Ep 157 - Understanding runner's physiology with Professor Andrew Jones

Send us Fan Mail

What Andrew Jones doesn't know about the human body and running isn't worth knowing.

No other person knows the capability and capacity of Paula Radcliffe in her prime. Andy supervised the measurement and monitoring of Radcliffe's running efficiency and aerobic capacity for more than a decade and knows in detail what makes the difference.

Andy has also been at the forefront of British sport for decades having consulted UK Athletics, various sporting bodies and major sporting brands such as Gatorade and Nike.

And (almost most) famously, Andy is the man behind the beetroot running thing. (His twitter handle is even @AndyBeetroot). 

Now he shares his knowledge with the Do-Badders and BOY is this a great episode.

(We admit, it wasn't long enough - we're definitely getting him back on.)

Enjoy!
