After college athletics ended, Faith felt the identity loss so many runners know “there’s a moment where you almost lose your identity after collegiate sports” . But one marathon changed everything.

In this episode, we explore a journey built on joy, grit, and connection from sprinting the 400m in college to discovering the mental strength needed for 26.2. From running her first marathon hand‑in‑hand with her dad to qualifying for Boston by just five seconds. From getting lost on the Iceland volcano course to finding confidence again on the streets of Boston.

Faith shares how running became her way to inspire others “if I’m able to inspire one person, I’m happy with that” and why chasing a marathon in every state (and a sub‑3:20) is the next big dream.

If you love stories about resilience, family, and the magic of the running community, this one will stay with you long after the run is over.

Simone Carniglia joins the show from Italy with a remarkable story of resilience and precision. In just seven years, he’s gone from recovering after surgery and weighing nearly 130kg to becoming the world record holder for the fastest person with Type 1 Diabetes to complete all six and all seven World Major Marathons.

In this week’s episode we sit down with Will an inspiring runner whose journey began in the wake of personal loss and has grown into something extraordinary. From raising over $25,000 for MND through his first ultra, to qualifying for Boston with a blistering 2:47 at Canberra, Will’s story is one of resilience, family, and sheer determination. Now, he’s chasing history as the youngest Australian to run all seven World Marathon Majors in a single year. We talk about his beginnings, the emotional drive behind his challenges, and his first major of the year where we met at Tokyo Marathon.

This is more than a running story it’s about purpose, grit, and the power of chasing something bigger than yourself.

This week, we’re joined by Cooper from Aletheia Run, the groundbreaking wearable that measures motion directly from your center of mass giving runners a clearer picture of their form than ever before.

Cooper breaks down why most runners never see the real breakdowns happening in their stride, how center‑of‑mass data changes the game, and what you can actually do with that insight. We dive into smarter training, better movement patterns, injury prevention, and the small daily habits that make a huge difference over time.

If you’ve ever wondered what’s really happening beneath the surface of your run or how to train with more intention, efficiency, and longevity this conversation will shift the way you think about your body and your stride.

This week, we sit down to unpack our Tokyo Marathon experience a race that meant more to us than we ever expected. For Clara, it was the dream she’d carried for years. For both of us, it became the day everything clicked. We talk about the electric energy of Tokyo, the kindness of the Japanese people, the moments that pushed us, the moments that lifted us, and how we both crossed the line with PBs we’ll never forget. It’s a story about dreams realised, goals smashed, and a city that gave us everything.

A raw, human, runner‑to‑runner snapshot of Jack’s unbelievable journey. In this episode, he shares how a simple COVID run spiraled into some of the most extreme challenges imaginable—50km every day for 50 days, then 100km every day for 100 days—all in the name of mental‑health awareness. Jack opens up about why he runs, how community keeps him going, and the power of starting real conversations while moving side by side.
