Welcome to a new episode of The Dad Up Podcast. I'm excited to share another episode with this guest and the exciting journey he is about to embark on this summer. Paris would be Summer Games debut for 27-year-old Calgary-born runner. Rory Linkletter is only the 2nd Canadian to hit the Olympic qualifying standard in the men's marathon for Paris this summer. The 27-year-old set a personal-best time of two hours eight minutes one second at the Sevilla Marathon in Spain. Rory ran nine seconds under the 2:08:10 standard and posted the third-fastest finish all-time among Canadian men behind Cam Levins (2:05.36 and 2:07.09). Rory Linkletter moved from Canada to the United States at age six and became a U.S. citizen in 2020. He holds dual citizenship. Coached by American marathon record holder Ryan Hall, he starred for five years at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, where Rory earned six All-American citations. Rory is a distance runner who first represented Canada internationally at the 2015 IAAF World Cross Country Championships in the U20 division. He subsequently went on to compete at the IAAF World Cross Country Championships in both 2017 and 2019. He finished second in 10,000m at the 2017 NCAA Championships. During his college running career, he earned six All-American citations while competing for Brigham Young University, where he majored in political science and minored in communications. Rory set a new Canadian record at the Houston Half-Marathon in January 2022. Rory lowered Jeff Schiebler's 23-year-old Canadian half-marathon record of 61:28, crossing the finish line in 61:08 for eighth place. However, before he laces up his everyday to train for his upcoming Olympic debut, Rory is a family man with a very supportive wife and two amazing kids. In our conversation, Rory not only shares his journey to get to the Olympic stage, but also how much he loves being a dad. If you would like to learn more about Rory Linkletter, please see the links below in the show notes. Also, don't forget to watch Rory compete in the marathon at the Paris Olympics. Dad Up!

Rory Linkletter is a Canadian marathoner for PUMA. He just ran 2:08:01 at the Seville Marathon to get under the Olympic qualifying standard. He is in a good position to get selected by Athletics Canada for Paris. Canadian record holder Cam Levins has already been selected for the team and assuming no one else runs faster than Rory in the next two months, he'll be set to go to his first Olympics. Rory was a standout runner at BYU and then turned professional in 2019. He spent some time with HOKA NAZ Elite before choosing to leave the team in 2022 and has been working with Ryan Hall in Flagstaff, Arizona. In this episode, you'll hear all about why the training has worked so well. He shares a bit about Ryan's coaching and training philosophy. Plus, I try to start some trash talk between Rory and Conner Mantz or Clayton Young – his former teammates.

Cam Levins joins the Sweat Elite Podcast and shares everything that goes into preparing to win a Major Marathon - in Cam's case the Tokyo Marathon where the Canadian National Record Holder was in the lead at the 40km mark and was just out kicked in the final kilometre. Cam ran the North American Area Record at the Tokyo Marathon - 2:05:36 and feels he has more in him upon reflecting on the race. In this episode Cam shares insights into his training leading into Tokyo - the mileage, strength training, speed work, marathon specific workouts, fuelling (hint: not the usual) and more. -- -- --  This podcast episode is bought to you by HVMN Ketone IQ.  What if you could bottle “runner's high”?

Cameron Levins last sat down with us after a tremendous run at the 2022 World Championship marathon in Eugene. The fourth place finish came as a suprise to many in the running community. Since then Cam has taken another step up the ladder and now holds the Area Record for North America in the marathon, having run 2.05.36 a few weeks back at the Tokyo Marathon.  Cam goes into detail as to how he has been able to progress to now being one of the premier runners in the world. His view on marathon training, strength training, altitude training and weight gain is all discussed in detail. If there is one interview you need to listen to in order to better yourself as a marathoner, this is the one. 

