It’s a big week in the Brunswick East recording studios for episode 135, featuring Jack, our newly crowned Australian record holder for the indoor 5000m. In this episode, we break down his race and training week before diving into our usual segments.

TRAINING WEEKS 

Jack kicks things off by sharing his training week, followed by a breakdown of his race at the BU Terrier DMR Challenge, where he set the new Australian record in the 5000m. Tess and Joel also had strong training weeks as they prepare for their upcoming races.

THE BIG Q

The team discusses a question sent in by an FTK listener - Aaron Bark. Aaron wants to know whether it’s better to split his double-run days by running more in the morning or evening as he transitions into marathon training.

GIVE SOME KUDOS

Joel gives a shout-out to friend of the show, Logan, and his new haircut. Tess recommends visiting Paul, aka The Balanced Runner, to improve your running technique, and Jack gives kudos to indoor tracks.

TWHSOITWTWATSA

Joel kicks things off with a post from his favorite Instagram page. Jack isn’t sure about a track team using olive oil to keep warm, and Tess is skeptical about the recent 3k record set by an 11-year-old—accidentally.
