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.
Check out Trevor’s running/business book - ’12 Business Lessons from Running an Ultra Marathon’ - available now on Amazon

Running 44@60 - tips, ideas and advice for your first ultra marathon or marathon
Shane Benzie - Running Coach and Movement Specialist
Shane Benzie is a Running Coach and Movement Specialist described by his client Damien Hall as 'the Indiana Jones of the Running World'
Shane has travelled the globe working with, filming and analysing the movements of not just runners but indigenous people and tribes who still move in the way that humans were ultimately designed to do so.
Shane has used all of this knowledge and experience and observation to help all types of runners from beginners to elite think about their running and improve it as a result.
We met when Shayn came to Truro and delivered a 2 1/2 hour workshop three times for athletes in groups of eight with lots of video analysis and focus on foot landing, pushing off, the inner tripod of the foot, running with the whole body and whipping through the legs from the hip to complete the ideal running action.
Shane describes his work as helping runners run more effortlessly, more efficiently and more enjoyably.
As runners Shane suggests we need to think more about our form and our movement.
One of his top tips for club runners is to focus on their head position as the natural thing for runners to do is to look down rather than keeping their head up with their eyeline looking ahead.
For the likes of me and my new coaching friends he suggests we apply the mind of the beginner so every time we do something we learn something.