Cam Levins lowered his own Canadian marathon record in Tokyo last weekend, running 2:05:38 and placing a close 5th in a tight finish. This was a massive improvement on his previous record of 2:07:09, set at the World Championships last summer. After Cam broke the Canadian half-marathon record last month he said that he was ready for something special in Tokyo. He's been making history on the Canadian scene, but wants to mix it up with the best marathoners in the world. In this episode we chat about how he's doing just that. Learn more about The Shakeout Podcast and Canadian Running Magazine on our website https://runningmagazine.ca/category/shakeout-podcast/Follow The Shakeout Podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/ShakeoutPodcastInstagram https://www.instagram.com/shakeoutpodcast/ andFacebook https://www.facebook.com/theshakeoutpodcast/Subscribe to our weekly show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-shakeout-podcast/id1224828899243

Are you looking to improve your running game and avoid common mistakes? In this podcast, we'll be discussing the top five lessons we wish we had known sooner when it comes to training and running. Starting with the importance of form and diet, we'll move on to setting realistic goals and sticking to a plan. We'll also dive into the long-term mindset needed for success in distance running, emphasizing the need for patience and understanding the value of rest and injury prevention. Join us as we share our insights and experiences, inspired by the likes of Eliud Kipchoge and Cam Levins, and help you reach your running goals with confidence and efficiency.

"You don't just take fourth at the World Championships randomly. I think I can be one of the best in the world if we continue to improve here. That's what the goal has basically become. It was a dream. Now it's a goal." Cam Levins just smashed the Canadian record in the marathon for the second year in a row, clocking in at an astounding 2:05:36 at the Tokyo Marathon. And get this - that time also breaks the North American record that has stood since 2002. But it's not just the numbers that are impressive. Cam's journey to get here is equally inspiring. At 33 years old, Cam is still pushing himself to new limits, now under the guidance of Jim Finlayson. We explore that relationship and how they connected. We also talk about his training regimen going back to triples and double-threshold training. We dive into his mindset, self-belief and what drives him to keep pushing himself to be the best he can be. Also, if Cam can get into that 2:05 range, what's it gonna take to get an American at that level? Plus, Cam shares what race he's got coming up next.

Last weekend Cam Levins shattered the Canadian half-marathon record running 1:00.18 at the Vancouver First Half. Not only was this a 42 second improvement over the previous record, but Cam did it completely solo, on a challenging course in rough conditions. Cam is racing the Tokyo Marathon on March 5th, and says that this result in Vancouver indicates that he's ready for something really special in a few weeks. In this episode we chat through his race, his goals for Tokyo and beyond, and what it takes to hang with the best in the world. Next, Kate and Maddy cover a plethora of impressive results from the last 2 weeks!  Learn more about The Shakeout Podcast and Canadian Running Magazine on our website https://runningmagazine.ca/category/shakeout-podcast/Follow The Shakeout Podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/ShakeoutPodcastInstagram https://www.instagram.com/shakeoutpodcast/ andFacebook https://www.facebook.com/theshakeoutpodcast/Subscribe to our weekly show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-shakeout-podcast/id122482889924

In this episode, we are joined by Olympic runner Cam Levins who most recently placed 4th at the World Championships in the marathon.

I denne episoden får vi et gjenhør fra vår Breaking Marathon Limits-tid, hvor vi fikk lest de håndskrevne treningsdagbøkene til Grete Waitz. Jack Waitz forteller om treningen som skapte løperlegenden, og vi får artige historier og detaljer fra en tid da haller og trening i sydligere strøk var mindre vanlig. Takket være podcasten Spring Snyggt kan vi også by på en bit av et ferskt intervju med Cam Levins som ble nummer fire i VM i maraton i Eugene. I fjor ble han nummer 72 i OL, så endret han på treningen. Her får du høre hva han gjorde. Ellers diskuterer Kristian og Jann stort og smått fra forrige uke inkludert EM-uttak, en konkurrerende dopingdømt utøver, treningen til Kristian, lytterspørsmål, ukas økt og mye mer.

The 2022 World Athletics Championships wrapped up in Eugene on Sunday, capping off a thrilling 10 days of competition. There were several highlights from our Canadian team, including Cam Levins' brilliant marathon performance. Cam finished 4th in 2:07:10. This was not only a personal best and improvement on his own Canadian record of over 2 minutes, it was also the highest finish ever by a Canadian at the World Championships. In this episode we speak with Cam about the lessons learned from last year's Olympic Games, completely overhauling his training, and why he has long felt that he belongs with the very best runners in the world. Learn more about The Shakeout Podcast and Canadian Running Magazine on our website https://runningmagazine.ca/category/shakeout-podcast/Follow The Shakeout Podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/ShakeoutPodcastInstagram https://www.instagram.com/shakeoutpodcast/ andFacebook https://www.facebook.com/theshakeoutpodcast/Subscribe to our weekly show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-shakeout-podcast/id1224828899243

The interview with Cam Levins begins at 54.14 and ends at 134.17.  Cameron Levins slutade sensationellt fyra vid herrarnas VM-mara nyligen i Eugene. Cam som har varit en löpare av internationell topklass de senaste 10 åren har gjort sig känd som en löpare som springer väldigt mycket mil. I en lång intervju berättar den extremt sympatiska Kanadensaren om hur han ser på mängdträning, hur han har vävt in styrka i sin satsning och om hur mycket snabbhetsträning som krävs för att lyckas på maraton. En intervju ni inte vill missa.

