I trained for six months to avoid the medical tent—and still almost ended up there.After months of disciplined heart rate-based training, I took on the marathon to see if the low-intensity aerobic engine I built could carry me across 42.2 kilometers of real-world terrain and unpredictable conditions. What followed was a humbling, high-stakes experiment in pacing, pain management, and mental grit. If you've ever wondered how to truly train smart, how Zone 2 feels when it meets the edge of your limits, and what lessons emerge when your best-laid plans collide with race-day chaos, this episode is your field guide. You'll walk away with clarity on how to approach your own training more intelligently—and what it really takes to execute when it counts.Key TakeawaysZone 2 training works—but only to a point. It's great for building a strong base, but when it comes to marathon day, the body can still fall short if it's not prepared for the full distance and terrain.Heart rate zones aren't one-size-fits-all. What works on paper (or with formulas like MAF) might not match real-life results without proper testing.Success isn't just about pace—it's about adapting mid-race, knowing when to push, and when to hold back to avoid a full crash.Timestamps[00:00] Setting goals and why sub-3-hour marathons are a big deal[01:45] Race day energy matters[02:18] Lock in your pace early; if it feels too hard now, it'll only get worse[03:50] How to improve zone two running and get faster at lower effort[04:45] Understand the running science[06:15] Where Maximum Aerobic Function falls short[07:59] When fatigue hits, adjust your goal[10:07] Finishing strong[11:14] Post-race lessons[12:57] Final thoughts on Zone 2 and what's nextLinks & Learnings
Seguro que oíste hablar de “la regla de las 10 000 horas”, por la cual acumular 10 000 horas de práctica te permiten alcanzar un nivel de rendimiento experto en un ámbito. Dicho ámbito pueden ser las artes, las ciencias o el deporte. Pero, ¿qué origen tiene este concepto? Y, sobre todo, ¿qué base tiene (si es que la tiene)? Vamos a revisar el estudio original que dio pie al concepto, el de Ericsson et al 1993. Y vamos a revisar después dos estudios que lo refutan, ambos de la investigadora Brooke McNamara (os dejo los links más abajo). Como ejemplo de que hacen falta tanto trabajo como talento para alcanzar la genialidad, analizaremos el caso de Kilian Jornet, cuyos números nos comparte en un Post de su blog. Pongo el link abajo también.

Plus, Sabrina Carpenter drops her new album cover—and the internet loses its mind. Is it DV glamour porn? Subversive satire? Or just a PR play we’ve seen before?

Monday 16th June 2025 This episode is dedicated to the great Todd ‘the tractor' Ingraham. Todd was a trailblazer and a weapon in the WA running world, holding state titles from the 1500m all the way to the full marathon, and even a sneaky 2000m steeplechase. Todd loved to race and loved to win, Todd's superpower was his grit, determination and out hurting his competitors. Todd sadly lost his battle to Motor Neuron Disease last week. His stories, mantras and his legacy will live on in the WA running community. Rest in Peace Papa T. This week we cover the 2025 Wadjemup Rottnest Running Festival with Kate Baker and Max Davidson taking out the inaugural Todd Ingraham Trophy, and results from the PTS winter series Eagle and Child. In this week's interview, we talk to Dr Shaphan Cox and Peter Hallahan from Curtin University, who look to explore our running habits and our sense of ‘place' using the power of Strava. Jorge Madeira, Tom Zawalnyski's coconuts at the 2025 Samoa Marathon, see through half tights at Rotto and Chemie Banger feature in this week's weapons of WARP.

