Story-based running podcast

July 7, 2011 10:53 AM

I'm looking for a podcast that uses fictional plot points to motivate running.

I thought I saw a podcast mentioned on here or on the blue that consisted of long stories for runners. I haven't actually listened to the podcast, but from the description that I remember, the stories are built around motivating scenes (e.g. a chase scene or an escape) that allow for a subtle sort of interval training. I can't seem to find it now, and I hope I'm not imagining this whole thing. Any ideas of where I could find a podcast like this?

Response by poster: Found it! I couldn't find it here because I had originally seen it on reddit. I forgot that they are embedded in Adidas ads (sorry), but I am still going to try them out. If anyone knows of other similar podcasts, I'd still love to have your recommendations!

Although that is more of an interactive storytelling app game thing, with achievements for running certain distances...etc.
