For The Kudos episodes

February 28, 2024 For The Kudos - #87
Episode #87 begins with a ridiculous chat surrounding the common fish-related phrase "good-eating" before FTK's usual round-up of what's dropped on Patreon. In the past week we've had Chasing Paris, LLL&R, Hot Takes and the usual early-release access to both FTK and Spiked Up. Brett & Joel remind the listeners about our first FTK Sydney Marathon Long Run this Sunday the 3rd of March in Melbourne - be sure to register for free at the link in our bio.

As for training weeks Brett brings the listeners up to speed on his energy levels and gives insight on to why he think it's necessary for his body to rest. Joel lays down a solid week of training as he prepares for his first race in a long time - World XC Trials (in Canberra this Friday). The episode closes out with everyone's favourite TWHSOITWTWATSA segment.

February 22, 2024 For The Kudos - #86
Joel decided to leave in his horrid attempt at an episode introduction to remind the listeners that even after 85 episodes - he still messes it up! Once they find their groove Brett & Joel share the news of Phil Sesemann's 2:08:04 in Seville Marathon over the weekend (hear all about it from the man himself on this week's Patreon-only Chasing Paris UK episode). Brett & Joel then share more details about the upcoming Spiked Up podcast from Rose Davies and Sarah Billings, before taking the listeners through their training weeks. Joel lays down a solid week and Brett recaps his race at Run The Bridge in detail, giving insight into the reasons behind his disappointing performance.

January 31, 2024 Brooke Feldmeier - #83
Episode #83 kicks off with all the regular FTK "Friend Of The Show" housekeeping before reminding the listeners to use the password FTK for a discount on Maurie Plant Meet tickets.

January 17, 2024 Tim Vincent - #81
Episode #81 could be one of FTK's longest ever. With Brett recording from Falls Creek and Joel from Box Hill the two kick the episode off announcing their partnership with Athletics Australia's Maurie Plant Meet which will be held in Melbourne on February 15th. They then discuss Patreon's new Chasing Paris UK series before secretly announcing the special guest for the upcoming live show at Runners Paradise on February 19th (tickets will be on sale next week). Brett & Joel cover some highlight performances over the weekend (shout-out to Pat Tiernan) before taking the listeners through their training weeks.

Riley chats with Brisbane based marathoner Tim Vincent. The interview starts off horribly when Riley incorrectly assumes Tim is from the Gold Coast. From there, the boys smooth things out and talk about Tim's 2023 season - firstly his 2:17 marathon debut on the Gold Coast, then his 2:12 follow up in Kobe, Japan. Tim shares his unconventional build up to Kobe, and his outlook on what 2024 might hold for him. Finally, Tim shares his love of the round ball game.

January 14, 2024 Chasing Paris UK - #01
Phil gets straight into the oven with some big sessions in Kenya, as he only has around 5 weeks to Seville. Marc talks about the many adjustments in Kenya; not just the running, but dietary changes, weather, and altitude. Phil gives us some insight into how the training setup works in Kenya, and the luxury of the ‘matatu’ - the fuelling vans you often see driving alongside groups of runners. They’re a double edged sword - you can hop in at any point if you’re feeling tired, but if you get dropped, it’s not waiting for you. Marc also gives some insight into joining his NN teammates in camp under Patrick Sang and how he made the decision not to do the marathon block there.

The question for our listeners - does 15 miles constitute a long run?

Please note this is the last episode that will be aired across our free-to-listen network, with all future episodes accessible only via Patreon.
