RUNcensored

Brian Beckstead, co-founder of Altra, joins Gary and Ben for a proper RUNcensored deep dive into the story behind one of running’s most distinctive brands.

We start, naturally, with Premier League football and Brian’s highly suspicious decision to “randomly” choose a new team to support before getting into the story of Altra, its humble family beginnings, the challenges of starting a running brand from scratch and the ideas that changed the game, including Zero Drop and Altra’s famous roomy toe box.
We also talk about Altra’s influence on the running industry, the industry’s influence on Altra, the changing world of performance racing shoes and what comes next for the brand.
A proper conversation with one of the key figures behind one of running’s most recognisable brands.

The weekly RUNcensored catch-up is back, starting with the usual football nonsense as Ben enjoys Leeds United’s flying start to the Premier League season while taking great pleasure in the struggles of Man United and Spurs.
Then it’s onto the running news, with Katharina Hartmuth’s record-breaking Tor de Géants run, the unfortunate Hyrox incident involving world record holder Joanna Wietrzyk, Sydney Sweeney, and RUNcensored favourite Camille Herron’s latest venture into OnlyFans.
And because we couldn’t possibly finish a normal running discussion without making things weird, there’s a Blind Ranking Top 5 to close things out. We’re keeping the subject secret, so you’ll have to listen to find out.

WE ARE SO BACK.
After a couple of months apart, Gary House and Ben Mounsey are finally back together in Ben’s living room for a proper RUNcensored catch up. Although, to be fair, it’s still not quite as long as it’s been since Spurs last won a football match.
There’s Gary’s many holidays, Ben’s trip to Sweden with the Kilian Jornet Foundation, trail restoration, and the ongoing mystery of whether Ben was stood up or set up by Gary and Kilian Jornet.
Then it’s all about UTMB Mont-Blanc 2026.
Fresh from Chamonix, the lads look back at paragliding into town, filming with Tom Evans and Hayden Hawks, photoshoots in the mountains, race coverage, RUNcensored-style filming, plenty of Aperol Spritz and all the chaos of the biggest week in trail running.
They also get into the future of UTMB, following comments from the new mayor of Chamonix about reducing the scale of the event and protecting the valley’s infrastructure and fragile ecosystem.
The lads are finally back together. Expect the usual laughs, running chat, questionable decisions and honest conversation.

This week on RUNcensored, we’re doing things a little differently.
While out in Chamonix during UTMB week with our series sponsor Sportsshoes.com, Gary House caught up with runners who had just completed some of the toughest trail races in the world.
Fresh from the finish line, Gary asks a simple question: what does it really take to get around these races?
We hear from two UTMB finishers about their experience of tackling 171km around Mont Blanc and the incredible support they received along the way from the crowds and local communities.
Then there’s a couple who somehow still have an unbelievable amount of energy after completing PTL – around 300km of seriously tough mountain terrain.
Pedro and Robbie share the story of travelling far and wide to fulfil their dream of completing OCC, while Ingrid talks about progressively working her way through the distances before finally taking on the ultimate challenge: UTMB.
No elite race analysis this time. Just honest, first-hand stories from ordinary runners doing extraordinary things in the mountains.

No House, No Party… or is it?

Gary House is taking a week off, so Ben Mounsey is joined by HOKA athlete Francesco Puppi for a special SportsShoes episode of RUNcensored.
This week, it’s 'Dear Puppi', where trail runners have problems and Francesco has answers. From first-time 100K runners and ultra fuelling to heat, altitude, support crews, chafing and choosing the right trail shoes, Francesco tackles questions from the SportsShoes community.

We also get into Francesco’s life in Como, his Italian roots, his relationship with fellow runner 'Rita', music and running, the best European races to have on your radar and whether his worldwide fanbase really should be called 'Puppies'.

And, of course, there are a couple of mentions of a certain Gary House… because apparently you can’t keep him away from RUNcensored for very long!
Expect plenty of laughs, some questionable advice and, surprisingly, plenty of genuinely useful answers from one of the biggest names in trail running right now.

And, if you’d like to watch the polished SportsShoes version of 'Dear Puppi' on YouTube, you can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QtoJ0_N-s4&t=41s
