Vassos Alexander

Vassos Alexander is another Runpod Run Club Returner! He's also a radio and podcast presenter, an author, and a runner and joins Jenni on the podcast this week. They chat Vassos' challenge of running this week's London Landmarks Half wearing a costume, how his experience running the marathon wearing a Minion costume was, which London landmark he'll be running as this weekend, all about the world record he's trying to set whilst running in the costume, the joy of races returning to the running calendar, Run Fest Run, sadly having to pull out of the hardest 100 miler in the UK due to injury, the importance of sleep, and the beauty of cold water swimming.

Om Podcasten

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.
