LONDON CALLING EP1: Ran To Japan, Jake Smith & Tim Vincent

We are so excited to bring you bi-weekly shows in the lead up to London Marathon with 3 men from the elite field.

Tim Vincent: 2:09PB, fresh off representing Australia in the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo last September, excited about making his Major Marathon debut.

Jake Smith: Back to his best with a 61:50 showing at Barcelona Half, returning to London to try and improve on his 2:11 last year.

Jake Barraclough aka @RanToJapan: YouTube sensation who will do absolutely anything that it takes to close the gap to the other boys. Will we see any 300km weeks as he tries to improve on his 2:14PB from Tokyo.

We hear about what the lads have been up to in the past few weeks as Tim and Jake Smith both raced half marathons.

RanToJapan is teasing us whether he will make the Tokyo start line this weekend - will he?

We discuss the different coaching set ups and backgrounds the lads have, all having different sponsors.

We talk about peak mileage and where training might head to in the coming weeks, before closing it out with a 'Race Readiness Score' and an Accountability Action to take into the next episode.

If you would like to sponsor the series and support the boys on their journey to the start line in 'The Big Smoke' then please reach out:
