The lads also digress and go off topic on some random things including dodgy haircuts, the most bizarre ways you've used running as a means of transport amongst other tangents..

Easy Double podcast
@easydoublepod is a running podcast hosted by Ryan, Dean and Eoin. We all come from very different backgrounds but have ended up as training partners in Perth, Australia.
Generally we talk about running a bit too much, whether that be shoes, nutrition, training, performances, conspiracy theories or just poking fun at each other. Our long runs often take us down some rabbit holes and we thought it could be both insightful and humorous to explore some of these on a podcast.
We try not to take ourselves too seriously, contrary to our approach to training.
Welcome to the Easy Double Club.
