    In this first RunAlive Interval of Season 4, Ro, Gill, and Ed dive into something that's made a few people quite upset: the recent changes to Championship and Good For Age qualifying times for both the London and Boston Marathons. We explore how these changes are impacting runners at various levels—from club runners to those chasing lifelong goals. Gill shares her personal experience with the championship start, and we ask whether major marathons should be looking to be inclusive or exclusive.


    Is this a natural progression given the advancements in running technology, or are marathon organisers moving the goalposts unfairly in the middle of a qualifying window?


    We reference Kara Goucher and Des Linden's podcast on Boston Marathon times which you can find here
