This week, we will go back to the normal format with an interview with one of the local legends in Ayrshire.

Many of you will know Bert through the Fit Ayrshire Masses, but on this week's episode, we talk about:

• His fitness journey and early C25K ''ing'
• Realising that you don't have to run fast all the time and using running as a way of managing to lose over 6 stone
• Finding out what types of races and events he likes most
• Discovering the world of ultrarunning and, like many of u,s popping his ultra cherry on Run the Blades 50k
• Becoming a more confident runner and tweaking what he was doing through coaching
• Completing his biggest challenge to date - the Wall 70-mile ultramarathon
• and much more

Something a little bit different this week, where I am joined by not one, not two, but three guests.

I am joined by a previous guest of the show, Scott (S1 E6) and our crew for the Ultra Scotland 100, George and Michael.

Both George and Michael are also fresh off crewing duties from the West Highland Way Race, just two weeks after crewing Scott and I on the Scotland 100.

I have been crewed by all the guys so it was super interesting to hear what it is like being a crew member - and you also get to hear what it was like crewing on the Scotlans 100.

We talk about:

• Their background
• How did they prepare for the race
• What the experience was like on race day
• Some insights and reflections
• Advice if you are looking to crew, or looking to get a crew

Mixing things up a bit this week where we have previous guest and friend of the show Kayleigh interview me about my time on the Southern Upland Way completing GB Ultras Ultra Scotland 100 Race.

This race covers 104 miles of the National Trails and around 18 thousand feet of climbing

We talk about:

• Some of my background in running and what led me here
• Preparations for the race and what specific training I did to get myself ready
• How the race panned out (TL;DR went well, then didn't)
• What's up next?
