Podcasts about surf coast century

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.

Episode 44 - New Level, New Devil with Lucy Bartholomew  We recently caught up with Lucy, an athlete we can only describe as on a whole another level!   She ran her first race, the Surf Coast Century 100k, alongside her father, and after that success kept coming and in 2017 she raced in fifteen ultras and was the first place female in eight of them. After she triumphed at Western States, she gained 50,000 followers on her instagram which gave her the opportunity to share her journey. And now from trail runner to Ironman she continues to show the world how adaptable and resilient she really is and no wonder she has been sponsored by brands like Salomon Australia, Suunto, Spring Energy, Julbo and Le Bent. In todays episode we talk about her upbringing and what got her started with trail running, her journey throughout her running career and the lows she faced. We also dive into keeping your perspective right with a mindful attitude and life advice on how to pursue your purpose if you feel like giving up. As we discuss her upcoming Ironman in Kona and UTMB trail run. Expect many more inspiring stories to come from Lucy as she continues to pave the path to greatness.  Thanks For Listening in and Enjoy!

This week's episode is a super inspiring and lively conversation with Brisbane based, ultra distance trail runner, Meagan Brown. If you haven't listened to her husband's episode, you can check out Sammy's interview in Episode 20 and compare tales! Meagan's energy is magnetic! She shares with us her journey from being someone who didn't even really like running initially, albeit competed in all the sports growing up, to someone who has now been running for ten years, competitively. Meagan talks to us about a pivotal moment in her life - a spiritual experience she enjoyed while hiking Kokoda Track in Papa New Guinea at a junction in life - which gave her new found independence and confidence and inspired her to seek out more adventure outdoors. This evolved from ticking off trails on a map of her local National Park to completing the Oxfam Trailwalker 100km. After reading Scott Jurek's Eat and Run she was inspired to try solo events and tackled the Surf Coast Century 100km, finding she preferred this solo style of racing. Meagan has since completed numerous ultramarathons and road marathons and her life has taken a fantastic course since her first half marathon (Gold Coast Marathon) just for fitness, where she walked from the 18km mark, to now being a regular on the trail podium both in South East Queensland and beyond. We hear her awesome story of the massive contrast between her first 75km Buffalo Stampede - a sky run with 4500m vert. (which she signed up for not understanding “vert”) and ended up crying on the side of a mountain; chasing cut offs and coming through the finish as they were deflating the Finish arch; to her strong victory at this same event last year.  Excitingly, after five lottery entries for the iconic Western States Endurance Run, Meagan has landed a place on the start line this year and we can't wait to hear how she goes in her first miler in the USA! Side note - there are 378 prized places for this race - as we quote a variety of entry numbers across the last two episodes!  We also chat about the representation of women in sport and Meagan's side hustles, including Queensland Trail Queens - an initially “Gossip Girl” style Instagram account borne out of frustration and anger with the lack of and inconsistent coverage between men and women. We also hear about a co-hosted project, Ladies of the Trail Brisbane - an inclusive introductory and social level trail running group. We are excited to hear that Meagan has started her own run coaching business, Shakeout, designed specifically for female athletes and we wish her every success!  Meagan is sponsored by Spring Energy and The Trail Co and also makes reference to Ultra Trail Lavaredo, to Jessica Schluter winning Ultra Easy, and of course, to the Brownie's fur children, Mo Furah and Scottie Puppen!!  You can find Meagan on Instagram at @megatron_brown Don't forget about our Patreon page at www.patreon.com/intotheweehourspodcast - we are so grateful for all of your support!

