In this week's episode of the Better with Running podcast, we dive into the excitement of Melbourne Marathon week. Hosts Chris and Zacca bring you a jam-packed show with two incredible guests.

First up is the impressive Run2PB athlete, Laura Salamito. Since joining in 2019 and teaming up with Gemma Maini, Laura has made remarkable progress in her 5K, 10K, and half marathon times. As she gears up for the Melbourne Marathon, Laura shares her running journey, favorite training sessions leading up to the race, insights from her coach, and takes on Chris's quickfire questions.

Next, we welcome back the running  nuffie  and media sensation, Mitch Dyer from "Straightatit" (https://www.instagram.com/straightatit_/). Mitch takes us behind the scenes of his recent European campaign, covering events like the Diamond Leagues and World Championships. He also reflects on his experiences as a media presenter. We delve into the incredible feat of Kelvin Kiptum's mind-blowing 2:00:35 World Record in Chicago, with Mitch providing his reaction. This discussion naturally segues into a conversation about doping in sports and potential solutions.

Wrapping up the show, we have a  "Around the Grounds" segment featuring some phenomenal personal bests achieved by Run2PB athletes.
