Running whilst Black. What it's like to prepare for the London Marathon
Description
Recorded just a few days before the 2023 London Marathon, I chat to Leon Parkes, founder of Wembley based run club The Nov Way. He talks us through his running playlist and how his trainings been going. Plus I learned a lot from Tyler Williams Green, founder of run club and youth charity The Outrunners. Coach Gloria Sarpong shares what they're working on for women who may have been put off fitness in the past. AND I heard from other Black runners taking on the 26.2 miles across the city. This episode will leave you feeling inspired to chuck your trainers on and to just give a long run a go. Also, shoutout to Chelsea Okung who is the new producer of Bringing it Black - so great to have her on the team! Wanna have your say on future episodes? Drop me a message on insta at @mary.mandefield or email at hello@marymandefiel.com. Until next week!
