Running Matters

Ep 61- Courtney Atkinson- Dual Olympian Triathlete and Trail Runner


Listen Later

Courtney Atkinson is one of the very best triathletes Australia has ever produced. He's a dual Olympian and a multiple ITU race champion. Since retiring from triathlon he has lit up the trail running world with more spectacular results, most recently winning the 2019 Six Foot Track marathon. 

In Ep 61 of Running Matters Wolf and Haddy chat with Courtney and pull apart the components that make him such a legend. We discuss his globetrotting adventures as a Red Bull ambassador and the most amazing trails that Australia has to offer. 

Courtney imparts some tremendous advice on keeping things simple and how to maintain the hunger for achievement.

We also catch up with Ali Najeem who recently competed in the Wings for Life App World Run, Ali was the fastest Australian and finished 15th in the world! He talks about his preparation for the big event.

It was a real honour to talk with these two champions of Aussie sport. I hope you appreciate it as much as we did!
