We are bouncing along in our season of unpredicatability just fine, this week we're being purposely predictable though! Just to twist your melons eh.

Joining the fray for a chat is Dougle Selman, the men's 100k winner at the 2024 Anglo Celtic Plate 100k. He's a fella with running in his DNA.

We find out how he's moved through the distances from track to road before making the leap to ultra marathon in 2023.

With running a way of life for Dougie this blether allows us to home in on how he's taken his track speed, added endurance and found himself at the top of the tree in the 100k distance.

We make no apology of covering his glory run on the North Inch, Perth in detail. We're fascinated with the answers Dougie responds with, particularly a blow by blow account of hie final lap. That'll go down in history that one, high octane stuff!

With the aftermath still settling down we get Dougie's thoughts on making the grade for Team GB's 100k squad at the World Champs in India later this year.

And should podiums in other ultras feel threatened, is Selman ready to batter some other races? We find out in 'What's next for Dougie'

And it's not til the very end of the show that Dougie lets us in on his big secret! What could that be then?
