Dit is een bonus aflevering van de Slimmer Presteren Podcast, over sport, onderzoek en innovatie. In deze aflevering hebben Gerrit en Jurgen het over:Vraag Ons Alles Over de Marathon (2025)INLEIDING:De marathon komt dichterbij en dat voel je. Onrustige benen, vragen over je schoenen, twijfels over tempo, voeding, taperen… Daarom gingen Gerrit, Jurgen en Guido live in gesprek met tientallen luisteraars. In een interactieve sessie beantwoordden ze álles wat je wilt weten in de laatste weken voor de grote dag.Van pacing op wattage tot wel of geen extra zouttabletten, van shake-out runs tot caféine-gels – alles kwam langs, inclusief herkenbare twijfels en verrassend concrete tips. Zelfs de wc-planning op zondagochtend bleef niet onbesproken.Loop jij binnenkort in Rotterdam, Leiden of ergens anders? Dan wil je deze aflevering niet missen.Vragen die in deze aflevering worden beantwoord: Wanneer is een schoen klaar voor een marathon?Guido: Als je er een halfuur op kunt lopen zonder klachten, is ‘ie klaar. Jurgen waarschuwt voor modelwijzigingen bij dezelfde schoennaam.Wat moet je monitoren tijdens de race?Jurgen: Niet te veel tegelijk. Houd het simpel. Gerrit gebruikt wattage (Stryd) en tempo per km. Guido: gebruik in je race wat je in training gewend bent.Helpt een korte loop de dag vóór de marathon?Guido: Mentaal nuttig, fysiek niet noodzakelijk. Jurgen: goed moment om je uitrusting te testen.Heb je extra zout of elektrolyten nodig?Guido: Alleen bij uitzonderlijk zoutverlies. Jurgen: je verliest minder dan je denkt, en gels bevatten vaak al natrium.Wat is het ideale marathonschema op de racedag?Gerrit: Begin met de starttijd en reken terug. Zet álles in een planning: ontbijt, parkeren, toilet, warming-up en startvak.Is het slim om te slapen in Rotterdam of thuis?Jurgen: Slaap waar je het best slaapt. Guido: liever vroeg op dan slecht slapen in een hotel.Wat is de beste taperstrategie?Guido: Geen vaste formule. Afhankelijk van herstelvermogen en stressgevoeligheid. Jurgen: volume omlaag, intensiteit iets houden, levert zo'n 4% winst op.Moet je gemiste trainingen inhalen?Guido: Absoluut niet. Herschrijf je schema, maar ga niet proppen. Jurgen: bijna niemand heeft een ‘perfecte' voorbereiding.Kan je tijdens taperen extra fietsen als je minder loopt?Guido: Niet als vervanging. Fiets alleen als ontspanning, niet om trainingsuren op te vullen.Hoe bereid je je voeding voor in de laatste dagen?Guido: Verschuif naar meer koolhydraten en minder vezels in de laatste 2-3 dagen. Jurgen: geen oude ‘stapel-mythen' meer, hou het simpel.Wat is het effect van cafeïne?Jurgen: Sterk wetenschappelijk onderbouwd prestatievoordeel. Gerrit: combineert gels met en zonder cafeïne, niet meer dan nodig.Is lopen met een pacer slim?Jurgen vond het chaotisch, Gerrit juist handig. Guido: Pacers lopen meestal strak tempo, maar zorg dat je plan B klaarstaat.Wat als je vaak te lief voor jezelf bent?Guido: Werk met realistische, ambitieuze doelen op kortere afstanden. Gerrit: pacing op vermogen helpt objectieve grenzen te bewaken.Wanneer loop je een testwedstrijd vóór je marathon?Guido: Een 10 km kan twee weken van tevoren, halve marathon liever drie weken. Fijn voor tempo en racedayroutine.Welke tools helpen bij raceplanning?Gerrit verwijst naar voordevolgers.nl, een door luisteraar...

Professor Renier Coetzee van die Universiteit van die Wes-Kaap sê befondsingsprobleme bedreig die vordering in die stryd teen tuberkulose. Die onttrekking van die Amerikaanse president se noodplan vir Vigs-verligting se fondse plaas groot druk op nieregeringsorganisasies. Baie organisasies soos TB Proof, ANOVA en TB/HIV Care maak op hierdie fondse staat vir hul programme. Coetzee sê sonder voldoende hulpbronne kan mentorskapprogramme, slypskole en bewusmakingsveldtogte verminder of gestaak word.