This episode brings the trio—Burso, Fitzy, and Joe—back together for a mix of trail-running prep, personal stories, and absolute chaos. With Joe signed up to run the first 19km leg of the Surf Coast Trail Marathon (while still recovering from Influenza A), and his mate Chris doing the second leg, the episode dives into the unfiltered realities of amateur endurance sports: the motivation, the gear, the setbacks, and the questionable preparation.There's no shortage of friendly roasting and classic Fitzy shade as the boys cover everything from text message ghosting, to accidental podium finishes, to toe trauma. Joe admits to doing “almost zero prep” for this race, aside from a solid pasta meal and packing some emergency Skittles. He reflects on the brutal Wilson's Prom Marathon, where dehydration and searing granite heat saw him sheltering under a tree for 15 minutes before walking the final 6K—only to discover he'd placed on the podium due to mass DNFs.Open-ended questions this episode answers:Can you run a trail marathon without training and still have fun—or even place?What's more important—running tech or snacks?Why do your toenails always betray you when the running gets tough?Can banter, resilience, and a bit of stubbornness carry you through a cold 19km?The episode also explores the infamous Surf Coast Century, the appeal of team-based endurance events, and the possibility of putting together veteran teams for bigger challenges. Fitzy, ever the pragmatist, gives gear tips while shaming everyone's Strava usage. Meanwhile, Joe's story about getting his best half-marathon time after stepping off a submarine becomes one of the many “how the hell did that happen?” moments.But it's not all running. From Burso being taunted by an 11-year-old parkrun assassin, to Fitzy's blackened toenails, and heated arm-wrestle rivalries with tattooed authors, there's no shortage of off-track stories that make this episode a rollercoaster of laughs and relatable chaos.

Your smartwatch knows more about you than your coach, so why isn't it helping you train smarter?What if your smartwatch actually understood you—not just your steps or heart rate, but your lifestyle, goals, and even those off days when your body says “not today”? This episode breaks down the core flaws in current running AI and smartwatch tech, revealing why most fitness platforms fall short for experienced runners. I explore how to take ownership of your data, transform it into powerful insights, and build a personalized, adaptive training system that actually serves you. If you've ever felt like your fitness tracker wasn't keeping up, you'll want to hear how to flip the script and train 1% better every day—with your own hybrid of human intuition and machine precision.Key TakeawaysRunning AI needs more personalization—it should adapt to your goals, recovery, and life stresses instead of giving generic advice.Most fitness apps focus on basic metrics like heart rate and pace but miss the personal context that makes training advice actually useful for people who've been running more than a few months.To get better insights, we need to take control of our own fitness data by exporting it, building our own dashboards, and using AI tools to find trends and make smarter training decisions.Timestamps[00:00] Why AI in fitness still doesn't get you[00:40] The real problem with "one-size-fits-all" advice[01:34] Who these apps are really built for (hint: not experienced runners)[02:25] Why data without context fails[03:08] The better way AI could help runners[05:02] How to take control of your own data[06:38] My personal system to set real goals[07:16] What I want AI to actually do for me (my wishlist)[08:26] Using AI tools to analyze your own training data and improve[09:58] What I'm building next — a smarter, more personalized training planLinks & Learnings
Quand j'avais 21 ans je n'aurai jamais eu idée de courir un semi-marathon, encore moins après avoir nagé 1,9km et roulé 90km.

C'est ce dont nous avons discuté dans cet épisode.C'est difficile à croire, mais au départ Cléa n'aimait pas spécialement nager, rouler ou courir. Venue de l'escalade elle s'est prise au jeu.

To follow the curiosity. It may seem absurd, but go deeper. Make it worse. Improv (Yes, And for collaborating) Use Chat GPT as a collaborator. It wants to be "smart," to make them "illogical": what is a commonality between extreme ideas, or create a new idea from two opposite things. Colab Culture. If it's weird enough, it gets me curious. Lean in. Example: Make it Worse (to create new things, learned how to NOT do it, shake up brain) When start projects, start with mental models first, what you've written isn't that precious, too afraid to change it. Test the dumb idea with feedback. What's the fastest way to test?

Julie Heidi, the Director of Track & Field and Cross Country at MIT, reflects on a historic season for the women's team, including their first-ever triple crown. MIT went from never have a women's team national title to securing three in one year!She discusses the importance of mental and physical health for athletes, the challenges of recruitment at a prestigious institution like MIT, and the balance of managing a well-rounded program. She reflects on the challenges and successes of coaching, the significance of institutional support, and the need for more women in coaching roles. Coach Heyde became the third woman to lead a D3 team to an indoor title and the sixth woman to do so outdoors.SUPPORT BOMBASWe're very excited to have Bombas sponsoring the podcast this month!

