Welcome back!

In part 1 of our special 4 part series of Diary Of A Big Lad, Chade takes us through ‘Sublime 23’, his new project being beating his personal best on a 5k run.

Chade’s given himself 11 weeks to shave the time off and here he goes through the changes he's making since setting his previous record, and what tech/clothing he’s used to give himself the edge.

Hopefully it’ll help you achieve the same, and if you’re not yet interesting in running for fitness, hopefully you’ll enjoy Chade chatting through a topic a little more specific than the usual episode.

Chade also explains what 'Sublime 23' actually means.

For inspiration or just to follow Chade's progress dating back the last 9 or so weeks, check out his Social Media pages below as always.

BUNION WARNING! BUNIONS ARE MENTIONED!

‘Diary Of A Big Lad’ is an Osborne Road Production featuring Chade O’Brien and Nico Diodoro. Theme tune written and performed by Jay Stevens.

In this very special Bonus Episode, Chade speaks to the great Tom Barkham!

A man of many talents, Tom has boxed, completed many a Swindon Santa Run (worth Googling!), competed in everything from darts, to food challenges, to boxing and can be frequently seen up and down the country around the UK MC’ng various boxing events!! Here today, he’s on possibly his most important quest yet, with his official attempt at breaking the Guiness World Record for scoring The Most Points Accumulated Over 12 Hours!

Tom talks about the challenge itself, his tactics, how he stays motivated and what you can expect to see on the day! Most importantly though, Tom discusses why he’s doing it, to raise money for The Prospect Hospice in Swindon. If you’d like to give money to a great cause the link can be found here: Just Giving Page For Prospect Hospice.

There's also raffle with plenty of prizes donated from local businesses up for grabs you'll want to get involved with for sure!

If you’ve found this episode after the event though, it’s still worth a listen as Tom goes into how he’s prepared for this challenge, how you can rise to a challenge of your own for a good cause and (most importantly for Chade) how he fits it in around working full time and being a Dad.

Details about the event:

• Date: 12 April 2025
• Time: 11AM - 11PM
• Venue: The Carters Rest, Wroughton, SN4 9JU
• The Challenge: Most Points Accumulatively Scored In Darts Over 12 hours

Also discussed: The RAFs opinion on whether darts is a ‘sport or a ‘game’? How many darts wll Tom actually have to throw?! What was Wroughton once voted the best village in EUROPE for?! It’s all here, have a listen!
