Swift Half Episode 283 – Season Passes, 99 Laps, Celebs Running & A Whole Lot of Chaos

Alan and Ian dive into a packed episode this week,  things get wonderfully unhinged as Alan unveils 24 animal‑themed jokes gifted by Victoria Wheelhouse at Farm Yard Jam — drip‑fed throughout the show like questionable race nutrition. The lads bounce through everything from old‑school footballs that moved like UFOs, to celebrities (yes, even Harry Styles) turning up at running events, to the brilliantly bonkers "99 Laps" format that's part Backyard Ultra, part gladiator arena. There's a full breakdown of recent race experiences — Decca Manchester highs and lows, Ultra race chaos, volunteer judge struggles, Yorkshire Tough Mudder's wind‑powered Electroshock Therapy, and Liv smashing it as DecaKids race director. CrossFit Games results, Pentathlon updates, Deadly Dozen previews, and even a quick nod to Kevin Keegan's legacy at the Great North Run round out the show. It's messy, funny, informative, and very Swift Half.