In the absence of a training plan or coaching, many runners get the trail or path at a running pace that just feels right. Run fast enough that you feel like you are training, but not so hard that it's too uncomfortable. Let's explore different definitions of running intensity, metrics to measure and which ones to use when: Defining Run Intensity - Run intensity refers to the level of effort or exertion you put into a running activity. It is often categorized as low, moderate, or high intensity, based on factors like pace, heart rate, breathing, and perceived effort. Here's a quick breakdown: Low Intensity: Easy, conversational pace. Your heart rate is relatively low, and you can maintain this effort for a long time. Moderate Intensity: Steady effort where you're working harder, but can still talk in short sentences. Your heart rate is elevated, and it's a great zone for building endurance. High Intensity: Challenging effort where talking becomes difficult, and you feel you're pushing close to your maximum capacity. This is often used in interval or sprint training. Rate of Perceived Exertion - Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) is a scale used to measure the intensity of your physical activity based on how hard you feel you're working. Unlike metrics like heart rate or pace, RPE is subjective and relies on your personal assessment of effort, factoring in sensations like breathing, muscle fatigue, and overall discomfort. Why Run to Perceived Exertion? Individualized Intensity: RPE adapts to your fitness level, energy, and external conditions (like heat or hills), offering a more personalized way to gauge effort. Improved Training: It helps balance your runs—ensuring easy days stay easy and hard days push you effectively. Injury Prevention: Avoid overtraining by recognizing when you're pushing too hard. When to Run to Perceived Exertion? Adverse Conditions: When gadgets like heart rate monitors or GPS devices are unreliable, such as in extreme weather or technical terrain. Adaptive Workouts: If you're feeling unusually tired or energetic, RPE allows you to adjust your workout to match your current capability. Race Training: For pacing strategies during races, especially if unexpected factors (like crowded race conditions) arise. How to Run to Perceived Exertion? Use a simplified RPE scale (1 to 10): 1–2 (Very Easy): Recovery runs or warm-ups. You should feel like you can talk effortlessly. 3–4 (Easy-Moderate): Base-building runs, where you can hold a conversation without strain. 5–6 (Moderate): Steady effort runs, breathing heavier but still manageable. 7–8 (Hard): Tempo runs or intervals; talking is difficult, and you're focused. 9–10 (Maximum Effort): Short sprints or finishes; you're working at your limit. Incorporating RPE into your runs allows for more mindful training, adjusting to your body's signals in real time. Heart Rate - Running to heart rate intensity involves monitoring and controlling your effort level based on your heart rate during exercise. This method helps align your training with specific fitness goals by ensuring you stay within optimal heart rate zones. Why Run to Heart Rate Intensity? Targeted Training: Heart rate zones align with physiological benefits like fat burning, aerobic endurance, or anaerobic power, making your training more effective. Prevent Overtraining: It ensures you don't push too hard on easy days or underperform on hard days. Performance Feedback: Tracks improvements over time as you can run faster at the same heart rate or maintain higher intensities for longer. When to Run to Heart Rate Intensity? Structured Training Plans: Ideal for workouts aimed at specific goals, like building endurance or improving speed. Recovery Runs: Helps keep effort low, avoiding unnecessary strain. Race Pacing: Guides you to stay consistent and avoid burnout, especially during long races like marathons. How to Run to Heart Rate Intensity? Determine Your Heart Rate Zones: Calculate them based on your maximum heart rate (rough estimate: 220−age) or use a fitness test for accuracy. Common zones are: Zone 1 (50–60% of max HR): Active recovery. Zone 2 (60–70% of max HR): Aerobic endurance (easy effort). Zone 3 (70–80% of max HR): Steady-state/cardio fitness. Zone 4 (80–90% of max HR): Anaerobic power (hard effort). Zone 5 (90–100% of max HR): Maximal effort (short sprints). Wear a Heart Rate Monitor: Use a chest strap or wrist-based device for real-time feedback. Match Your Runs to Zones: Recovery runs in Zone 1–2. Long, slow distance runs in Zone 2. Tempo runs in Zone 3–4. Interval workouts in Zone 4–5. Training by heart rate takes time to get used to, especially as your pace can vary due to factors like weather, terrain, or fatigue. Pace - Running to pace intensity involves setting and maintaining specific paces during your runs based on your goals and fitness level. This approach relies on measurable speed, helping runners stay consistent and hit desired performance targets. Why Run to Pace Intensity? Goal-Oriented Training: Enables you to train precisely for specific race goals, like a personal best or qualifying time. Consistency: Keeps your workouts structured and ensures you're working at the right level of effort. Progress Measurement: Tracking pace helps evaluate improvement and adjust training over time. When to Run to Pace Intensity? Race Preparation: Crucial when training for events like 5Ks, marathons, or ultramarathons to mimic race day conditions. Tempo and Speed Workouts: Ensures you're working hard enough to improve endurance or speed. Performance Tracking: Useful in testing sessions to assess fitness levels and adapt training plans. How to Run to Pace Intensity? Set Target Paces: Base them on your fitness level or goals, often determined through assessments (like a recent race) or pace calculators. Example: A long run at a slower, steady pace vs. interval training at faster paces. Use a GPS Watch or App: Track your pace in real time to stay on target. Match Workouts to Paces: Easy Runs: ~60–75% of your race pace, focusing on recovery and endurance. Tempo Runs: ~85–90% of race pace, maintaining a challenging but sustainable effort. Speed Work: Short, fast intervals (e.g., 400m) run faster than race pace to build speed. Running to pace is an excellent tool for precision, but it's important to stay flexible since factors like terrain, weather, or fatigue can impact your speed. Grade Adjusted Pace - Running to grade-adjusted pace (GAP) intensity accounts for the impact of