CRAP has a new co-host!

Hayden has officially abandoned Shannon, but that doesn't mean the yapping is over. Instead, she's roped in a cowboy to join her as co-host on this, and all future episodes. We'd like to welcome Brodie Clark to the podcast, and wish him well dealing with Shannon's trail offs...

Together, we chat about:

• Why Shannon & Hayden picked Brodie to take up the mantle
• How Brodie is feeling about his new found fame
• Whether he's actually casual enough for CRAP (he's not)
• How recording episodes will work with Brodie living in Jurien Bay
• Shannon doing her first ever unassisted chin up
• Brodie running sub 1:30 at Freo Running Festival

Hayden and Shannon are solo again this week... for the final time. You'll have to tune in to the end of the episode to find out what the means.

But first up, we come up with some new names for an Ultra event, and it's about as unhinged as you would think.

Some favourites include:

• The Pork Chop
• The Bobtail Bolt
• The Galah Glide
• The Stegosaurus Stomp

We were supposed to have a guest on this week's episode, but unfortunately some technical difficulties stopped us from being able to record at the last minute.

So, at the 11th hour, we recorded a very last minute episode diving into one of Hayden's longest running rabbit holes: the world of Marathon Investigations.

We chat about about the people getting caught out cheating during running events of all shapes and sizes, and whether we think some of the behaviour is really cheating at all.

This week, we're joined by Darren Chandler - amateur boxer, ultra runner, and gym owner. Together we chat about:

• Getting his nose broken by Danny Green
• An addictive personality that leads him to go all in
• How he's training for an 100km road ultra
• Running with Macka on the Bibb Track
• The humbling experience of being a pacer who gets dropped

But first, we CRAP on about:

• Our lack of a training week
• Big's Backyard Ultra
• The FKT being absolute flogs

Hayden and Shannon both ran a marathon. That's it, that's all you need to know for this episode. Tune in to hear a one-hour run recap of a couple of the most mid marathons to ever go down.

We hope you've got a long run planned, because this episode goes for 2 hours and you are going to want to listen to it all.

Hayden is away from the mic, busy trying to Felix to understand what bedtime is, so Shannon has brought in the least casual co-host she could find - her husband.

In case you've missed it, Mackenzie (Macka) Burgoyne recently finished the Bibbulmun Track in a new record time of 8 days, 22 hours, and 44 minutes. He set the record just two days after Aaron Young broke the previous FKT in a time of 9 day, 3 hours, and 22 minutes.

Together, Shannon and Macka give you a day by day recap of the whole experience, from both running and crewing perspective. Tune in to hear about the endless drama and challenges they faced:

• Gut issues
• Snakes
• Flooding
• Dead head torches
• Low Garmin battery
• Getting lost
• Bridge closures
• Sketchy 4WD tracks
• Boddington police
• Injuries