Although she's only 25, Lucy Bartholomew has been competing in ultras for a decade.  She ran her first, the Surf Coast Century 100k, alongside her father, and the successes kept coming. In 2017 she raced in fifteen ultras and was the first place female in eight of them.  The following year she ran her first 100 mile race, Western States, and finished third in the women's race.  All of those medals came at a cost, however, and for a time she lost her love of running.  Today she talks about how she regained her joy in the sport and now appreciates it more fully than she ever did before. “People asked what happened when the numbers went up, but when the numbers were so low that I was clearly unwell, no one asked any questions. In fact I was put on a pedestal.” Lucy participated in a project at a heart institute in 2018, the year she triumphed at Western States.  Her numbers were incredibly low - body fat under 12% and a heart rate so slow that it didn't register on the lab's equipment. The doctors were amazed and impressed; it was “like a hall of fame moment,” she recalls. But those levels were impossible to maintain, and when she went back a year later, the numbers were all higher.  She was stronger and healthier, but the reaction was, “oh, you're out of that elite athlete percentile and you're like, normal, God forbid.” “ I remember sitting there,” she says, “and just being like, my photo's just gone off the wall of fame, and I'm now this normal human, which is just not good enough for their standards.” “Overnight I gained 50,000 followers on Instagram.  So 50,000 people started following me and they started following a version of Lucy that was not sustainable.” After Lucy crossed the Western States' finish line in 2018, she suddenly had tens of thousands of new followers, who only knew her at her thinnest.  When she gained weight after the race, people's comments made her start to question herself. “It just puts a grain of sand into your mind, just kind of like, am I doing everything wrong?”  By the end of 2019, that grain of sand had become a sandcastle. “I think that I had lost the race of Western States before I had even begun.” Running Western States in 2018 had been a joyful experience. She remembers an article that was written about her, saying how super-stoked she was. “And I was,” she says, “I was just like, oh my God, I can't believe I'm in this position. I didn't come here to lead the race. I'm in front of Courtney freaking Dauwalter, like what is going on?”  When she ran it again the next year, everything had changed.  She was in the worst headspace of her life, and says, ”if I have one regret in my running career - I don't use the word regret - but I disrespected that race. I ran it, but I didn't love it. I despised the fact that I was out there. I endured it, which the previous year, I enjoyed it, not endured.” She hadn't looked at her watch for the first nine hours of the 2018 race  because she was loving it so much.  But in 2019, she says, “I looked at my watch for the first time probably a mile in and went, ‘is that all we've done?'”   “I don't love this anymore, and I've always said that I would stop the moment that I outrun my love for running.” In retrospect, she knew that she should have rested after the 2018 Western States, but she kept racing.  “Then the Christmas season I chilled out a little bit,” she says, “had my three days off for the year, God forbid.”  She resumed her schedule of back-to-back ultras in the new year.  Thinking about her racing calendar, she says, “I'm like, you are an absolute goose, Lucy. Who do you think you are, standing on all those start lines and doing that to your body?” “I learned from Western States that I won't stand on the start line if my head and heart aren't in it.”  Lucy had raced the Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc (UTMB) seven times and loved it, but when she arrived in Chamonix in 2019, she says, “I was like, I really just want to sit at a cafe and chill out, and sit in the river and do something else.  I just want to get the chairlift up. Like, do we have to run?” “To be a great runner, you have to have the ability to run but then also to be able to cheer on others.” She dropped out of the UTMB, but instead of sulking because “this was just turning into the absolute crumble of the year,” she decided to support the people who were racing.  She explains that when she was younger and would spectate as her dad raced, “I started to realize that you can be on the sideline and you can just be miserable about the fact that you're not in the race or you can be on the sideline and you can make people's day.”  She left Chamonix feeling proud that she'd respected herself enough to pull out of the race, and happy that “I was able to still be a part of the sport that I love, because whilst I wasn't loving the act of running, I love the philosophy and the community of running, and that's more important to me than any race ever.” “It was just the most beautiful experience that put me in a position where it was kind of like, this is what matters.” The lockdowns in Australia during the Covid-19 pandemic gave Lucy an opportunity to reset.  After only being allowed one hour of running a day, 5 km from her house, she was ready for a challenge. She and two friends decided to run the extremely difficult Larapinta Trail in the Northern Territory of Australia.  There were times on the trail that were “really, really tough,” but at the end, when the community came out for the finish, she realized that “this is why I love this sport and this is what I want to do. I want to tell stories and I want to show places to people and I want to create community.” The past few months presented Lucy with a different kind of challenge.  She was diagnosed with cancer in one eye and has undergone surgery to remove the tumor.  But the love and support she received when she revealed her diagnosis on social media have made her realize that people care about her as a person, not only about her appearance and her ability as a runner.  Now she's eager to get back out on the trails. “I can be a part of the community and I can be out where I love, in nature, and that's kind of what I've taken away from a really challenging few months.” Resources: Lucy's Instagram “Running Out,” the documentary about Lucy running the Larapinta Trail Lucy's website Lucy's podcast interview with Dylan Bowman   Thank you to Tracksmith, InsideTracker, and Zencastr for sponsoring this episode.

