Robbie Britton x The Italian Job - Season 7 Eps 17 - Young Hearts Run Free Podcast - 31 March 2023

In this episode we’re joined by returning guest Robbie Britton. We’ve plenty to ask him and, as always, he has plenty to tell us! It’s not every day you break GB records after all!

After a chunky opening intro segment covering Twenty Along the Forth, an Anglo Celtic Plate preview and a little bit of empathy for those starting to taper for spring marathons the wee man joins us for high paced run down of what’s been going down since we last spoke.

Robbie is back at the very top of his game, his recent outing at the 24-hour race in Torino, Italy testimony to that. He walked away with a freshly baked new GB 24-hour record tucked under his arm and boy does it suit him.

We get the full monte low-down on his prep and execution of a spectacular day (and night) in Piedmont. Robbie is super generous with his time and knowledge, we delve into an intricate look at his fuelling, training, and mindset. The record he breeched had stood for an incredible 40 years!!

We spend a plenty time just chewing the fat with Robbie and hearing his take on all sorts, mostly but not exclusively running related. The cadence is high, the takeaways are endless. This one might well take you 2 listens.
Phew, we’re outta breath even thinking about it, enjoy gettin’ yir lugs roond this!
