About this episode
We have THREE special guests for you this week as Paula and Thommo catch up with Great North Run Founding members Brendan Foster and John Caine plus North East Mayor Kim McGuiness tells us about why it's so special running here.
Listen for so many great stories from behind the scenes at the run and it's origins. We based ourselves up there so make sure to WATCH on YouTube to see our amazing view from Brendan's office!
We LOVE hearing from you so comment, get in touch with the club to ask any questions on tips for running, marathons, half marathons, 5k, 10k, or just a jog. We can help with nutrition, recovery and how to put one foot in front of the other!
