In this heartfelt episode of RunPod, Jenni is joined by Emmerdale’s Tony Audenshaw- actor, passionate runner, and proud marathoner with more than a few fancy-dress records to his name.

Tony shares the story of how running transformed his life- from struggling through his first marathon to chasing sub-three-hour times, tackling ultramarathons, and finding joy on the trails. He opens up about his late wife Ruth, their shared love of running, and how he honoured her memory at this year’s London Marathon while raising vital funds for pancreatic cancer research.

From the camaraderie of running clubs to the quiet strength found on Peak District trails, Tony reflects on resilience, ageing, injury, and the simple magic of putting one foot in front of the other.

Whether you’re chasing PBs, starting Couch to 5K, or just need a reminder of the joy running can bring, this is an uplifting conversation about community, perseverance, and the miles that shape us.
