  • The WARP overlords survive their debut episode, however the dads struggled to get going this week in their training (are they crumbling under the podcast pressure?)

    We recap the 2024 Freo Running Festival and WA performances at the New York Marathon last week.

    We interview Shane Johnstone as entries to 2025 Transcend open this Friday at 10am.

    We'll do the usual WARP admin and answer the important questions like if Chris takes pride in beating a 15 year old in a 5,000m race.
