    Super Shoe Secrets, Keely Hodgkinson & The Hardest Distance Race | Seb Coe

    11/05/2026 | 51 mins.
    Two-time Olympic champion Seb Coe breaks down the "Killing Zone", the brutal 500m–600m window he used to dismantle his rivals. He reveals how he pioneered the use of elite support teams, transforming the 800m into a calculated science where no detail was left to chance.

    The discussion shifts to the icons of today, from Keely Hodgkinson’s grounded authenticity to Usain Bolt’s official return via the new Ultimate Championship. Coe also reflects on David Rudisha’s 2012 world record, calling it the greatest single performance in sporting history.

    Coe addresses the sport's future and the impact of the climate crisis. He explains the historic decision to move the marathon to Athens in 2030 and offers a candid take on "supershoes," weighing the thrill of new records against the need to preserve the sport’s heritage.

    This special roundtable episode explores the vital role of mental fitness in reaching and sustaining peak performance.

    In this special roundtable episode, in partnership with BetterHelp, hosts Jake Humphrey, Spencer Matthews, and Matt Willis reframe therapy as an essential "performance tool." By comparing mental maintenance to physical training, the trio highlights how proactive support is key to navigating the pressures of modern life and sustaining peak performance.

    This conversation explores personal breakthroughs, from Jake’s experience with "Pure O" to Matt’s discovery of the power in asking, "How do I feel?" They discuss the value of having a "mental adult" in the room, a confidential professional who allows you to offload internal noise without the fear of burdening friends or family.

    Whether you are facing a crisis or simply seeking self-understanding, this episode demonstrates that therapy provides the clarity needed to show up as your best self. It is a raw, unscripted reminder that seeking support is a proactive choice for anyone committed to long-term resilience and growth.

    If it's an emergency or you need urgent help
    If you or someone else is in danger, call 999 or go to A&E now
    If you need urgent help for your mental health, get help from NHS 111 online or call 111
    Your mental health is as important as your physical health. You will not be wasting anyone's time.

    Explaining The Sub-2 Marathon | Stephen Scullion

    04/05/2026 | 49 mins.
    History has been made. The London Marathon just witnessed the unthinkable as the sub-two-hour barrier was finally shattered in a race for the ages. Olympic marathoner Stephen Scullion returns for an immediate, high-stakes reaction to the "perfect storm" that allowed two athletes to achieve what was once considered humanly impossible.

    In this special reaction episode, Stephen breaks down the "world-news" moment when the clock started with a "one," dissecting everything from the elite fueling and shoe tech to the psychological warfare of having a rival on your shoulder.

    Beyond the hype, he uses this historic milestone to challenge the "lie detector" of our own commitment, asking if we are truly willing to pay the "sacrifice tax" required to reach our own ultimate potential.
