Welcome to this special series of preview podcasts to celebrate the Night of the 10,000m PB’s return. 
In our final episode of this preview series, I took a trip to Zurich to learn more about headline partner On running's brand new European Athletic and speak with George Mills who is taking on the Emsley Carr Mile on May 14th and spend some time with On co-founder Olivier Bernhard.
George's fellow OAC members include: Cari Hughes – a fellow Brit who has a 1500m best of 4:16.19, Tom Elmer – multiple Swiss 1500m champion with a best of 3:37.84, Noah Baltus – Dutch under-20 champion with a 3:41.69 PB. , Marta Garcia – a 4:08.43 1500m runner from Spain who is combining athletics with medical studies, Fabiane Meyer – still only 19, the German was fifth in last year’s European under-20 women’s 1500m final.
After a track session with OAC head coach Thomas Dreißigacker, we had a chance to learn more from the founders and have some time with the athletes. 
Have a listen to join me on this day trip to Switzerland to find out more.

With the support of Like The Wind Magazine and Select Imagery from Curated for Runners.  Like the Wind is an independent journal telling stories about running. Since issue 1, Like the Wind has been published quarterly, with 31 issues under its belt. It is sold mainly through subscriptions, to readers in 40 countries. The strapline of the magazine is: it’s why we run (not how to run) and so there are no product reviews, training plans or nutrition tips. Instead, Like the Wind explores topics such as the environment, social issues (like racism or gender inequality), mental health and – quite often – the simple joy of running. Like the Wind will be producing a special edition programme for Night of the 10,000m PB's for all attendees to the event on May 14th  Like the Wind can be found at www.likethewindmagazine.com where people can subscribe and on Instagram and Twitter as @likethewindmag. --------
