In this second Marathon Special of the Fit for Business and Life podcast, Martin Sharp shares the experience of completing his second of three marathons in just two weeks: the Milton Keynes Marathon with co-host Dominic Furness. Following the excitement and record-breaking energy of London, Martin dives into what it took to recover, re-focus, and run again, all while raising money for Teenage Cancer Trust.

This episode is packed with performance insights, personal stories, and practical tips for busy professionals aiming to push their physical and mental limits through endurance challenges. Whether you're an amateur runner, seasoned athlete, or simply love hearing how people test their limits, this one delivers.

What to expect in this episode:

• The transition from London to Milton Keynes Marathon: fatigue, recovery, and mindset

• How active recovery plays a role in back-to-back marathons

• Nutrition, hydration and supplement tweaks for better performance

• The power of a personalised fueling strategy (featuring jelly babies, gels, and crisps!)

• Crowd atmosphere and support stories from the day

• Lessons learned from marathon #2 and how it impacts Martin's strategy for Leeds

• Reflections on progress, motivation, and redefining personal bests

Martin also reflects on the bigger picture behind his "Couch to 3 marathons in 14 months" challenge, raising money and awareness for Teenage Cancer Trust.
