We’re back for 2026 as Chris & Simon discuss their festive season adventures, and what’s in store for 2026 that includes Chris transcending in the 65km solo in August and Simon joining Vici, Bryan Bourke, Sarah Paduano and Ashlee Ritson to hopefully take out the mixed team relay.

In local results we had the WAMC Parlouf Relay on Boxing Day with Simon leting his teammate down, Strive Program A with the 1500m (and a new World Lead) and PTS Summer Series Wallygrunta.

We have our next Community Run with Bix on the 31st Jan. Claire Franklin, Ambrose Foley, Kate Timmons, Adam Howarth and all runners in the 24 parkruns in 24 hours are this week’s Weapons of WARP.

It's Simon, Chris and Vici with an end-of-year wrap up where we take a breath and look back at our year in running. The PBs, the blow-ups, and all the brilliant people who make this community what it is. Today we’re keeping it simple: a few reflections, a few stories, and probably a few things we’ll regret saying in January. Settle in and let’s look back at the year that was.

In local results we had the 6 Inch Trail Marathon that featured all of Vici’s mates it seems along with the Strive Program that had the 800m and 5,000m. Is Daddy Track Star dead following Simon’s shocker of a run on Friday night?

Matt Neves, Glen Smith, James Payne and Shaun Hall feature in this week’s Weapons of WARP as we discuss nominees for Weapon of the Year.

We chat to Bryan Bourke, an all-round nice guy, loves to tackle the next big challenge, is a 0-time NBA All-star according to his Instagram bio, arguably the most avid WARP listener, and officially/unofficially a Jägermeister sponsored athlete.

In local results we had the WAMC Founders City Beach Xmas Cup and WA runners who ran Zatopek over the weekend.

Liam Kamudu, Eoin Smyth, Perth Pub Runners and Craigs Cans are this week’s Weapons of WARP

On what has been a horrific and tragic Sunday in Sydney over the weekend, we hope talking shit for an hour gives you a bit of relief.