We're now less than 5 weeks out from the start of the Tokyo Olympics. To celebrate we're bringing you a mini-series called The Shakeout Podcast: Olympic-Bound Canadians. Each week we sit down with some of our country's best runners who are, in all likelihood, heading to Tokyo.Each episode will focus on a different event group and sex category. We'll chat about athletes' preparation for the Games, their goals, and other exciting storylines to follow. Our second episode features the men's marathon with Cam Levins, Trevor Hofbauer and Ben Preisner. Tristan Woodfine, who also had Olympic standard in this event appealed his non-selection to the team, but the appeal was rejected last week. This means that our three guests are guaranteed a spot on the Tokyo start line!Learn more about The Shakeout Podcast and Canadian Running Magazine on our website https://runningmagazine.ca/category/shakeout-podcast/Follow The Shakeout Podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/ShakeoutPodcastInstagram https://www.instagram.com/shakeoutpodcast/ andFacebook https://www.facebook.com/theshakeoutpodcast/Subscribe to our weekly show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-shakeout-podcast/id1224828899243

Today's guest on The XC Podcast is Canadian marathon record holder and Hoka One One athlete Cameron Levins. Last week, some would have called the best Canadian athlete without Olympic standard. Then, on Sunday, with just a week remaining in the Olympic marathon qualification period, that changed. Between raindrops and nine time zones away from his residence in Portland Oregon, Levins won the S7 marathon in Loipersdorf, Austria in a time of 2:10:14 - comfortably under Olympic standard of 2:11:30. In this episode the 32-year-old takes Alex Cyr through his latest race in great detail, he shares the wise advice American track star Jenny Simpson gave him back in 2012, and at one point he admits to having a soft spot for Korean dramas.

Each week, two of our contributors or special guests face off in The XC's Top 5 Running Show, dissecting five stories from the week in the world of distance running and track and field. They offer their best and hottest takes to judge Michael Doyle, who rewards them in points. The panelist with the deepest knowledge and hottest takes will emerge from this five-lap sprint of ideas the victor. The prize? We give them the mic atop the podium to tell us something important or exciting they want to share with you. And seven days of bragging rights, of course. We’ll be pushing this show out both as a podcast on The XC’s feed, and as a video on our YouTube and IGTV channels, and be sure to follow us on Twitter for our weekly schedule @thexcorg Our Top 5 topics this week include: Beloved brand Tracksmith gets publicly criticized, and running Twitter responds in force Will North American marathon great Cam Levins qualify for the Tokyo Olympics? An Olympic gold medallist could get banned eight years for being MIA; is the "whereabouts" rule fair? Is this Florida teen the next Usain Bolt? What would you rather: train for a 100-miler or an Ironman? Hosts: Alex Cyr, Andrew Cruickshank, Michael Doyle

Cameron Levins is one of the best marathoners in North America. But at the onset of an Olympic year, he finds himself in an unimaginable situation — Levins has yet to qualify for the Tokyo Games, and he's only got one shot left this spring. Not only that, but his ambitions to run much faster than his Canadian national record of 2:09:25 (run in his debut marathon) have perhaps led him to fail in his three subsequent attempts at the distance. Now, with all three Olympic team spots occupied for the Canadian marathon squad, Levins is forced to do something truly special just to make it back to the Games. Hosts Alex Cyr and Michael Doyle break down Levins career thus far, look at his triumph and struggles in the marathon, and ask pointed questions about the extraordinarily gifted and ambitious marathoner's performances, his options for locking up a spot on the Tokyo start line, and what happens to his career and legacy if he misses a second straight Games. Be sure to read our Sunday Long Read all about Levins' career, entitled, "Cam Levins Has One Chance Left at Redefining His Legacy."

