This episode is brought to you by Sarah and Simon. Sarah takes her Wilson to a new high, while Simon watches his reindex fly.

Ever wonder how someone goes from leading a sedentary lifestyle to conquering marathon after marathon? An interview with athlete Peita Hillman explains just that.

There are roving reports from Ottawa-Carleton Trailway (opens in a new tab), Donaupark (opens in a new tab) and Māngere Bridge (opens in a new tab) parkruns and all the regulars, including Dazzas, Reginald and launches aplenty.

Discussion then turns to how close Christmas is and how things are going with the Christmas shopping. Is that jingle bells we hear?
