Caroline Quentin

This week joining the Runpod Run Club is actress, broadcaster and tv presenter Caroline Quentin. Caroline recently fell ill with Covid and is slowly returning to the joys of running, and loving it. Jenni and Caroline chat about discovering running in her late 50s, the Couch 2 5K process, the realisation that running isn’t just for fitness, it can play a big part in your headspace and mental health, the joy of being able to take running with you no matter where you are, her changing perceptions of runners and running, what her first ever run was like and that runners nod we all use when we spot one another.

Welcome to RunPod, the weekly run club you can join simply by listening. In this series Jenni Falconer welcomes special guests who share that passion for running. Together they’ll discuss the challenge, reward and sometimes obsession of pounding the pavement whilst asking what drives us to run, why some catch the bug more than others, and how it can transform the lives of those who do it. Along the way, you'll hear top training tips, monumental mistakes and some inspirational stories. So, whether you’re a seasoned marathoner, treadmill trainer, fitness guru or simply putting off that Sunday jog, RunPod is here for you.