Hosts John Lofranco and Michael Doyle unpack who came and won big at The Marathon Project, one of the most intriguing elite marathons, well, maybe ever. And of course, they each also select three big losers on the day — those who had something at stake and failed in some capacity. They discuss, sponsored athletes vs. working-class stiffs, (future) Olympians, Hoka (yes, the shoe company), and Cam Levins.

The Marathon Project delivered on its promise — it was a wild, consequential and highly entertaining way to cap off 2020. The XC's Alex Cyr and Michael Doyle pivot from watching the race to provide their immediate reaction to what just went down in the Arizona desert: Sara Hall's stunning performance, Martin Hehir's all-time risky (and brilliant) second half, and the significant Olympic marathon implications for Team Canada.

The Marathon Project, featuring many of the best marathon runners in North America, takes place this Sunday. There's a lot at stake on the 4.26-mile loop in the Arizona desert: Olympic dreams, big breakthroughs and maybe even an American marathon record? Hosts Alex Cyr and Michael Doyle have been heavily covering every aspect of the race all week long in what we've dubbed "Marathon Project Week." In this pod, they break down all the key storylines, big numbers to watch out for, what the weird course is like, what went into putting on this Pandemic-era race, how to watch and who we think will win. Be sure to follow us live on race day, starting at 9:30 a.m. ET. We'll be doing a live video podcast on YouTube, Facebook and our Twitter feed, covering the event through the whole race. Follow us on social @thexcorg And subscribe to our newsletter at thexc.org

Our coverage of Sunday's Marathon Project in Arizona continues with... the man, the myth, the Canadian marathon running legend: Cameron Levins. Levins says he will be racing for the win on Sunday, but also plans on breaking his own Canadian national marathon record of 2:09:25 in the process. Oh, and that will no doubt confirm his return to the Olympics after a nine year absence. In this podcast, host Michael Doyle speaks with Levins, who is already in Arizona waiting for race day. They discuss his surreal and tough experience running the London Marathon in October, his quest to be a world-beating marathoner, and the jaw-dropping workouts he's done in prep for The Marathon Project. It's Marathon Project week at The XC, where we are going deep on the event, including daily podcasts and a live pod on race day, Dec. 20, starting at 9:30 a.m. ET. on our YouTube channel, Facebook page and on Twitter.

This week, we interview runners who are gearing up for The Marathon Project, a race in Chandler, Ariz., that doubles as an qualifier for the 2021 Olympic Games. It's probably going to be the fastest North American marathon of 2020, and it happens on Sunday, Dec. 20. Our first guest is Rory Linkletter, a 24-year-old Canadian-American, and second-time marathoner. Last fall, he raced to a 2:16:42 in his marathon debut. Linkletter, a professional runner for Hoka One One and NAZ Elite, hopes to dip under the Olympic standard of 2:11:30 on Sunday. That sounds like a stretch, until you consider that he's run the second fastest half-marathon in Canadian history earlier this year in 61:44, and it's clear from his Strava profile that he is ready to run much faster than 2:16. Here, Linkletter tells us what The Marathon Project is all about - he lives in Flagstaff, so he has the inside scoop. We also chat about his preparation for the race, his decision to let his hair grow until he makes an Olympic team - it's already down to his shoulders - and his experience living with fellow Canadian Olympic hopeful Cam Levins for 5 weeks this fall. We hope you enjoy the conversation. Be sure to catch our Marathon Project coverage throughout the week. We will have a few more runners on to chat prior to the race, and we are preparing a live viewing experience of the race itself on Sunday, Dec 20.

The 2020 London Marathon featured upsets, disappointments, sprint finishes, and even a shoe controversy (or two). The XC's John Lofranco and Michael Doyle each pick three big winners and losers from the elite-only event in St. James' Park.

Listen to other episodes here: https://sites.google.com/view/terminal-mile-link-tree/home What can’t be said about Cam Levins at this point??? Canadian marathon record holder, Olympian, NCAA Champion...even his training is a part of our sports folklore as rumours of monster mileage dominated early conversations during his time at Southern Utah. Recently Cam, a Hoka One One and Polar athlete coached by 2 time Canadian Marathon champion Jim Finlayson, has captured our attention once again, posting larger than life workouts on his Strava account, including a solo 62:12 half marathon time trial. What both we, and he didn’t know when he ran that was he would then get a spot onto the line of what is being billed as the greatest marathon of all time, the London Marathon happening October 4th with a select small field including the much talked about battle of the best, Bekele vs. Kipchoge. Yes, Cam will be able to qualify for an Olympic spot in this race, but with his training, experience and goals, that becomes a smaller sub plot, as we’ll watch to see just what Cam is truly capable of on that day.

