EP72 - Mel Sykes returns to share all about Ultra Trail Snowdonia by UTMB
<p>Rule no.1 of RUNcensored Club - we don’t do podcasts on Zoom.</p><p>Rule no.2 of RUNcensored Club - we definitely don’t do podcasts on Zoom.</p><p>Well… this week we broke the rules.</p><br><p>The lads have been out in Chamonix filming their own version of the Circle Pit with Satisfy, and rather than leave you hanging another week, we’ve patched together a remote episode to celebrate one thing we couldn’t ignore - Mel Sykes absolutely smashing it at UTS.</p><p>Mel returns to the pod to talk through one of the biggest performances of her running career and how it earned her a place on the CCC start line in Chamonix. The weather, the conditions, the suffering, the highs, the lows and the weird emotional rollercoaster that ultra running seems to drag all of us through eventually.</p><br><p>We also touch on missing Quid Games in Keswick, throw together a very loose “Top 3”, rather than a “Top 5”, because standards have clearly slipped, and generally chat the usual amount of nonsense along the way.</p><br><p>Audio quality? Slightly dodgy.</p><p>Running chat? Still elite.</p><br><p>If you’ve ever doubted yourself before a big goal… this one will hit home.</p><br><p>Subscribe, follow, and share with your running mates.</p><br><p>#RUNcensored #RunningPodcast #TrailRunning #UltraRunning #UTS #UltraTrail #TrailRunner #UltraRunner #MountainRunning #EnduranceRunning #RunningCommunity #UKRunning #TrailRun #UltraMarathon #RunningLife #RunnersOfInstagram #RunCulture #SatisfyRunning #CirclePit #Keswick #QuidGames #MelSykes #GaryHouse #BenMounsey #TrailRace #UltraRace #AdventureRunning #FellRunning #MountainAthlete #RunningMotivation #PainCave #EnduranceSport #LongRun #RaceDay #RunningChat #PodcastLife #YouTubePodcast #BritishRunning #TrailCommunity #RunnerLife #UltraCommunity #Mindset #SportsPodcast #RunningHumour #OffRoadRunning #TrailCulture #DistanceRunning #RunWild #TrailPodcast #DirtyMiles</p><p><strong>RUNcensored Podcast</strong> 🎙</p><p>The unfiltered running podcast with Gary House & Ben Mounsey — honest chats with athletes, coaches and characters from the world of running.</p><br><p>🌍 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runcensoredpod</p><p>📩 Get in touch: gary@houserunningclub.com</p><br><p><br></p><p>Produced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Media</p><p>www.eastwood-media.co.uk</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

EP70 - Are £40 Lidl carbon running shoes any good?
<p>Cheap carbon shoes, influencer trends, and some properly unfiltered running opinions.</p><p>Gary and Ben are back with another mixed bag episode covering everything from Ben’s public apology over a missed yellow sticker bargain to the rise of budget carbon-plated running shoes and whether they’re actually worth it.</p><p>They chat about Jimmy Gressier’s latest European 5K record, the growing competition in the super shoe market, and why they’re still sceptical about £40 “performance” options from Lidl. There’s also discussion around influencer culture in running, smart (and not so smart) race hacks, and the balance between cost and quality when it comes to kit.</p><p>The ChatGBT segment dives into the BPN Backyard Ultra, the debate around women in ultra running, plus listener questions on training, plyometrics, and the maddest kit they’ve seen out on the trails.</p><p>The episode finishes with Gary and Ben picking their top 5 RUNcensored episodes so far, featuring some standout guests from the podcast’s history.</p><p>Raw, honest, and very much off-script.</p><br><p>#RUNcensored #TrailRunning #Ultrarunning #RunningPodcast #CarbonPlates #RunningShoes #Lidl #BackyardUltra #UKRunning #JimmyGressier</p><p><strong>RUNcensored Podcast</strong> 🎙</p><p>The unfiltered running podcast with Gary House & Ben Mounsey — honest chats with athletes, coaches and characters from the world of running.</p><br><p>🌍 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runcensoredpod</p><p>📩 Get in touch: gary@houserunningclub.com</p><br><p><br></p><p>Produced by Chris Davies, Eastwood Media</p><p>www.eastwood-media.co.uk</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
