What it is
The podcast of the shoe and gear review site Believe in the Run. The main episodes mix first impressions of new road shoes with race-weekend trips, running news and a lot of off-topic banter, while The Dirt Division covers trail shoes and gear. It suits runners who want to hear shoes talked through at length before they buy.
Why listen
- Regular talk on new shoes such as the Nike Alphafly 4 and Adidas Adios Pro 5, plus picks for the most overrated and underrated shoes of the year.
- Interviews with people inside running brands, for example Tracksmith's CEO and product chief.
- A separate trail strand (The Dirt Division) on trail shoe trends, packs and belts and how shoes are developed.