You would be hard pressed to find someone in the ultra running & trail community who doesn't know Lucy Bartholomew. She's been a 'rule bender' since she entered the ultra arena at the age of 15 when she took part in the Surf Coast Century 100km event. Running alongside her ultra running Dad, she took his instructions and ran with a smile on her face ear-to-ear in an attempt to dismantle the controversy that a minor (under the age of 18) was too young to be racing an endurance event. Fast forward 9 years - Lucy is a professional ultra athlete sponsored by Salomon Australia, Suunto, SPRING energy and Le Bent. She travels the globe racing and facilitating running workshops and retreats. In 2017, Lucy had her breakout year when she ran 15 events and was the first female in 8 of them. In 2018 with single minded focus she pushed her personal boundaries and placed third in the highly contested Western States 100 in California, her 100 mile debut. With reflection and time, Lucy now see's this result in a more holistic perspective. Although proud of what she achieved, Lucy discusses the toll she placed on her body, mind and spirit to achieve that result. That intensity was not sustainable and she is still working through the consequences of it. We discuss the challenges and pressures of the sport, in addition to the freedom and depth of experience it has given her. Lucy's candour is refreshing. We discuss LOTS in this conversation including: her rise onto the international racing arena. The internal and external turmoil of neglecting recovery and the long term toll endurance racing can have if you are not mindful & healthy. Her growth mindset for new experiences ~ inside and beyond running. How she processes both public scrutiny and praise. Her love of plant based food and for sharing her learnings with her community. In my eyes Lucy is far more than an ultra runner ~ she is an entrepreneur who designs and sells Team Lucy kit; she is an advocate for the environment and will soon be a self published author of a recipe book.... and she's only just getting started! I hope you enjoy!!! Please subscribe to receive new podcasts as they come!!

With the INEOS Sub 2 challenge not far away, Kenya’s Geoffrey Kamworor grabbed his moment of glory in the lead up by establishing a new World’s best time for the Half Marathon in Copenhagen. Hamish and Tim contemplate a Kamworor v Eliud Kipchopge showdown over the marathon distance. Ash Watson did some record breaking of his own, this time over the trails and beaches of the Surf Coast where he won the 100km event in under 8hrs. With AV Shield not far away, discussion turns to the new AVSL concept and how it will hopefully change up team based track and field athletics across Victoria. Some additional athletes have been added to the Australian team bound for Doha and we also look forward to the Victorian Trail Running Championships and Melbourne Marathon Festival. We wrap the episode with our first bloopers out take, so hang on to the bitter end for an amusing conclusion to the podcast.

Matt is joined with Co Host Paul Hadfield to interview Chris Truscott. Running & racing is a way of life for Chris and his wife Greta who run the family friendly Rejoov Runners from Sydney's Centennial Park. Chris has a long affinity with many of Sydney's iconic running events. He first completed Sydney's City to Surf when he was just 9 years old, running 63mins. In 1987 at the age of 13, he ran 53mins and he has competed in every single City to Surf since (over 30 of them) with a PB of 45:44, he has run 25 consecutively under 49mins! Chris's first marathon was the 1993 Melbourne race. We're not sure why he was so keen to start running marathons at the age of 18, but he loved it and was happy to finish in a 3:13.26. Chris has gone on to compete in over 30 marathons including Berlin, Chicago, Rotterdam, London, Tokyo, New York and local ones - Sydney, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Melbourne & Canberra with a PB of 2:29:44 coming in 2002 in one of his four Berlin finishes. All his subsequent marathon times since debut have been under 3hrs. Chris has managed to maintain his longevity with running via a balanced approach to life and to the sport. At 45yrs, he continues to compete across a wide spectrum of events. Whether it's a 5000m track time trial, 10km road race, half marathon or marathon, or a 100km trail or road race.

