests on the track and road and challenges getting records ratified.
Noel explains about being born with his vision impairment and how getting caught smoking at boarding school developed his ability to mix it with able-body competitors in the English school system. He recounts making his first of 5 Paralympic teams representing Great Britain at the 1984 Los Angeles Paralympics and whether he lived up to his own expectations, then redeeming himself in the 800m in Seoul Paralympics in 1988 after getting knocked off the track.Noel talks about the years between Paralympic Games, including competing and throwing banter at the European Championships, getting misguided by Aussie Pat Scammell as well as declaring his strategy to the media at the 1992 Barcelona Games and experimenting with longer distances in Japan. Noel then goes on how an injury in the lead up to Atlanta prevented him from pulling off the “full Zatopek”, the unforgettable atmosphere of Sydney Paralympics and how he was announced as the flag bearer for the Athens Games. 
Closes with retiring as an athlete and watching the parathlete movement swell, how far it’s come and getting support, what needs to change for para-sport to grow and what he looks forward to.