elevation changes (uphills and downhills) on your effort level. It essentially adjusts your pace to reflect how hard you're working, regardless of the terrain, allowing for a more accurate evaluation of intensity. Why Run to Grade-Adjusted Pace Intensity? Effort Consistency: Uphills and downhills significantly alter your pace, and GAP provides a better measure of effort than raw pace alone. Smarter Training: Allows you to match your effort levels to your goals, even on hilly routes. Race Preparation: Ideal for training on varied terrain while maintaining the intensity required for flat courses or specific race targets. When to Run to Grade-Adjusted Pace Intensity? Hilly Routes: Use GAP to ensure your effort stays consistent when elevation fluctuates. Long Distance Training: GAP can help keep you within the right intensity zone during marathons or other endurance events on rolling terrain. Performance Analysis: Post-run, GAP is great for evaluating your effort compared to your intended training intensity. How to Run to Grade-Adjusted Pace Intensity? Use a GAP Calculator or App: Apps like Strava and certain running watches automatically calculate GAP based on elevation data during your run. Focus on Effort: Pay attention to how your body feels in hilly sections and adjust your pace to keep a steady effort. Uphills: Run slower than your flat-ground pace; GAP adjusts to reflect the extra effort. Downhills: Your pace naturally increases, but GAP accounts for the reduced effort. Incorporate GAP into Training Zones: Easy runs: Stay in lower GAP zones to avoid overworking on hills. Tempo runs: Use GAP to sustain the intended intensity, regardless of terrain. Hill workouts: GAP helps you measure consistent effort, improving strength and endurance. Running to grade-adjusted pace allows you to train smarter, especially in regions where hills dominate the landscape. Power - Running to power intensity involves using a power meter to measure the amount of force or effort you're exerting during a run, expressed in watts. Unlike heart rate or pace, which can be influenced by external factors, running power provides an immediate and objective measure of your effort, making it a highly efficient way to train. Why Run to Power Intensity? Objective Measurement: Power reflects your actual output, unaffected by variables like heat, fatigue, or elevation. Precision: It ensures you're training at the right intensity for specific goals, from endurance to speed. Consistency Across Terrain: Power accounts for changes in elevation and surface, helping you maintain consistent effort. Improved Efficiency: Monitoring your power output can help you refine your running form and efficiency. When to Run to Power Intensity? Hilly or Variable Terrain: Power allows you to maintain effort regardless of elevation changes, making it great for trail or road running. Interval Training: Provides instant feedback, so you can hit and sustain specific targets for each interval. Racing: Helps you avoid going out too hard or too easy by sticking to your target power zone, especially in events with rolling hills. How to Run to Power Intensity? Set Power Zones: Determine your Functional Threshold Power (FTP) through a fitness test, then calculate power zones (similar to heart rate zones): Zone 1 (Recovery): 55% or less of FTP. Zone 2 (Easy): 56–75% of FTP for aerobic base building. Zone 3 (Moderate): 76–90% of FTP for steady-state running. Zone 4 (Threshold): 91–105% of FTP for sustained hard efforts. Zone 5 (VO2 Max): 106–120% of FTP for short, intense intervals. Zone 6 (Anaerobic): Over 120% of FTP for maximal efforts. Use a Running Power Meter: Devices like Stryd or certain smartwatches with power sensors provide real-time wattage data. Match Workouts to Zones: Long runs: Stay in Zone 2 for endurance. Tempo runs: Target Zone 3–4 for sustained, moderate efforts. Intervals: Push into Zone 5–6 for high-intensity bursts. Training with power takes some adjustment but can lead to greater insights and efficiency in your running. Get Gritty Tip: Mastering Run Intensity Not every run should feel like a race. One of the biggest mistakes endurance athletes make is pushing too hard on easy days and not hard enough on intensity days. The result? Stagnation, burnout, and frustration. Here's the key: Honor the purpose of each run. Easy runs should be easy—think conversational pace, building endurance without taxing your system. But when it's time to go hard, don't hold back. Speed work, tempo runs, and race efforts should push your limits, not just check a box. Challenge: On your next run, be intentional. If it's an easy day, slow down more than feels natural. If it's an intense day, embrace the discomfort and lean in. Training smart is how you break through. Grit isn't just about effort—it's about discipline. TriDot Workout of the Week: “Threshold Repeats” vs “Recovery Run” Threshold Repeats Session Note Your goal is to perform each repeat with a consistent effort. The pace of your last repeat should be the same or slightly faster than your first. Be conservative and don't go out too hard on the first one else your later repeats will be negatively impacted. The most significant training benefit will come in how well you perform on the last few efforts. Recoveries should be at an extremly slow jog. Main Set 2 x 9 min @ Z4 (2 min) Balance of session @ Z2 Balance of time @ Z2 Recovery Run Session Note It's essential to manage your intensity for this session based on heart rate rather than pace and keep your heart rate well within the proper zone, even if it means walking instead of running. Going too hard on this session will hinder your recovery from prior sessions, limit your ability to get the most out of future sessions, and deprive you of the essential training adaptations that only come with training at the lower intensity. The pace at which you can go while maintaining a lower heart rate (and whether that is walking or running) is determined by many factors including environment, dehydration, residual fatigue, body composition, running efficiency, and aerobic fitness. As your body composition, running efficiency, and aerobic fitness improve, you will develop the ability to go faster at your target heart rate. Maintaining your lower heart rate during these sessions is key to developing that ability. Your heart rate is the standard of truth for your intensity level on this session. If you need to walk, then be disciplined to walk and remember that for these sessions ‘walking is winning'.

