When Liz Cullen first showed up to parkrun just a few years ago, she never imagined she’d go on to complete more than 150 parkruns, multiple half marathons, and even longer runs.

In this episode, Liz shares her journey from new runner to dedicated member of the Hātea Run Club, and how the running community helped her find purpose, confidence, and lifelong friends along the way.

She opens up about the setbacks too — from injuries and restarts to the mental battles every runner faces — and how she’s learned to stay positive and simply enjoy the run.

Whether you’re a beginner, a parkrun regular, or a long-time club runner, Liz’s story is a reminder that it’s never too late to start, and that progress is built one run at a time.

Running with friends — it’s motivating, social, and occasionally competitive. In this episode, Justin explores the fine line between encouragement and sabotage on a group run. You know the type: the “let’s take it easy” friend who suddenly surges at the hill, or the one who “accidentally” sprints to the finish. Full of laughs and gentle truths, this episode reminds us that running buddies make the miles fly — even if they occasionally make you question your life choices.

In this episode, we sit down with Allan Staite, one of Whangārei’s most consistent and respected runners. Whether it’s track, road, or ultra-distance, Allan has built an extraordinary record of performance across decades — from winning masters 800-metre titles to finishing second in the Sri Chinmoy 50 km ultra in just over four hours.

Allan shares what keeps him motivated year after year, the habits behind his remarkable consistency, and how he balances speed, endurance, and recovery as a masters athlete. We also talk about the local running community, his regular appearances at Whangārei parkrun, and the mindset that helps him stay strong through every stage of training and racing.

It’s an inspiring look at longevity, balance, and the joy of running — from one of Northland’s most quietly driven and enduring athletes.

We trust our GPS watches like loyal running partners — until they betray us. In When GPS Lies, Justin dives into the funny, frustrating world of satellite mischief. Why does your watch think you ran through a lake? Why does your “5K” become 4.87 or 5.32? He explains why GPS isn’t as perfect as we’d like — and why the best measure of a good run isn’t in the numbers, but in the effort. It’s a lighthearted reminder that sometimes, your legs know better than your tech.

In this uplifting episode, we sit down with Ron Crowhurst and Steve Bradley— two remarkable runners from Whangārei whose story embodies courage, community, and connection.

Ron’s journey is one of transformation — from losing weight and achieving outstanding marathon times in his younger years to becoming a driving force in Whangārei’s parkrun community and a dedicated guide with Achilles New Zealand.

Steve, who is vision-impaired, has achieved incredible things and now walks and sometimes runs side-by-side with Ron as his guide. Together, they’ve built a partnership built on trust, humour, and shared determination.

We talk about the challenges and rewards as a guide-athlete team, their shared experiences with Achilles New Zealand, and their recent adventure in Rarotonga, where a 31km walk tested both their resilience and friendship.

It’s a story about believing in each other, pushing beyond limits, and discovering that the most meaningful victories aren’t always about the stopwatch — they’re about the journey, the people beside you, and the community that cheers you on.

You felt like a hero crossing the line — until the race photos dropped. In this laugh-out-loud episode, Justin takes a playful look at the harsh reality of race photography. From the wild mid-stride faces to the bibs hanging half off, he reminds us that every terrible picture tells a story of grit, effort, and triumph. This one’s a celebration of imperfection — because if you look flawless at the finish line, did you really give it your all?

Ever wonder why your sleep just isn’t what it used to be? You’re not alone.
