EP 16 - THE TOUGHEST THREE ATHLETES I’VE TRAINED WITH


Listen Later

We kick off with a quick look at a Birkenstock map of Sydney—though, oddly, no mention of Crocs?

We’ve got some great listener feedback on GPS watches this week, plus a shout-out to a few of the running resolutions sent in for 2025.

Liam's Updates: Liam fills us in on the progress of his new breakfast radio show, and when locals can tune in.

Courtney's Recap: Courtney talks about joining the ‘Gold Coast Run Co’ on New Year's Eve for their annual tough 25 x 400m session. This got him thinking about the three hardest athletes he’s ever trained with.

This week's WTF Segment covers backward marathons, triathlons with dogs, and trail running paired with whiskey.

Closing Thoughts: We wrap up by discussing a running philosophy by Mario Fraioli that really resonated with Courtney—sticking to the fundamentals vs trying to get fancy with your training.
