Summary
How dirty is too dirty after a race? And would you really go straight from a fell run to a wedding without showering? In this Chat GBT episode (Gary Ben Trails), we answer your questions - from whether performance nasal strips actually work, to wearing new shoes straight out of the box, and what it really takes to train for VKs (Vertical Kilometre races). It quickly descends into some properly grim stories from the trail and fell running world - including fell runner James Logue’s infamous towel that’s somehow survived decades without seeing a wash. We also get into running icks, Ben’s chaotic messaging habits across every platform going, apps beyond Strava like MapRun and Navi Tabi, and finish with a Top 5 guilty pleasures in running list that gets weird fast. Unfiltered, honest, and exactly what you’ve come to expect from RUNcensored. #running #trailrunning #fellrunning #ultrarunning #podcast #runningcommunity #VKtraining #Strava #MapRun #NaviTabi #RUNcensored RUNcensored 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: [email protected] Produced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Media www.eastwood-media.co.uk Hosted on Acast.
