Episode Notes

In episode 158 of The Running Channel Podcast, Tom discusses his experience of attempting to complete The World's Highest Marathon. With a start line at 6,893m this was always going to be a test of will, grit and determination, even more so than a test of running. Tune in to the episode to find out Tom's full experience. Plus the usual news from the world of running and viewer questions.

The Running Channel Podcast tackles one big topic each episode, amongst helpful tips and light-hearted chat on the latest news in the running world. Hosted by Sarah Hartley (amateur runner) and Andy Baddeley (former pro runner) alongside Rick Kelsey (recovering runner), the TRC Podcast is friendly, jargon-free, and the perfect accompaniment to your runs.
