1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:04,760
Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nation down to the j and a

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 1: arms for the pub test. Today, running clubs doesn't pass

3
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:09,239
Speaker 1: the pub test.

4
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 2: We're talking about running clubs first of all, in the

5
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 2: context of them being the new dating sites. I don't

6
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,319
Speaker 2: think many weren't anywhere worse to meet someone. You've got

7
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 2: the literal hots for beetrooted, face, wobbly bits hanging out.

8
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 3: And then there's there's party choices running club.

9
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 2: But they're upright, and I think that's a nice thing.

10
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 2: But running clubs in general, these community groups have sprung

11
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 2: up all over the place. There's one that runs near me,

12
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 2: and that's great. That comes out of a gym not

13
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 2: far from where I am. I don't mind that adult.

14
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,479
Speaker 2: It's great seeing people out and about being fit. But

15
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 2: part of the walk that I do on a Saturday

16
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:46,480
Speaker 2: and Sunday morning is along a narrow path and there's

17
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 2: twenty runners excuse me, excuse me, excuse me, excuse me,

18
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 2: coming past, and you have to stand. You can't all

19
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 2: share the path. You have to squish over to the side,

20
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 2: and it's like this enormous charm bracelet comes right past

21
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 2: you and the dog and I squish right over to

22
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 2: the side. It seems to be everywhere as well.

23
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: You could be going up Everest in a running club

24
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: will go pass you go in the Coda track there's

25
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: a running club going.

26
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, and if you've got space around you, maybe that's

27
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 2: one thing. But I turned around to win home. I

28
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 2: just thought, this is taking everything that I need and

29
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 2: want from my walk away. Really, running clubs do they

30
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 2: pass the pub test?

31
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 1: Look, they do pass a pub test.

32
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 2: I was out on a walk the other day and

33
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 2: they must have been five hundred people.

34
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 4: I mean, I like people watching, but they.

35
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 1: Were just taking over the path.

36
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 4: They were getting in people's way. Dogs gaff and get

37
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 4: out of the way.

38
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's a bit annoying. But I suppose if

39
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 3: you've got to meet people.

40
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: That's a way to do it.

41
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm giving them a tick today.

42
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 4: Absolutely not.

43
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 3: I'm one of those people who if I have to

44
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 3: run somewhere, it means I'm not going to be getting

45
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 3: anywhere because I'm not fit enough to do it.

46
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: So running clubs now been married for twenty two years.

47
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: I met my wife's overseas.

48
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 3: I wouldn't meet anyone through a running club, no way. Definitely.

49
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 3: I look at the young kids today and I lack

50
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 3: a lot of social connection. So if they all get

51
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 3: up in the morning and go for a run together,

52
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 3: do something that's fitting, healthy, and connect with other people

53
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 3: their own age. I think it's a wind no.

54
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 4: When you want to buy a house near a airport,

55
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 4: you better put up with the noise of the planes.

56
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 4: So if you want to buy a house anywhere where

57
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 4: people are going to run or walk or whatever, you

58
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 4: have to take all of that into account.

59
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: I can understand where a man that's coming from, but

60
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: what many should do. She should jump on the end

61
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 1: of the line and run with them with the dog,

62
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: you know. And I they don't understand the house you feel.

63
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 2: You know, you understand how I feel because I put

64
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,920
Speaker 2: them all off. Is that what he means you little

65
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 2: shorty shorts hips? And if I
