Adam Didyk is the Athletics Australia Pathways Transition Lead, Australian Olympic Team Coach (Athletics - Endurance) Tokyo 2021, SA Performance Advisor, a husband and a father among many other things. 

In this conversation, Adam gave us a deep insight into his journey as a coach and the things that he has learnt along the way. He shares his beliefs around ensuring his athletes are well-rounded on and off the track through a holistic approach to not only training but their careers and family life. 

Adam opens up about his experience with Jess Stenson (née Trengove) leading up to the recent 2022 Commonwealth Games where Jess won Gold in the Marathon. He shares the details of why they work so well together and how a few words that he shared moments before the race helped her get through.

We also discuss what you should look for when seeking out a coach, and how for Adam, it is much more about building a trusting relationship than simply writing a program.