Shannon Howell...what can I say to explain the level of athleticism, grit, dedication and talent this woman possesses? I first heard of Shannon when I ran the Heartbreaker 50 mile (which she won), and so I decided to look her up on Ultrasignup. Whoa...79 races recorded, and she finished on the podium more than half of these. Mind blowing. Absolutely amazing. So many iconic races she has been able to participate in, and I must say I am a wee bit jealous of her experiences! I could not wait to talk to her, and our conversation did not disappoint. Her running journey is inspiring to put it mildly. We talked about so many of her races and training, and we dove into her experience at Hellbender, but one thing that stood out to me throughout our conversation was her love of people. Whether that was on her group runs or during races, she continued to mention the people she has met and the connections she has made across the country and around the world. As someone that is shy around people I don't know (yes, that's me!), this was so impactful. Her love for trail running and her the joy she finds in others will only help this sport grow and thrive. We need more people like this in all of our lives. Thank you, Shannon, for being an inspiration in so many ways. By the way, this is my first episode recording over the phone and not in person! I was able to FaceTime Shannon, where I could at least see her face-to-face, but she did not have to travel to me to record. I recently decided to take a leap and purchase new equipment to where I can interview guests from anywhere, and I am so excited about this new development!Shannon's Instagram: http://instagram.com/runshanyrunShannon's Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/9214319Follow us on Instagram! @facingvertThank you so much for listening!
V Česku se od roku 2010 zvyšuje počet pacientů s poruchami příjmu potravy. Po koronavirové pandemii růst nabral ještě větší tempo hlavně mezi mladými lidmi, kteří tím často řeší problémy ve chvíli, kdy mají malou kontrolu nad svým životem a dějí se jim změny, které nemohou ovlivnit. Ať už jde o nelehké situace doma, mezi kamarády nebo ve školním prostředí. “Strava je první věc, která je při ruce. Dokáže ztlumit duševní bolest,” potvrzuje dětská terapeutka Veronika Šimková.

Ebun Opata will leave WashU as a 12x All-American. Every time she competed in the triple jump, she walked away an All-American.The what if of her careers comes this year. At the indoor national meet, she was overtaken on the final jump of her competitor by just one centimeter. The same thing happened outdoors but it took a +4.4 m/s gust to help to overtake her. Two seperate occasions she missed out on a title on the very last jump.However, she has a great perspective and sense of accomplishment within her career. She has progressed as jumper and saw herself on the team podium with WashU 7 times.This is a great conversation to understand how to deal with setbacks and keep going.SUPPORT BOMBASWe're very excited to have Bombas sponsoring the podcast this month!

It won't cost you even 2% of what the Enhanced Games are charging, and our advice actually works, and is safe!Show notesAt 1:09. In the Discourse Digest news roundup, Gareth and Ross tackle three stories where science and policy collide. First up, the Enhanced Games' latest scheme—inviting people to pay $399/month for performance-enhancing drug guidance under the guise of anti-aging and health. Then, a look at World Boxing's new sex screening policy for the women's category: what the language really means, why it matters, and how sport might manage it. Finally, a compromise attempt in California where extra medals are awarded to navigate the inclusion of trans-identified males in girls' sport—Gareth and Ross explore what's gained and lost in that trade-offAt 25:39. A new Listener Lens feature this week comes from Discourse member Tony, who asks: how should you judge your warm-up before a race? Ross and Gareth explore what a warm-up really prepares—neuromuscular readiness, not just heart rate—and share insights from fellow Discourse members who've fine-tuned their routinesAt 33:35. And Finally (not quite today!), British ultra runner William Goodge is under fire after suspicious data emerged from his trans-Australia record attempt. Ross recalls a similar case he investigated, and the duo asks: why, in an age of abundant tracking tech, are we still debating whether these runs really happened?At 42:58. This week's Center Stage belongs to one of the most dramatic finales in recent Grand Tour history. Simon Yates won the Giro d'Italia with a stunning final mountain stage raid—equal parts science, strategy, and surprise. Mike and Ross unpack the physiology and tactics behind Yates' triumph: Did del Toro and Carapaz concede the maglia rosa because they hit their physiological limits, or were they undone by tactical missteps and pacing errors? And what about Wout van Aert, the satellite rider whose power and presence may have changed the race's outcome? From record-breaking efforts to tactical stalemates, we break down the science that decided the GiroLinksNick Harris on the Enhanced Games dealWorld Boxing announce the sex screening policyTony's question about Warmup HR, as discussed in Listener Lens (Discourse members only)Story of Rob Young's questioned ultra performance, with a link to the report I co-wrote on itAnalysis of Yates' record performance on the FinestereDerek Gee's Strava file Hosted on Acast.

