Marathon State of Mind

Izzi Batt-Doyle: Running My Own Race | The Power of Consistency, Passion & Authenticity


Listen Later

In this episode we are joined by Izzi Batt-Doyle. Izzi is a two-time Olympian, the current Australian record holder in the Half Marathon (67:17) and 10km road (31:12), and the third fastest Australian woman ever over the marathon (2:22:59).

But Izzi’s story is about much more than fast times.

From growing up in Adelaide, to chasing opportunity through college running in the U.S., to competing at two Olympic Games, Izzi’s path has been shaped by something deeper than performance: a commitment to living an extraordinary and authentic life.

In this conversation, Izzi shares:

  • The experience that changed everything — a trip to India at 16 that opened her eyes to a bigger world and sparked the belief that her life could be more.
  • Why her definition of success has nothing to do with comparison — and everything to do with attitude, effort, and joy.
  • How passion fuels resilience — and why loving the process matters more than the result.
  • How she has developed the confidence to run to her strengths and find out what's possible.
  • How three core values she wrote down almost ten years ago continue to shape her running and life.
  • The exciting opportunities that await.
  • With an honours degree in Psychology, Izzi blends science with lived experience. Her approach is a masterclass in staying grounded while pursuing personal excellence.

    If you care about performance, fulfilment, and doing what you love with authenticity, this episode will stay with you.
