Running 44@60 - tips, ideas and advice for your first ultra marathon or marathon
If you are thinking about a first ultra marathon or marathon this is the podcast for you. Running 44@60 began as a motivational and educational tool to help host Trevor Lee celebrate in 2021 a landmark birthday by running his first ultra marathon - the 44 mile Classic Quarter on the Cornish coastal path from Lizard Village to Lands End.
The run was completed and the podcast has evolved and features runners and running specialists offering tips and advice from training to nutrition via race planning, kit, etc…
Most episodes are around 25 minutes of fast paced, energising and inspiring tips, advice and ideas.

West Highland Way - what happened?
On this episode of the Running 44@60 podcast Colin Bathe returns to tell us how he got on in the 2024 West Highland Way Race
On episode 148 we heard all about Colin's preparation - and Colin is a meticulous race planner.
During the event Colin and Becca, who was one of his crew and his second half pacer, recorded snippets. For this episode we play the snippets and then Colin talks us through each snippet. It's the first time we've done something like this so I hope you like it!
The West Highland Way Race got underway at 1am on Sunday June 22nd 2024 starting from Milngavie which is about 10 miles north of Glasgow.
The 95 mile route with 15,000 feet of elevation makes it way to Fort William
300 runners entered and 217 made the start line.
Throughout you will hear Colin giving himself a score out of 5 in terms of how he was feeling.
You will hear first hand how Colin's race unfolded. And not all races end as you hope they might.