What if the key to running faster wasn't about running harder, but about remembering how to skip like a kid?What if the secret to unlocking faster, more joyful running isn't another grueling workout, but something so simple you've likely been ignoring it? In this episode, I dig into the counterintuitive power of short, controlled bursts that could completely change your approach to training—physically and mentally. We'll uncover why your ego might be sabotaging your progress, how skipping (yes, like when you were a kid) plays a vital role in performance, and the quiet discipline behind showing up daily with purpose. Whether you're trying to break through a plateau or just bring more intention to your running and life, this episode will give you a smarter foundation and a system you can start today.Timestamps[00:00] What most runners skip that actually helps: Strides[01:22] What strides are and why they matter[03:10] Skipping as a warm-up tool for fast running[04:40] How to use skipping and strides in your workouts[05:34] The ego trap in training and goal setting[06:20] Why “shoulds” burn us out in running and life[07:55] What real long-term consistency looks like[09:27] Lessons from writing and how they reflect in running[10:57] The big truth: life mirrors running[11:52] What you can actually start doing todayWho Is Nicole Burnham?Nicole Burnham is a RITA award-winning author of over twenty romance novels, including the popular Royal Scandals series.Before becoming a full-time writer, she earned both a J.D. and an M.A. in political science from the University of Michigan and practiced law.As an Army brat, she grew up moving around the world, which has influenced the international settings of her novels.

Ever found yourself obsessively checking your Strava splits, overthinking your to-do list, and wondering when life got so... serious? Strap in, Fitties! This one's a jumbo episode because, well… we got a bit carried away chatting all things health, mindset, and the madness of modern life! We dive into how social media and over-reliance on our phones are frying our brains, and how stepping away - even for 36 hours - can offer huge perspective. We talk about the importance of environments that support focus and mindfulness, and why creativity, play, and even doing things badly (hello sewing machines and pottery classes) are vital for emotional health. Plus tips on reprogramming the reactive mind, learning to sit with discomfort rather than distracting from it, and recognising that overwhelm often stems from unmet emotional needs, not a lack of productivity hacks. Whether it's making space for language lessons, finding joy in nature, or reflecting with compassion instead of criticism, we hope this conversation helps you identify one thing you can put into action this week to support your health, happiness, and sanity. Plus... why Matt confessed to checking himself out naked in the mirror (purely scientific, obviously

During a divided time in America, our love of sports and fitness cross party lines and can keep us healthy as individuals and bring us together as a nation. The United States of Sweat is a new series from Choose the Hard Way that features the world's leading political leaders and policy makers sharing stories about what they do to stay healthy, fit and physically active. When we decided to launch the United States of Sweat, we knew the first guest we wanted to land was an endurance athlete of a different kind, Ambassador Jeff Flake. Ambassador Flake recently served as U.S. Ambassador to Türkiye and previously represented Arizona in both the U.S. Senate and House. He's taught at Harvard, Stanford, and Yale, and now leads the Institute of Politics at Arizona State. In 2025, he was knighted by Sweden for his role in securing their NATO accession. He's also the author of the New York Times bestseller Conscience of a Conservative: A Rejection of Destructive Politics and a Return to Principle. In his spare time, Ambassador Flake likes to maroon himself on deserted islands and survive with little more than a spear and a machete. Ambassador Flake and his wife, Cheryl, are the parents of five grown children. We first crossed paths in 2018 when then Senators Flake and Chris Coons sent a letter to Strava about our global heat map and data privacy when I was running global communications. That led to a trip to the hill and one of the most thrilling and fulfilling experiences of my professional career that I'll save for another podcast. My co-host on the United States of Sweat is Jonathan Kaplan. You may know Jonathan as the author of the popular Riding With newsletter and for his legendary performance at the January 2025 Beyond the Peloton x Choose the Hard Way training camp. But wait, there's more. Jonathan Kaplan is a former political journalist, congressional aide, State Department official, and most recently, comms strategist for the world's largest human rights funder. He now runs Essington Road Strategies, helping organizations navigate Washington, shape policy, and manage reputational risk. He also writes Riding With, a newsletter and podcast exploring the intersection of pro cycling, media, business, and politics. Find that at ridingwithkaplan.substack.com. For senior execs, pro athletes, and political leaders, podcasts aren't optional anymore—they're mission-critical. At One Real Voice, I coach leaders 1:1 to help them show up as humans and stand out in the long-form podcast conversations where real influence is built.
