Chasing the Finish Running Podcast Episode 34 | Arrow Valley 2.0, Prize Money & Wolverhampton Booked

Ben, Jake & Mike return with another instalment of questionable pacing decisions, bold race entries, and Mike once again hoping this is finally his quiz-winning week. This week we head back (yes, back again) to Arrow Valley Country Park. There’s also some exciting chatter about Brooks pitching up, the lads trying on fresh trainers before the run, and the confidence boost that only brand-new shoes can bring (guaranteed at least 3 seconds per mile, obviously). We also dive into the Pairs Sunday action at Centurion Running Club Grand Prix, including the moment Ben officially became a professional athlete… after earning his first-ever running career prize money. Yes, we reveal the amount. No, he’s not retiring yet. Elsewhere, Ben & Jake have officially booked the Wolverhampton 10K. With an already chaotic March race calendar, we get into goals, expectations, and whether this is peak fitness season… or peak delusion season. And of course, it wouldn’t be Chasing the Finish without Jake stepping into his quizmaster era. Ben vs Mike. Head-to-head. Will Mike finally break his losing streak? Will Ben’s dominance crumble? Is Jake enjoying this a bit too much? There’s only one way to find out. 🎧 Hit play. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
