In this special wrap-up episode of the RunAlive Podcast, Ed, Gary, and Jenny come together to reflect on their highlights of Season 3.

They kick things off with a nostalgic look back at their conversation with ultra-running legend Nicky Spinks, whose inspiring journey as a breast cancer survivor and her "rule of three" left a lasting impact on the team.

Gary shares his admiration for Marcus Brown, whose advocacy for athletes of colour and personal story of discovering his autism later in life resonated deeply. Jenny recalls the conversation with Innes Fitzgerald highlighting the importance of pursuing one's passion despite challenges. Ed discusses the privilege of running, a lesson he learned from Gary Laybourne, whose work with coachcore emphasises the joy and opportunity that running and sport provides. The team also delves into the community aspect of running, with Jenny highlighting Ben Pochee's dedication to grassroots events like the Night of the 10,000m PBs, and Ed emphasizing the fun and camaraderie he experienced at the Greenbelt Relay. The episode also revisits memorable insights from guests like Steph McCall, who reminded listeners about finding joy in new challenges, and Mike Peace, the ever-present London Marathon runner whose humility and cause-driven motivation were truly inspiring.

As the hosts reminisce, they underscore the importance of perspective, community, and the shared passion that binds runners together. With plans already underway for Season 4, make sure you catch up on any episodes you missed, stay connected on social media, and look forward to more inspiring stories in the upcoming season.