He's a father of four and runs a local gym in Geelong with his wife. But he's also a Guinness World Record holder and just completed 535 consecutive half marathons in June 2019.  In Episode 4 of the Rapid Ascent podcast we interview running machine and 2019 Surf Coast Century participant, Matt Daniels.  He's incredibly humble despite his achievements. And he's raised almost $100,000 for charity doing some crazy running adventures. Now find out why he just completed 535 consecutive half marathons for a mate he's never met. We talk at length about the Surf Coast Century too.  Here’s Episode 4 of the Rapid Ascent podcast with Matt Daniels.  And your host, Ben Hucker.P.S. We're looking for lots of volunteers for this year's Surf Coast Century. If you'd like to help us out on the day then let us know by REGISTERING your details.

The Outback is a large expanse of rough, barren desert that can cause serious problems when exposed day after day to shadeless, intense heat. With a July 2019 start date, we're taking advantage of the cooler, drier months to make the crossing, avoiding extreme temperatures and washed-out roads. While there is a more direct route connecting Darwin to Adelaide via the Stuart Highway, we've chosen to avoid the more trafficked paved routes in favor of dirt roads. This approach keeps us away from potential dangers like increased traffic, while also introducing the logistical difficulty of scant resupply options and many hundreds of miles without services. More intriguing, yes. More difficult, most definitely. It's worth noting that we - Katie and Henley - are in no way professionals. Professional goofballs, that's about it! We're just audacious dreamers with a healthy dose of optimism that things will work out and a desire to push ourselves. That said, we are experienced outdoors-people with several thousand miles of solo and tandem travel of this nature, and we have inspired heads on our shoulders. We understand the risks of the project and are responsible and intelligent enough to figure it all out with passion and humility. If you want to track Katie and Henley's current trip across Australia, check out their website and Garmin live tracker at katievisco.com They would love you to send them a message!

He talks about finding the ‘flow state', the optimal state a person can be in when competing. Rory explains how breathing practices can help manage performance anxiety pre-event. He talks about managing the ‘inner critic', the voice in our head that gives us negative feedback. He explains the benefits of reassurance prior to events with self talk such as; why am I hear, what have I got to lose?

Perhaps the most powerful question you can ask yourself is - what do I need? There is no-one better equipped to help us answer that question than Kemi Nekvapil. Kemi is, quite simply, a force of nature. A pioneer in the raw food movement in Australia, Kemi is now an accredited executive and personal coach. She’s committed to helping women like you and I change how we feel about ourselves and how we express ourselves, so we can set boundaries and pursue what we want from life, without guilt or apology. She’s also a powerful speaker as those who attended Sparta Chicks Unleashed 2018 will attest. Plus she’s a trail and ultra marathon runner. Kemi has completed 11 x marathon distances races, plus a 100km race, the Surf Coast Century, in 2016. So she ‘gets’ us! Kemi was my ‘secret weapon’ during 2018.  She was my coach for 6 months throughout the year and I can hand-on-heart say Sparta Chicks Unleashed would not have happened if not for her support. In this conversation we discuss: - what an underwear shopping trip at 13 with her fifth set of foster parents taught her a powerful lesson about choice, - how she was able to reach a point of having ‘presence’ and unshakeable confidence, - the powerful realisation that led her into executive and personal coaching, - how she discovered running and what trail running gives her, - whether our difficulties with asking for help is the reason so many women (myself included) arrive in our 30s and 40s and realise we’ve lost a bit of ourselves and we don’t know who we are or what we like anymore, - how setting boundaries and asking for what you need in a clean and clear way empowers other people to do the same, - what Kemi would like you to do in 2019 in order to thrive (and also why you’re also allowed to pivot once you’ve decided).
