In this weeks training updates, Chris hits his easter workouts fuelled with hot cross buns and chocolate, as he hangs onto his training partner Anna over a 'Westcott Fartlek" before catching up with Run Culture / Owls Head Coach and good friend of the show Dane Verwey after he found his way to the finish line at the Shepparton Parkrun.

Meanwhile Zacca heads back to the Yarra Boulevard for a traditional 3 x 8min workout, rounding out his week with a long run and getting some decent mileage in the legs. He also details his 2 x 3k workout on the elevated Melb Uni Track with a big training group as he gears up for the time trial/selection race, before Chris suggests a handicap format for the Jells Park season opener

Run2PB Coach and Elite Athlete James Hansen, returns to the show for a catch up, recapping his huge summer season that included a massive 5k P.B at the National Championships finishing 5th, despite overcoming a raft of health and personal issues. He talks about how he kept believing through some very challenging times and acknowledges some people in his circle that have helped him navigate through the past year. James talks about his plans for the rest of the year which include a hot lap of the Tan before a block to keep pursuing a fast track time potentially overseas. James rounds out the chat with an update on some of his athletes he is coaching.

Zacca and Chris, discuss some fantastic results over at the Boston Marathon from some run2pb legends, before Chris proposes adding a 7th Marathon to the majors list.