Each week Canadian Running Staff writer Maddy Kelly and Shakeout host Kate Van Buskirk bring you a recap of the news, results and drama from the exciting world of running. This week on The Rundown  we bring you results from the roads, track and trails, including a half-marathon PB from Cam Levins and speedy performances from the Stockholm Diamond League. We break down the incredible entrance list for the elite-only London Marathon. And we learn that Usain Bolt has reportedly tested positive for COVID-19 following his 34th birthday party. Learn more about The Shakeout Podcast and Canadian Running Magazine on our website https://runningmagazine.ca/category/shakeout-podcast/Follow The Shakeout Podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/ShakeoutPodcastInstagram https://www.instagram.com/shakeoutpodcast/ andFacebook https://www.facebook.com/theshakeoutpodcast/Subscribe to our weekly show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-shakeout-podcast/id1224828899243

Calgary's Trevor Hofbauer joins the CITIUS MAG Podcast just days after locking up his automatic berth for the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo by finishing as the top Canadian man at the Toronto Waterfront Marathon. It marked the second Canadian marathon title in three years for Hofbauer as he upset Canadian record holder Cam Levins (3rd place, 2:15:01). Last year, Levins broke the Canadian record in Toronto in 2:09:25 and two years ago, Hofbauer celebrated into the finish line chute when he won in 2:18:05. This time around, he didn't celebrate until he made the final turn and saw the clock before the finish. He managed to lower his personal best from 2:16:48 in April's Hamburg Marathon to 2:09:51. After his race, he tweeted: "There’s a guy that lives in Calgary, trains solo except on LR Sunday’s with the guys, trains based off of feel, isn’t dictated by numbers, doesn’t care about likes and follows, and he’s a 2:09 guy. KEEP SHOWING UP" On Tuesday, he published a blog titled "Keep Showing Up" where he detailed the six-year journey to get to this point. We run through the blog post, which you can read here: https://trevorhofbauer.com/2019/10/22/keep-showing-up/ All of that and more in this episode of the show.

This week on The Rundown we're joined by Canadian marathon record-holder and Olympian Cam Levins. Cam helps us break down the news and results of the week from the track, trails and road. We also ask him about his training, his hairdo, his doppelganger Malcolm Gladwell, and what it was like being in Toronto for the Raptors' victory. This week we cover the Rabat Diamond League where Gabriela Stafford, Andre De Grasse and Crystal Emmanuel had brilliant showings. We also bring you the excitement from the Canadian 10,000m and Half Marathon Championships. And we talk about 2-time Olympian Kara Goucher's latest trail accomplishments.

2018 has been a bit of a banner year for us around here at the Terminal Mile. If you’ll indulge us for a second, this year saw us grow our audience by nearly 10,000 listens over the space of the year, I was there and got to participate in 3 national championships, we launched the Terminal Mile Cup, a distance medley relay event that saw some good friends of the show race for some trophies, we put our Something In The Water series, a look at the Speed River and University of Guelph teams, to air via the very exciting Citius Mag, and we celebrated episode 100. All this while covering the here and now of Canadian distance running, Cam Levins with the Canadian marathon record, Rachel Cliff with the half marathon record and an incredible debut in Berlin, Matt Hughes really returning to form in the Steeplechase, and countless other incredible accomplishments. So, here we are, at the end of 2018, wondering where we can go from here...as you’ve probably noticed, the frequency of the podcast has gone up...as for other changes, they’re likely to be coming in the following weeks as well...right now though, let’s look at this week’s episode: this week we’re taking a look back at the year that was with a little bit of help from our friends. Adam Stacey, founder of trackie,ca, Alex Cyr, author of Runner’s of The Nish, Jeff Costen, you know him as our in house run pundit and a national marathon championship bronze medalist and we’ll even here from Steve Boyd as they recount their favorite interviews from the year, which we will play parts of for you.

