Description
Subscriber-only episodeE249: ?️ Welcome back, Plus Member, to another rejuvenating Sunday bonus episode of The English Like a Native Podcast. As we're about to embark on a new week, let's reflect on the recent London Marathon and explore the allure of pushing one's limits.?♂️ Join me as I reminisce about my fleeting dreams of marathon glory, together with the reality of aging joints. Despite my limitations, I recall a time of peak fitness amidst the vast expanse of the sea, where each lap around the ship's deck felt like a dance with the midnight sun. We also delve into the highlights of this year's London Marathon, from record-breaking charitable contributions to quirky feats of fancy dress. ? And I explore the meanings behind three idioms with 'run': "hitting the ground running," "running out of steam," and "in the long run," weaving threads of wisdom into our daily lexicon.⭐ ENGLISH LIKE A NATIVE PLUS ⭐Join English Like A Native Plus - a membership allowing you to access the bonus episodes, plus a weekly email with the most recent podcasts' transcript.