Cet épisode du podcast explore le concept du off-season pour les coureurs, une période de repos et de récupération après une saison d'entraînement intense. Les coachs discutent des différentes approches du off-season, des avantages et des défis de cette période. L'importance de la récupération: Le off-season permet au corps de se reposer et de se remettre des efforts soutenus de la saison de course. Il s'agit d'une période de diminution du volume d'entraînement et d'intensité pour prévenir les blessures et le surentraînement. Différentes approches: Il existe plusieurs façons d'aborder le off-season. Certains coureurs optent pour un repos complet, tandis que d'autres préfèrent maintenir un certain volume d'entraînement, mais à une intensité réduite. D'autres encore se tournent vers des sports croisés comme la natation ou le vélo pour maintenir leur forme physique tout en sollicitant différents groupes musculaires. Trouver sa propre formule: Le plus important est de trouver l'approche qui convient le mieux à chaque coureur en fonction de ses objectifs, de son niveau d'expérience et de ses contraintes personnelles. Profiter du off-season pour se fixer de nouveaux objectifs: Le off-season est aussi l'occasion de faire le bilan de la saison écoulée et de se fixer de nouveaux objectifs pour la saison à venir. C'est le moment idéal pour identifier les points faibles à améliorer et planifier un programme d'entraînement adapté. L'importance de la motivation: Maintenir sa motivation pendant le off-season peut être un défi pour certains coureurs. Trouver des activités alternatives agréables, comme s'inscrire à un club de sport ou explorer de nouveaux parcours, peut aider à rester actif et à garder le plaisir de bouger. En conclusion, le off-season est une période cruciale pour les coureurs. Bien géré, il permet de récupérer, de se ressourcer et de revenir plus fort pour la prochaine saison. Sur ce, Bonne course !
Meer as drie dekades na onafhanklikheid is dit duidelik dat armoede, ongelykheid en werkloosheid erger geword het, wat jeugproteste teen werkloosheid tot gevolg gehad het. Armoede is een van die grootste uitdagings waarmee baie gemeenskappe in Namibië te kampe het en Okahandja is geen uitsondering nie. Volgens Sydney Gariseb, 'n aktivis van Okahandja, groei die dorp se bevolking en ekonomiese aktiwiteite neem af, en daar is geen werkskepping nie.
President Cyril Ramaphosa is vol vertroue oor die bestendigheid van die regering van nasionale eenheid en bevestig hulle sal plaaslike regeringskwessies doeltreffend aanspreek. Hy het onderneem om sy termyn te voltooi mits hy steeds die steun van die ANC het. Ramaphosa het tydens ʼn gesprek met die media gevra vir verskerpte pogings teen korrupsie, verbeterde dienslewering en ondersteuning van plaaslike ekonomiese ontwikkeling om ʼn ondersteunende omgewing vir belegging te skep.

