Matt is joined with Michel Haenggi to interview ultra-marathon runner Scotty Hawker.

The International Trail Running Association rates Scotty in the top 6 of NZ trail runners. Scott completed his first marathon when he was just 17, since then he is a regular top 5 finisher in 100km races around the world.

As a Coach for Mile 27, Scotty shares a lot of knowledge and advice in this interview to anyone interested in improving their performance. Below is a snapshot of his results.
