#21 - Tom Dixon on Adventure Races, 38 min 10ks and nutrition for endurance


Listen Later

After getting the itch for interviewing last week, we continue a mini-series of Eric interviewing people as he interviews another friend and running influence from his profession, Tom Dixon.

Eric and Tom have competed in a lot of endurance events over their past 4 year friendship and have helped push each other to reach new heights in their running goals.

In this episode, they talk about:

 - Tom's unique introduction to endurance training
 - How he built up his endurance from struggling to do a 2.2k to a 38 minute 10k
 - Finding ways to run on days you feel very unmotivated to
 - From GAA to Sea to Summit and Glendalough Adventure Races
 - The "gulity confession" behind Eric and Tom doing their first Triathlon on the last June Bank Holiday

The lads spend the last 10 minutes talking about diets with endurance running and what Tom finds works for him before Eric hinting at a Half Ironman challenge with Tom in the next few weeks.
