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.

Ahead of the Royal Parks Half Marathon, Jenni is joined by the ultimate fitness machine - Jake Quickenden. Whether it’s singing on TV, surviving the Aussie jungle, skating on ice, stepping into the MMA ring, starring on stage, presenting, or being a devoted dad - Jake truly does it all.

In this episode, Jake shares why running holds such an important place in his life, the power of having a solid training plan, and why it’s okay to step back and try something new when the time is right.

Full of energy, honesty, and motivation, this chat is a reminder that fitness (and life!) is all about balance, adventure, giving things a go - and maybe not wearing pink shorts. 

Lace up and get inspired - this is RunPod at its best.

This week on The RunPod Power Playlist, Jenni is joined by the brilliant actress Sian Brooke - star of Trying on Apple TV+ and Blue Lights on the BBC.

The Extra Mile! Why Your Pace Might Drop In Autumn, And By The Way, That's Ok!

This week on RunPod, Jenni is joined by the brilliant actress Sian Brooke - star of Trying on Apple TV+ and Blue Lights on the BBC.

Jenni and Sian first met years ago on ITV's This Morning, and now they’re reunited to chat about one of Sian’s quiet lifelong passions: running.

Although she’s been lacing up since she was 17, Sian never quite considered herself “a runner” - she jokingly calls herself a shuffler. But that steady shuffle has carried her through so many moments in life, becoming her solace, her moving meditation, and her way of finding calm amidst busy days.

In this episode, Jenni and Sian dive into the profound impact running has on their everyday lives, how to squeeze a run into even the busiest schedule, and the thrill (and challenge!) of half marathons.

Whether you’re a gazelle, a casual jogger, or a fellow shuffler, this conversation will remind you why running is about so much more than miles on the clock.

The Extra Mile! Why Autumn Might Be The Best Time To Run

This week on RunPod, Jenni is joined by Jazz Saunders - best known for being part of the Made in Chelsea set, but now making a name in the running community.

Although she only took up running last November, running has completely transformed Jazz's life. She’s already conquered the London Marathon, discovered the unbeatable joy of runner’s high, and even launched her own run club on Instagram to inspire others.

In the studio, Jazz arrives wearing her signature 222 angel number necklace - a symbol she also has is her Instagram description. It's a number that represents balance, harmony, and trusting in your process - which perfectly mirrors what running teaches: finding your pace, staying positive when your run gets challenging, and believing every step brings strength, connection, and clarity. How perfect!

You may be listening to this episode of RunPod as a companion as you pound the pavements or head out on the trails, but what if you could find someone in your local area to go for a run with, to share the passion, motivate each other and maybe even compete with to run just that bit further or faster. 
Well, this week Jenni is joined by three friends who have come up with an app to help you do just that. BuddyUp is a matchmaking fitness app for runners to find, like and match with nearby training partners.
Joey, John and Emily chat to Jenni about how they came up with the idea for the app, their running experiences, the advantages to running with a buddy, including safety, the feedback they've had from users and their ambitions for the future.
