About this episode
It’s the Beyond the Track Christmas Special and the season finale, and what starts as a festive chat quickly turns into an investigation… because it turns out Jenny hates Christmas.
After a brief catch-up on Jenny’s recent Valencia Marathon 10K experience, the episode becomes a deep dive into classic Christmas traditions - only for each one to be ruthlessly questioned, rejected, or outright dismissed by Jenny, much to the horror (and amusement) of Harrison and James.
From Christmas dinners and festive films to traditions we all pretend to enjoy, the hosts go back and forth debating what makes Christmas great… and what absolutely doesn’t. Along the way, they also discuss how athletes train over Christmas, how they usually spend the festive period, and whether it’s possible to balance celebrations with staying on track.
Packed with festive banter, playful arguments, and plenty of laughs, this Christmas Special is the perfect way to wrap up the season - even if not everyone’s feeling festive.
