Naturally, that leads into a conversation around LetsRun, its reputation within the sport, and the balance between reporting, opinion, and controversy.There’s also a quick-fire round where we put Jon on the spot with everything from favourite meets and dream interviews to Brighton & Hove Albion allegiances and a few curveballs.If you’re into marathon racing, elite track & field, or just want a behind-the-scenes look at how the biggest stories in the sport are covered — this is a must-listen.If you like this content and you want more of it.. visit https://www.patreon.com/c/EasyDouble to join the clubGive us a follow on instagram @easydoublepodFollow the show & leave a 5* reviewSend an email to [email protected]

Jake Barraclough missed the start of this one… still sat in the sauna after getting caught out by daylight savings kicking in back in the UK but not in Japan 😅 Once we got him on (mid-sweat, still recovering), we got straight into a proper London Calling catch-up with 3 weeks to go.We unpacked Jake Smith’s recent half marathon block — from Bath to Berlin — including front-running battles, getting “sat on” for 10 miles, and what it’s like when it all blows apart in the final kilometre. Then contrasting that with Berlin, where it was a no-pressure, no-taper effort — racing in sunglasses, chatting mid-race, and running just seconds off peak shape at a much lower heart rate. The takeaway? Fitness is in a very good place at exactly the right time.Tim Vincent then looks ahead to his upcoming 10km in Lille — a late entry into a seriously stacked field. We get into why it matters, the mindset going into a race like that, and how it fits into a marathon build. There’s a really honest discussion around respecting the level, racing properly vs “fudging it”, and what a performance here could mean heading into London.Jake Barraclough brings the chaos — from sauna mishaps to a much more serious insight into the last few months. He opens up on dealing with a long-term back issue, running through pain, and ultimately having to step back and rebuild. There’s some really valuable perspective here on injury management, biomechanics, and how quickly things can shift when consistency is taken away.Elsewhere, we get into:Marathon month reality — 3 weeks to go and it starting to feel realLong runs together in London (and why Bushy/Richmond might be the best spots in the city)The mental shift from racing blocks → full marathon focusTaper nerves, start line anxiety, and just trying to get there healthyLondon is close now… and for all three, the paths there couldn’t look more different.We'll be back, the week of the race to capture the lads final thoughts and get into the race plans and stratergies!

Episode 53 opens in classic Easy Double fashion — bird attacks, gym chat and a brief debate about whether anyone should ever run a marathon in jeans — before we get into one of the biggest weeks of distance running so far this year.We dive deep into Keely Hodgkinson’s indoor world record, unpacking not just the time but the authority of the performance. Has she shifted from championship racer to era-defining middle-distance force? What does this mean for the global 800m picture heading outdoors — and who, realistically, can challenge her right now?From there we head to Castellón 10k, where the roads absolutely lit up. European records, outrageous depth and another reminder that road 10k running has entered a different stratosphere. We break down the significance of the performances, the pacing dynamics, and whether the roads are now producing more compelling narratives than the track.We also analyse the Osaka Marathon, looking at execution, pacing decisions and what these early-season marathon performances tell us about championship builds later in the year. Who looked controlled? Who looked aggressive? And what does it signal for the rest of 2026?Listener Questions are addressed with some interesting reflections.YouTube diaries is dedicated to one of the biggest winners at Osaka Marathon, USA's Ethan Shuley who ran courageously and outrageously to go #6 all time for the USA.Plus, we preview a massive week ahead for Easy Double — two major interviews dropping (including a current Australian record holder) and the launch of a London Marathon mini-series.As always: serious running analysis, zero ego, a few strong opinions and plenty of sideways banter.
