  • Sho Gray: Aiming for 24-hours of running glory

    Sho Gray: Aiming for 24-hours of running glory
    Feb 13 2024
    Sho Gray has a big goal in 2024. The professional runner, who is the Tennessee state record holder for the 100-mile distance, is betting on himself to make the US national 24-hour race team. Sho is using his savings to dedicate himself to running in the hope of winning the American 24-hour race championship in November, and in doing so qualifying for the national team. It’s all a far cry from his first manoeuvrings in the world of running, when as a youngster at a Japanese international school he started taking part in the sport - with the somewhat disputed aim of beating his sister in the cross-country. Running Tales spoke to Sho about going from enthusiastic amateur to professional, entering the pain cave and exercising his toes, and how he wants to inspire everyone to do whatever their version of better is…   -------------------------------- Discount offer: Racin' Grayson Training Log & Planner Looking for a great gift for runners or the perfect training aid for yourself, designed by a pro-runner?

  • Stan Robertson: The street pastor who feeds rough sleepers - and the run to help him do it

    Stan Robertson: The street pastor who feeds rough sleepers - and the run to help him do it
    Feb 6 2024
    This week's Running Tales Podcast has a somewhat different theme. Our guest is Stan Robertson, the man behind Northampton-based rough sleeper charity Project 16:15. Running Tales is once again backing the 16:15 Charity Run, which will take place at The Racecourse in Northampton, England on Saturday, March 23. The event, which aims to raise awareness of and funding for rough sleepers in the town, will take place over six hours - with runners encouraged to run as long or as short a distance as they like over that period. There is more information about the event on our Substack newsletter page and on the 16:15 Charity Run Facebook group. Stan started Project 16:15 back in 2018, during the infamous Beast from the East cold snap, when he began delivering hot drinks and food to rough sleepers in Northampton town centre. His over-riding aim is bring dignity and respect to those on the streets. You can help fundraise for the 16:15 Charity Run here: https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/fun-run2024 Running Tales spoke to Stan about the dangers rough sleepers face on the streets, how his own experiences of homelessness and addiction help him connect to those he now helps, and whether he will be doing any running himself on March 23...   -------------------------------- Discount offer: Racin' Grayson Training Log & Planner Looking for a great gift for runners or the perfect training aid for yourself, designed by a pro-runner?

  • Emily Moore: From being told she'd never walk unaided to taking on the Marathon des Sables

    Emily Moore: From being told she'd never walk unaided to taking on the Marathon des Sables
    Jan 30 2024
    When Emily Moore was just 19 she suffered a knee injury which led to her being told she'd never walk unaided again, let alone run. Now, she's on the edge of taking on the toughest footrace in the world, the formidable Marathon des Sables, in April. After suffering her injury, Emily was determined she would run again, immediately entering the London Marathon. A painful period of rehabilitation followed, but her dream became a reality with her knee surgeon among those cheering her to the finish line. Since then, Emily has completed a number of marathons and triathlons, teaching herself to swim along the way. And last year she turned ultra runner, completing the Glasgow to Edinburgh Ultra in October 2022. That was followed by the five-day, 123-mile Capital to Country Ultra in Nepal last year. Her decision to powerwalk it, rather than run, saw her discover a unique way of tackling the endurance event that also featured a blessing at a school and a wedding. Running Tales spoke to Emily about running while pregnant, how the sport has helped her meet friends all over the world, and why the Nepal Capital to Country Ultra saw her find herself again after divorce...   -------------------------------- Discount offer: Racin' Grayson Training Log & Planner Looking for a great gift for runners or the perfect training aid for yourself, designed by a pro-runner?