Oud-Springbok en bekende rugbykommentator Breyten Paulse het ekslusief met Kosmos 94.1 Sportnuus oor die span gepraat.
Wanderers speel vanmiddag teen Unam in die NRU Premierliga. Die klub se top twee spanne van beide die Premierliga en Reserweliga speel vanmiddag met die premierliga wedstryd wat om kwart voor vier afskop. Wanderers afrigter Dirk Human het met Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gepraat.
NamWater het verskeie tenders rakende boorgate uitgesit, onder meer vir agt produksie boorgate en vier moniterings gate by Berg Aukas. Dertien boorgate is ook vir die Opuwo-gebied aangevra en ses boorgate moet gerehabiliteer en vervang word. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gepraat met Abraham Nehemia, NamWater se uitvoerende hoof, wat sê hierdie boorgate is nie die enigste projek waarmee hulle besig is nie. Hy gee meer inligting.
Alhoewel MIV steeds beduidend voorkom onder vroue van reproduktiewe ouderdom, het Namibië groot vordering gemaak in sy stryd teen MIV. Die land sal volgende maand amptelike erkenning ontvang vir sy Wêreld Gesondheid Organisasie sertifisering vir die uitskakeling van moeder-na-kind oordrag van MIV en Hepatitis B. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gesels met Walters Kamaya, die skakelbeampte van die gesondheidsministerie, wat sê die organisasie sal Namibië vereer by die eerste Afrika gesondheids-werkmag Beleggings-forum van 6 tot 8 Mei in Windhoek.
Dr. Will O'Connor takes us through the nuances of using running power in training. Will and Dirk get into the scientific side of power meters, discuss the accuracy and data consistency from devices like Stryd and other wearables, and learn how to use critical power zones to break down the metabolic costs of running variable terrain. Will also touches on some of the lessons in his Fundamentals of Running Power TrainingPeaks University course. Will is a running scientist and former triathlete based in New Zealand. He drew on his background in organic chemistry to complete a Ph.D. in Sport & Exercise Science from Massey University, where his research investigated metabolic flexibility and ketogenic diets in ultra-endurance performance. Will competes at the elite level in ultrarunning events — he's used a run power meter since day one — and is a coach and host of the "Running with Dr Will" podcast.
The 128th Boston Marathon is done and dusted! It was a gorgeous day on the course for spectators, which means the heat posed a bit of a challenge for the runners out there. In this episode, we talk to Veronique Ranger, Seamus Woods, Pedro Gomes about their builds to Boston and their experience on race day. Three different athletes, three different builds, and three different race approaches. And one banana.

