In this episode we’re having a chat with Nell McAndrew, who just happens to be gracing the cover of our January issue right at this very minute. Have you got your copy yet? We are so chuffed to have bagged Nell on our cover - now you might remember Nell from back in the 90s when she transformed into Lara Croft and ended up on many a bedroom wall. But these days, she’s better known as a marathon and fitness superstar. She bagged an impressive marathon sub-3 PB back in 2012 at the London Marathon, and has continued to run and strength train and inspire the rest of us since then. I talk to her about what it’s like to run when you’re a well-known person, and also how she started in the first place. And now that she’s in her 40s, we also talk about why it’s lovely to run for running’s sake rather than chasing a PB all the time. She talks to me about running for charities that are close to her heart, wanting to run parkrun when she’s 80, and how her training for a marathon would be a whole lot different these days now that she knows more about nutrition. She’s an absolute legend on Instagram, and I have loved being inspired by her fitness sets during lockdown, and her unwavering enthusiasm for the joy of the run – you’ll be inspired too, just you wait!Please rate and review us wherever you listen to your podcasts – these reviews mean the WORLD to us, and really help us to keep this podcast going.

Ep 73. Nell McAndrew, runner and January cover star

In this episode Jenni sits down with a true running machine. An uber gorgeous and mega fit one at that! After becoming Britain's 34th fastest woman in 2012, there's not much Nell McAndrew doesn't know about running. Nell ran 12 miles to get to the studio for this one, braving torrential downpours and traffic. But when they sat down, Nell talked Jenni through her journey from casual jogger to running champ, finding the sport later in life, as well as the food we need to fuel our bodies, and fitting it all in. Expect tips galore and some seriously infectious motivation in this one!

Virgin London Marathon ballot opens - and closes! We have got a great interview with celebrity 2:54 marathon runner, Nell McAndrew. Fast and full podiums. Tony brings us his trials. You rant and the launchpad rumbles on.
