  • Will Anderson: The man behind £10 parkrun - 'Ten pound gear and a good idea'

    Will Anderson: The man behind £10 parkrun - 'Ten pound gear and a good idea'
    2026/08/24

    Will Anderson is no slouch when it comes to running.


    His parkrun PB of 15 minutes and 17 seconds would have most purveyors of the 5k phenomenon reaching for the smelling salts.


    But despite his rapid times, Will isn't afraid to scoot round parkruns riding a hobby horse. Or a beanie hat.


    Or, indeed, a thick jumper and woollen trousers at the height of one of the hottest summers the UK has ever seen.


    That's because Will is the man behind the new Instagram channel, 10poundparkrun, a project which combines the Saturday morning 5k with dubious running gear.


    Will's plan is to raise money for charity while enjoying his weekly run. He came up with the idea of spending £10 in a charity shop each week to buy that weekend's running outfit (shoes excluded!).


    The more people who take part each week, the more money is taken home by various charities across the country. It's a simple and fun idea which has the power to change lives without the sometime pressure of fundraising for major events.


    In this episode of Running Tales, we spoke to Will about how he came up with the idea, the costumes he's worn so far, and whether his new clothing regime has slowed him down...


    More about £10 parkrun


    Will's slogan for £10 parkrun is '£10 gear and a good idea'. You can become part of that idea by following him on Instagram and letting him know about your own charity shop/parkrun adventures: https://www.instagram.com/10poundparkrun/

  • Joshua Schofield: PGC1-Coaching founder on racing Jacob Kiplimo and the basics every runner should master

    Joshua Schofield: PGC1-Coaching founder on racing Jacob Kiplimo and the basics every runner should master
    2026/07/27

    Joshua Schofield is a former sub-elite road, track and cross-country runner, who represented England as a Junior Male and for the North of England as a Senior Male.


    Josh originally competed in triathlon before finding success as a runner, but it is working as a coach which has defined his place in the running world.


    Josh's achievements include coaching at the Loughborough Talent Hub, working with athletes who were training for England and at The Commonwealth Games, and becoming an England Athletics Talented Coach Mentor.


    But his biggest success came in 2019 when he formed PGC1-Coaching, originally to help him get through his Master's Degree.


    Since then, more than 250 athletes from three continents have been coached at PGC-1 and the club has attracted a host of top level coaches.


    In this episode of Running Tales, we spoke to Josh about racing against Jacob Kiplimo, how coaching became his life, and the basics every runner should master...

  • Bob Bell-Johnson: How running helped one man come to terms with the pain of grief

    Bob Bell-Johnson: How running helped one man come to terms with the pain of grief
    2026/07/13
    For Bob Bell-Johnson, running is not simply about fitness. It is thinking time.The 39-year-old, from Whaley Bridge in Derbyshire, is training to become a personal trainer, a major career change after a long and complicated journey with his physical and mental health.Bob was born with a club foot, which required surgery when he was young and left his lower left leg permanently weaker. Later, he faced serious back problems, including major spinal surgery in 2013 for cauda equina syndrome. After that operation, he used walking sticks for two years. So running was never the obvious path. As Bob puts it: "Me and running is like eating chocolate with gravy. It can be done but it is not great."But running has given Bob something he describes as essential: space to think. It has become a way to process grief, rebuild his confidence and take care of his mental health.Bob was 18 when his mother, Liz, told him she had been diagnosed with sarcoma, a rare type of cancer. She died just over a year later, in November 2005, aged 53.Liz was outgoing, joyful and deeply present in Bob's life. He remembers dancing around the kitchen with her to Dire Straits, and seeing her in the audience when he played bass in teenage bands.Losing her at such a pivotal age left a lasting mark. For many years, Bob buried the grief. He has spoken openly about struggling with depression and using alcohol to cope. More recently, he stopped drinking and found in running a healthier way to process what had happened.This year, Bob ran the London Marathon for Sarcoma UK. For him, it was not just a physical challenge. It was a way to honour his mum, support others affected by sarcoma and turn reflection into action.In this episode of Running Tales, Bob talks about grief, running, sobriety, mental health and why being able to run feels like a privilege...What is sarcoma?Sarcoma is a rare cancer that can affect bone or soft tissue, including muscle, fat, nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue.Because these tissues are found throughout the body, sarcoma can appear almost anywhere. There are more than 100 different subtypes, which means people's experiences can vary widely.Some people first notice a lump. Others may have pain, swelling or symptoms that are harder to explain. Because sarcoma is rare and often little-known, diagnosis can sometimes take longer than it should.Sarcoma does not only affect the person who is diagnosed. It can affect partners, children, parents, friends and wider families. For people like Bob, the impact of sarcoma continues long after someone they love has died.About Sarcoma UKSarcoma UK is the national charity for anyone affected by sarcoma.The charity funds research, provides information and support, campaigns for better treatment, and works to improve awareness and earlier diagnosis.Sarcoma UK's Support Line is staffed by healthcare professionals and is available for people with sarcoma, family members, friends, carers and healthcare professionals.You can find out more about sarcoma, Sarcoma Awareness Month and Sarcoma UK's support services at sarcoma.org.uk.