Die buurland se departement van bosbou, visserye en die omgewing het 'n plan ter waarde van 2,67 miljard Suid-Afrikaanse rand oor vyf jaar van stapel gestuur om indringerplante hok te slaan deur die Werk vir Water-program. Hy beoog om jaarliks 38 839 werksgeleenthede te skep, met die fokus op landelike gemeenskappe. Indringerspesies bedreig bioverskeidenheid, waterbronne en lewensbestaan, wat vloede en veldbrande vererger.

This week's episode of The Sunday Shakeout features part two of my guide on monitoring and controlling your running intensity. Last week, I talked about monitoring and controlling running intensity from an input perspective, meaning how much physiological effort the body is putting into running. This includes, perceived effort, heart rate, and lactate. This week, I am going to be talking about monitoring and controlling intensity from an output perspective. Output, with regards to intensity, relates to performance metrics, like pace and power. With this episode, as well as last week's episode, runners will be able to confidently monitor and control their running intensity so that they can make the most out of their training. I hope you enjoy this episode of The Sunday Shakeout. IMPORTANT: The entrance of power to the sport of running is one that was met with many questions. Therefore, in this episode, I will be giving an introduction to power and I will explain what the companies like Stryd are really measuring with their power meters. I will set aside a future episode delegated completely to power. The information related to power is overwhelming, confusing, and complicated, so if you are mind-boggled with some of this power information, then take it with a grain of salt. In my opinion, there are better methods of controlling intensity than with a power meter, which, as you will see, are essentially just real-time calorie counters that give you insights into how hard you are working.

“One of my colleagues said this in a meeting, and I've heard this before, but it really had an impact on me during 2020/2021. It's the Mia Angelou poem where she says, and I'm paraphrasing to a degree here, ‘You may not remember what I said. You may not remember what I did. But you'll remember how I made you feel.' That right there is it. That's what we can all do in our own little space: have people feel amazing, have a great experience, walk away with a smile on their face.” Last year, Ted Metellus made history when he was named the race director of the New York City Marathon. Not only that, he became the first Black race director of any of the World Marathon Major races. In 2020, New York Road Runners faced criticism and allegations of discrimination and racism and vowed to make changes within its leadership roles and internal structure to make things better. The move with Metellus also came at a time when the running industry was coming back from a year full of cancellations and postponements for major races. New York Road Runners canceled all in-person races from March 2020 to September 2020. In this episode, you'll learn more about how an event like that comes together but also learn a bit about Ted's story from growing up as a kid in the Bronx to lessons he learned from the entertainment industry and other sports. He's so down to earth. We recorded this conversation in late February at the Running USA Conference. For this episode, I'm joined by Joshua and Aaron Potts of the 2 Black Runners Podcast.

Nell Rojas joins the CITIUS MAG Podcast for the first time after finishing as the top American at the Boston Marathon for the second time in a row. The Boulder-based running coach placed 10th over in a new personal best of 2:25:57 – which took 75 seconds off her time from her sixth place finish last October in Boston. In this episode, we go through her build-up to this race which wasn't perfect and then the decision-making process into leaving her contract with Adidas that she signed in April to run in a pair of Nike VaporFly shoes. We touch on the conversation around unsponsored runners since her decision to ditch the contract has been a topic of discussion on Twitter and message boards. Plus: Why representation matters for her as a Latina on the start line of these major races, where she sees herself in the U.S. marathoning scene + much more. Outside of running, she's a strength and running coach based in Boulder Colorado. For this episode, I'm joined by David Melly for a crossover episode with the Run Your Mouth Podcast.

"When I pass someone, I think: Poker face and pass them with authority. You don't want to give someone hope. There are a lot of opportunities to feel sorry for yourself in a marathon. I don't want someone that I'm going by to have a little something to fight for. I want to put them away immediately.” Scott Fauble makes his return to the CITIUS MAG Podcast after taking seventh at the Boston Marathon in a personal best of 2:08:52, which moves him to No. 10 on the all-time U.S. list. He is the third-fastest active U.S. marathoner. This was a big performance for Scott since he shook things up a bit toward the end of 2020 by leaving his sponsor Hoka and parting ways with coach Ben Rosario and Northern Arizona Elite. He eventually teamed up with coach Joe Bosshard and spent the past few months in Colorado to prepare for Boston. We catch up on the decision-making process behind that, his brilliant race tactics in Boston, how he's shifted his thinking after a big performance and what's got him excited about the future. We also go through a bunch of the listener questions that you submitted on Instagram.

