    Recovery Tips for Runners | How to Recover Faster, Run Better and Avoid Burnout | Idiots Go Running Podcast

    Recovery is the bit most runners talk about, promise to do properly… and then completely ignore.

    In this episode of Idiots Go Running, we talk all things running recovery — what actually helps, what people overcomplicate, and how to recover better so you can keep training consistently, feel stronger, and avoid running yourself into the ground.

    We cover:

    • Recovery tips for runners

    • Post-run recovery basics

    • Sleep, hydration and fuelling

    • Easy runs and recovery days

    • Stretching, mobility and strength work

    • Sore legs, fatigue and training load

    • What helps after long runs and hard sessions

    • Common recovery mistakes runners make

    If you are training for a marathon, half marathon, ultra marathon, or just trying to stay consistent, this episode is packed with simple, practical advice on how to recover smarter.

    Idiots Go Running is a running podcast hosted by Colin, Andrew and Matt, where running, endurance, big challenges and plenty of nonsense all meet in the middle.

  • S04 E24 350 Ultra Marathon Prop
    Mar 29 2026

    Nick’s got news. Andrew is tapering. Matt is ignoring the fact he’s injured. And Colin is still being controlled by his coach.

    In this episode of Idiots Go Running, the lads are back with more running chat, marathon talk, ultra running nonsense, taper week panic, injury denial, and the kind of coaching dynamics that definitely feel a bit too personal.

    Nick brings the latest update, Andrew delivers a mystery book review with almost no useful clues, Matt continues to run like injuries are optional, and Colin remains firmly under the watchful eye of Coach Nick.

    Expect sarcasm, endurance running chat, training talk, race prep, recovery excuses, marathon mindset, ultra runner nonsense, and the usual lack of professionalism.

  • S04 E23 The Biggest Running Mistakes Experts Have Ever Made
    Mar 23 2026

    In this episode of Idiots Go Running, we ask some of our brilliant running experts to confess their most ridiculous, chaotic, and downright stupid moments from the world of running, marathon training, ultra running, and endurance sport.

    ---

    Featuring Nick — the running coach, Jo — the Greek ultra runner, Sammy — the elite pathfinder, Gerry — the Irish coastal runner, Ashley — MS Runs The US creator, Isaac — ultra marathon runner, Derek — the corn-on-the-cob ultra runner, Alex — Stonehenge 300 mile ultra runner, and Ben — Tough Mudder Ben, this episode is full of funny stories, hard lessons, and proof that even the experts get it badly wrong sometimes.

    From fuelling disasters and wrong turns to race day mistakes, gear failures, pacing errors, and pure endurance madness, this is a funny and honest look at the side of running podcasts people love most — when it all goes a bit off the rails.

    If you are into running podcasts, marathon stories, ultra marathon adventures, endurance training, trail running, and the real side of what it means to be a runner, this one is for you.

    Idiots Go Running is the podcast about running, friendship, endurance, mindset, and trying to learn from people who have already made the mistakes for us.