2:10:09. It’s a number that has seemed to get bigger with each of the 43 passing years, and every talented, hardworking runner to taking aim at it. Every year there would be renewed buzz...maybe this is the year it happens. Well, here we are, that 2:10:09 has been knocked down to 2:09:25, Fukuoka turned to Toronto Waterfront and where we used to see the name Jerome Drayton, we now see one Cameron Levins. While for many years, this just seemed like an inevitability, Cam’s story is not just made up of a British Columbian who ran big mileage and did well in college, it’s a tale of setbacks and comebacks, falling down and the persistence needed to get back up. On this week’s show, we chat with Cam Levin’s the new Canadian Marathon record holder. We also chat with Alan Brookes, the race director of the Scotia Toronto Waterfront Marathon, and he’ll offer his perspective on the day’s events.

Cam Levins joins the CITIUS MAG Podcast after winning the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon and breaking a four-decade-old Canadian record in 2:09:25. The previous record was held by Jerome Drayton in 2:10:09.  Levins, 29, was a 2012 Olympian for Canada in the 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters. He was a standout star at Southern Utah and won the 2012 Bowerman Award. He was legendary for weeks that topped out at 180-191 miles per week. He spent time training with the Nike Oregon Project under Alberto Salazar. In recent years, he has been sidelined by injuries and was unable to race at the 2016 Summer Games in Rio.  We discuss his comeback, the plan that went into his marathon debut and a return to high mileage. Levins plans to compete in the marathon at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo but what do his 2019 race plans entail? New York Times best selling author Malcolm Gladwell, also the host of the hit podcast 'Revisionist History', submitted his own questions for Levins so we get to those.  Plus: We share your listener questions that were submitted on Instagram.  ------- This episode of the podcast is brought to you by Kudos.

I know it’s been said before, but it feels like this sport is moving at a break neck speed.Since last episode, the Canadian marathon record fell (congratulations Cam Levins), both Canadian marathon championship titles were taken by two debutants, plus about a thousand other notable storylines from Scotia Toronto Waterfront marathon...but also since the last time we spoke, one of the greatest Canadian mid-distance runners ever retired from the sport. On this week’s show we chat with 1,500m specialist Nicole Sifuentes, hanging up the spikes after any illustrious career that saw her medal at the world indoor champs, pan am games, continental cup, winning a couple of national championships, and garnering a national record, but first, Kinsey middleton,at just 25 years old, she ran her debut marathon at the scotiabank toronto waterfront marathon last weekend, running 2:32:09, capturing the Canadian national championship along the way. We’ll also hear from some of Nicoles’ True Blue Elite teammates, Jaimie Phelan, Jamie Morrissey and Becca Addison...don’t go anywhere…

Jerome Drayton ran 2:10:09 to set the Canadian Marathon Record in 1975. At the time, it was considered to be one of the best performances in the history of the event. More than four decades later, that record still stands. Ahead of the 2018 Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon (STWM), we sat down with two the country's most prominent runners to talk about the future of Canadian marathoning. Reid Coolsaet of Hamilton, Ontario has been dominant on the marathon scene for over a decade. Cam Levins of Black Creek, British Columbia will be running his marathon debut at STWM. Both the veteran and the rookie have their eyes set on the Canadian record.

And just like that, we seem to have moved on from summer to fall running. Yes, now is the time to turn in those track spikes for cross spikes, or maybe to transition your shorter distance racing flats for a bit heavier racing flats…if you’re like me, that’s not a bad thing, it’s just a change of season. With that turn in mind, this week we caught up with both a boy, and girl of summer; Cam Levins took this summer to really make a statement, announcing his return after a rough couple of years on the sideline...we’re excited to have him back and to have him on the show, as well, Jess O’Connell has had quite the year, racing on the world stage, seeing some big results!

This week's Shakeout Podcast episode is hosted by editor-in-chief, Michael Doyle, web editor Sinead Mulhern and staff writer Tim Huebsch. We chat with Cam Levins, one of Canada's most talented athletes. He tells us about his tumultuous year–a significant injury and rather intense subsequent surgery, leaving Alberto Salazar and the Nike Oregon Project, reconnecting with his college coach and the massive mileage he's back to running. Also, he shares his big track and marathon-related plans. Plus, our weekly recommendations.