"There was an academy called the Transcend Running Academy. That's where I came through. It's sponsored by (2012 Boston Marathon champion) Wesley Korir. I was working out with Wesley when I was in Kenya during high school. He taught me most of the things about running. I didn't know I would make it in running but when he started talking to me about the benefits of going to school and continuing running, I started being serious in those two areas.” Wesley Kiptoo is the 2021 NCAA Indoor 5000m champion and put together a third and second-place finish at the last two NCAA cross country championships. He was a standout star at Iowa State but now it's time for a new chapter in his career. Wesley has decided to turn professional and sign with Hoka's NAZ Elite. He will be training under coach Ben Rosario and he will be making his debut tonight in the 5000m at the Mt. SAC Relays. While in college, Wesley shows fierce competitiveness by pushing the pace from the front. He earned himself personal bests of 13:14.74 for the 5K and 27:37 for the 10K. In this episode, you'll hear about his big goals as a pro but also a dive into his personal history with the sport. This signing is a dream come true as he hoped to be a pro runner while growing up in Kenya running and walking 40 kilometers to and from school most days. I hope you get to learn more about him and keep tabs on his future as a pro.

“I want to isolate everyone because I run by myself. If everyone gets isolated and they're running by themselves, that's a huge advantage for me. I don't need a pack to run with. I do 100% of my hard training alone. I want to get people alone. I want to sucker people into going harder on the downhills...You have to have that mentality that I'm coming to mess people up. That's what I think about in a race – just having that raw competitiveness." Brooks pro runner CJ Albertson has been a pretty highly-requested guest on this show because people can see some of the untraditional training runs that he throws down on Strava. But if you ask him, he doesn't think it's wild. In this episode, we discuss his rise on the US marathoning scene where he popped off to a lot of people when he led last year's Boston Marathon for 21 miles and finished 10th. He just ran 2:12 at the Modesto Marathon with three weeks to go until the big race. The catch is that was led off course by the lead bike for a bit. His 26.2 watch split was 2:10. So he's fit and ready to throw down on marathon Monday.

"Boston is such a crazy race. I feel like if you can get to the start line feeling healthy and you've run on the course before and I've done that and I know it races, crazy things happen there. If I'm on the starting line, I'm going to give myself a chance. Last fall was really tough because I wasn't fit and I didn't totally want to be on the start line but we said, 'Eh, we'll just go out and try.' I feel like I'm still building back up from just that. I don't love my odds but if I'm healthy on the line, I'm not like, 'I have no shot.' I'm always going to give myself a chance." I believe this is 2018 Boston Marathon champion and 2x U.S. Olympian Des Linden's third time on the show and the first since 2020 when we may have enjoyed a bit too much whiskey on the air but it was the pandemic so who could blame us. In this episode, we catch up on everything she's been up to including training for this year's race, her foray into broadcasting with NBC, our shared love for Formula 1, where she sees her career right now and much more. It's always a pleasure to kick back with one of U.S. marathoning's all-time greats.

"It's almost criminal these days how little the shot put gets coverage-wise. You can say it's arguably the best it's ever been all-time...What I'm trying to do is to bring people to watch and think that guy is not only really good at what he's doing but looks really good doing it...I also think that shot putters – when it comes to the people that I've met around the world – are some of the best personalities. I think we have some of the funniest guys out there." Nick Ponzio is a shot putter who represents Italy on the global championship stage. He just took seventh at the World Indoor Championships. He is an electric follow on Instagram – @chubbydiamonds on there. He just recently threw a 21.83m personal best at the European Winter Throws Cup to open his outdoor season. He is originally from San Diego, grew up in Temecula, went to the University of Florida before transferring to USC. He also spent some time training post-collegiately in Arizona with Ryan Whiting but is now based in Nashville and coaching at Belmont. We go through his career trajectory up until this point, talk about his decision to compete for Italy, examine the depth of U.S. shot put, what he hopes to see improved around the coverage of the throws and much more.

