Mile-024 - In Pursuit of Drambuie

So whats all this about?

This is me in my garden! Phil Moneypenny from Runcast.tv and I have lovingly recreated the video for "Take on Me" by "Aha" to aim to win ourselves a place in the famous "Drambuie Pursuit" event and we need your help!

We need your votes for our video at www.DrambuiePursuit.com/teams/ and vote 5 stars for our team's video based upon the above song. Our team is called "Living the Dram". The top 10 teams go to the event and we would love to be able to bring you the experience of that weekend on Runcast.tv and the A Mile with Me Podcast. The more of you vote for us the better our chances of getting in to the event!

On mile 24 we also hear from Ciemon running across Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, England and I also mention Krister from "Running the Narrow Path" podcast. This week I was on ForestFM http://www.forestfm.co.uk/ for an hour discussing running, the podcast and people I've interviewed whilst they played my favourite tracks.

Also I talk about the great interviews conducted by Adam at

1 by 1 Edition 6 - The Wall

On today's show I'm joined by friend of the podcasters and regular Extramile contributor Gary Wall, aka The Kinverkid.

Gary was on holiday down here in Bournemouth, so (naturally!) we go for a run along the seafront and chat about our running and plans.

We discuss the Swift Half Marathon, which Gary and I (plus a host of other UK podcasters and bloggers) have signed up to run in Matlock, Derbyshire in May. We also discuss brewery tours, "CSI Kinver", the places hes visited in my local area plus the story of an amazing challenge Gary and his pals have set themselves; soon they will be running the 85 mile length of Hadrians Wall (think Great Wall of China on a smaller scale!). The wall marked the northern boundary of the Roman Empire and for them the end point of civilisation, but as Gary and I love the Scottish we dont draw any modern conclusions on that!!! ;o) Gary and his team are doing the event for a good cause so pop on over to http://www.kinverkid.blogspot.com/ and find out more.

Todays Classic Run Track is Comfortably Numb from (of course) the terrific Pink Floyd album "The Wall"

1 by 1 - Edition 5 - Another Avon Valley Sunday-ayay

Around the Avon valley and alongside the River Stour - as I contemplate buying a road bike and we find out what a "Bailey Bridge" is!

A couple of warm spring Sunday afternoons recently, so lay back with the Sunday papers and join me on the riverbank of the Stour in the shade of a Willow tree. Ratty and Mole were on the bench with me!! This week's music, courtesy of the Podsafe Music Network at Music.Podshow.comFluid Boys - Melody of Life (1 by 1 Theme Tune)
