Dean sits down with arguably Australia's most versatile athlete, Australian 10k road (30:44) and Half-Marathon (67:17) record holder, Izzi Batt-Doyle. With PB's ranging from 14:49 in the 5000 to 2:22:59 in the Marathon, Izzi can do it all.

Izzi is infamous for her 200km weeks with ruthless output and consistency, often supplementing her training with multiple gym and pilates session too. But Dean pulls back the curtain and digs a little deeper to find out what came before, what set all of this up.

Dean and Izzi chat about her life in the collegiate system in the USA, her transition back to Australian Athletics, competing priorities between track and the road, where her future goals are and how she has managed to turn a hobby into a career/lifestyle being multiple business owner in the running industry too.

Having represented Australia over 5000m in the 2024 Paris Olympic games, Izzi gives a fantastic insight into what life is really like as a professional athlete.