"Every time we race, records are looking to be broken or new records are looking to be set. Just like us being out there competing against each other, there's definitely a chance of us getting a record each time we go out there." In this episode, we speak with Sophia Gorriaran. She is a junior at Moses Brown School in Providence, Rhode Island. She's truly a special athlete who comes from a family of runners yet showcases even more athleticism by being a star on her school's lacrosse team as well. Last summer, she qualified for the U.S. Olympic Trials and ran her outdoor personal best of 2:02.26 in the first round of the Olympic Trials just five days after she turned 16 years old. This winter, she ran 2:00.58 and finished fourth in the same race against pros and collegiate athletes that Roisin Willis broke the high school record. Sophia also got under Sammy Watson's previous record from 2017 to put herself at No. 2 on the all-time high school girls 800m list. At New Balance Nationals, she raced the 400, the 800 (where she finished second to Roisin) and mile so she can do it all and the best part is that there's still an extra year to chase the record.

"I think that's why we're running so well. We just all push each other to be the best. We realize that none of us will be the one star. We're all going to share this together. I think that's what makes it really special. They just push me to be a better athlete. I'm just glad that we're all willing to race each other all the time and push each other and break the limits of high school running." In this episode, we speak with Roisin Willis. She is a senior at Stevens Point Area High School in Wisconsin. That's the same high school that has produced track and field greats like Chris Solinsky and Suzy Favor Hamilton. Roisin is already one of the next big stars. Last year, she qualified for the U.S. Olympic Trials when she ran 2:00.78 at the Trials of Miles NYC meet and then ended up reaching the semifinals in Eugene. The fast times continued this indoor season as she ran 2:00.06 to break the high school girls indoor 800m record. The previous record was 2:01.78 set in 2017 by Sammy Watson. She capped her indoor season with a win in the 800 at New Balance Nationals. Next year she's taking her talent to Stanford so there's plenty of excitement about that.

"I would rather race them and get pulled along to a fast time and possibly get second or third instead of going and running on my own and maybe having to do a bit of extra work to get a faster time or maybe not even get that fast of a time. My mind is set on not really caring so much about winning and losing but getting a fast time." In this episode, we speak with Juliette Whittaker. She is a senior at Mount de Sales Academy in Catonsville, Maryland. Juliette is a super talented athlete who isn't one to back away from competition and throw herself in the mix for some fast times in the process. Last year, she ran an 800m personal best of 2:01.15 in Westchester, Pennsylvania and then reached the semifinal of the U.S. Olympic Trials at 17 years old. This indoor season, she ran the high school indoor 1000m record with a 2:39.41 and clocked the third-fastest high school indoor 800m time in 2:01.69. At New Balance Nationals, she led the mile wire-to-wire to run a personal best of 4:37.23, which is the fourth-fastest by a high school girl in U.S. history. She is committed to Stanford next year and as you'll hear in this episode, her sense of humor will quickly make her an athlete whose career you'll want to follow.

"I was never in it for the money or the fame. But if you really think about it, I had more gold medals than Allyson Felix individually. I have more medals – if I'm not mistaken – than Usain Bolt individually. Yeah, it sucks but it all goes back to how the track takes over the field. It's just unfortunate but again, I feel like I was put on this earth to inspire and not to be that person. That's just not who I was put on this earth to be. I never really dwelled on it. Do I feel like I was underappreciated? Yeah, of course. It's track and field. I'm definitely underappreciated if we're talking real talk. I'm not on that type of time or type of level. I just never really cared about things like that. But, I am the MJ of long jump though. I feel like I am that." My guest for this episode is one of the greatest track and field athletes of all-time. She doesn't get the credit she deserves. It's the one and only Brittney Reese aka B Reese aka Da Beast. She is the Michael Jordan of the long jump. She was the 2012 Olympic champion and the Olympic silver medalist in 2016 and 2021. She won four world outdoor titles (2009, 2011, 2013 and 2017). She won three world indoor titles (2010, 2012 and 2016). She is a 13x U.S. champion. She was a two-time NCAA champion at the University of Mississippi. With all of those accomplishments, you'd think her face would be plastered on billboards or commercials in the leadup to the world championships or Olympics but it rarely was. After her silver at last year's Tokyo Olympics, she decided to retire…or so we think. As you'll hear in this episode, the door might be open for a possible comeback. My cohost, Jasmine Todd, and I touch on what can be done better to market and showcase the jumps + what's next for Da Beast as a coach and mother.
