UNTAPPED with Spencer Matthews

Paula Radcliffe knows what it takes to push the marathon to its limits. The former world-record holder takes us inside the training, mindset and resilience that made her one of the greatest marathon runners ever.

She shares her golden rule for pacing, why flexibility and listening to your body matter, and how setbacks, both in running and life, changed her perspective. From world records to the toughest moments of her career, Paula reveals what a lifetime of running has taught her about performance, resilience and why the sport is about more than what you achieve.

Are you tired because life is busy… or could your body actually be missing something?

In this episode of Untapped Extra Mile, Oli Patrick tackles some of the most common nutrient deficiencies - iron, vitamin D and B12 - and explains how they could be affecting your energy, health and running performance.

Oli breaks down the warning signs to look out for, from unexplained fatigue and breathlessness to changes in performance, and explores when blood testing can actually be useful. He also explains why runners may need to pay particular attention to their nutrient levels, whether supplements are really necessary, and why simply taking more isn’t always the answer.
Plus, we look at why deficiencies may be becoming more common - and the simple questions you should ask before reaching for another supplement.

Because when it comes to performance, sometimes getting better isn’t about adding more. It’s about finding out what’s holding you back.

What does it actually take to get faster? For Olympic sprinter Daryll Neita, the answer isn't running further, it's running better.

Training five days a week in Florida, Daryll takes us inside the world of elite sprinting, from long winter sessions designed to build strength to the short, explosive work that creates speed. She also explains why sprinters rarely run more than 300–400m and why the gym can be just as important as the track.

For everyday runners, Daryll shares the simple principles that matter most: stay injury-free, make strength work explosive, master your drills and keep chipping away.

If magnesium is so good for you, why doesn't everyone need it? Spencer Matthews and Oli Patrick get into one of the wellness world's most popular supplements and separate the genuine benefits from the hype.

This episode is a closer look at whether magnesium is something every runner should be taking, or simply another supplement we’ve been told we need.

It took Nick Bester two years to break 20 minutes for 5K. Another four to break 17. Then three more to break 15.

Thirteen years after running his first 3:17 marathon, Nick ran 2:19:45. There was no shortcut, just years of chasing the next small win and learning that hard work can take you a long way.

Nick shares what those years taught him about getting faster, handling seven failed attempts at sub-2:20, and why coming agonisingly close can keep you hungry. From fuelling to racing and everything in between, this is a conversation about playing the long game and remembering why we run.
