Streams straight from the publisher. podnod never proxies or re-hosts episode audio.
In this episode of The Chatty Runners, Andre and Dan sit down with Ross — better known as Orange Running Guy — to talk about his incredible journey since taking up running in 2025 to improve his physical and mental health.
From his first parkrun to tackling Endure 24, Ross has embraced the runner lifestyle with honesty, humour and determination. We chat about what it’s like navigating the sport as a self‑described “larger gentleman”, how he’s risen above negative comments, and how he’s built a community that has his back every step of the way.
Sophia pops in for the warm‑up and cool‑down questions, tackling the big debates:
Do you choose trainers based on look and colour?
If you go on holiday… does your running kit come with you?
It’s an episode about resilience, belonging, and the joy of finding your people.
