  • Roaming Free Podcast: – Episode 11 - From Diagnosis to Destinations: Kevin Webber’s Inspirational Ultramarathon of Life
    Aug 29 2025

    In this powerful and emotional episode of the Roaming Free Podcast, hosts Ian Henderson and Steve Fleming sit down with the incredible Kevin Webber — an endurance runner, motivational speaker, and fundraiser who has raised over £1 million for Prostate Cancer UK since his diagnosis in 2014. Now living with stage 4 cancer, Kevin shares his extraordinary journey of resilience, purpose, and pushing the limits of what’s possible.

    From completing ultramarathons across the globe to receiving the British Empire Medal on the Queen’s Birthday Honours List, Kevin’s story is a testament to courage, hope, and living life without regrets. We discuss his philosophy on life, reflected in his powerful quote: “You only have two lives, and the second one starts when you realise you only have one.” We also explore inspiration drawn from Julian Lennon’s song Saltwater“What will I think of me the day I die?” — a line that fuels Kevin’s passion for making every moment count.

    This episode is more than a conversation about running; it’s about embracing life, giving back, and inspiring others to step outside, challenge themselves, and support meaningful causes.

    If you’ve ever needed motivation to get outdoors, take action, or simply appreciate the present moment, Kevin’s story will stay with you long after the episode ends.

  • Roaming Free Podcast - Episode 9 – "Lost Without Signal: The Great Map Debate!"
    Aug 1 2025

    In this fun and light-hearted episode of Roaming Free, Steve Fleming and Ian Henderson dive into the world of navigation – old school vs new tech. From the trusty compass and paper maps that never run out of battery, to the convenience (and occasional chaos) of digital tools like the OS Maps app, they explore the pros and cons of both worlds.


    The duo champion the underrated life skill of being able to read a map – from understanding contours and grid references to spotting features you’d miss on a screen. They chat about how this essential skill builds confidence, boosts situational awareness, and keeps you safe when the tech fails.


    There’s friendly banter, a few tales of getting hilariously lost, and a cheeky comparison of Harvey Maps versus Ordnance Survey. Whether you're a digital die-hard or a map-and-compass purist, this episode will help you find your way.
