This week I sat down with Matt Formston AM, and I genuinely don't know where to start with this one.At five years old, Matt was told he would go blind and never hold down a job or play sport. The doctors were half right. Matt did go blind. But everything else they said? He has spent his entire life proving wrong.Matt is a four-time Adaptive Surfing World Champion, a World Champion cyclist, an Australian Paralympian, and holds the Guinness World Record for the largest wave ever surfed by any para-athlete in history. He has had an award-winning Netflix documentary made about him — The Blind Sea — and has just released his debut book Why Not? through Wiley, out now.We talk about what it actually takes to trust someone with your life on the biggest waves in the world, the mental health challenges that don't always make the highlight reel, what resilience really looks like when the odds are stacked against you from the age of five, and why the word "can't" has never really stuck with Matt.We also get into his next chapter — Matt has become a world class free diver and is heading to Tonga in August to freedive with humpback whales. Because of course he is.This is one of the most extraordinary human beings I have ever had the privilege of sitting down with. This one will change the way you think about limits.In this episode we cover:Being told at five he would go blind and never work or play sportFour-time Adaptive Surfing World Champion and Guinness World Record holder at NazaréWorld Champion cyclist and Australian ParalympianThe Netflix documentary The Blind SeaThe role of trust on the biggest waves in the worldMental health, resilience and life at the edgeHis new book Why Not? and the message behind itFreediving shipwrecks and swimming with humpback whales in TongaMatt's Book — Why Not? https://www.amazon.com.au/Why-Not-Breaking-Limits-Business/dp/1394434626Matt's Website https://www.mattformston.com/Follow MattInstagram https://www.instagram.com/mattformston/?hl=enConnect with Cooper Workshop and Speaking Enquiries https://form.typeform.com/to/DSPSnvEH 1% Good Club Book https://booktopia.kh4ffx.net/e1xrkr https://amzn.to/46ve1i2 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/cooperchapman/ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@cooperchapman_ LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/cooper-chapman-08a278151/ The Good Human Factory Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thegoodhumanfactory/ The Good Human Factory https://www.thegoodhumanfactory.com THE GOOD HUMAN FACTORY™️ 2020 Hosted on Acast.

Gina Johansen is a Swedish-born endurance athlete, adventurer, and a track work rider based in Sydney and Norway. She is currently preparing for a world record attempt to become the fastest woman to ski solo and unsupported to the South Pole in 2026. She grew up on a horse farm in Sweden, where her love for horses and the outdoors began early. Gina spent eight years riding trackwork for leading Thoroughbred racing stables in Australia and is now back riding racehorses in Sydney alongside her polar training. Her previous expeditions include becoming the first woman to cross Lake Baikal in Siberia solo by foot, skiing solo from North Cape to Jäckvik, crossing Svalbard on skis, cycling 2700km from Sydney to Cairns, and hiking the full length of Norway with her partner and their dog. She also spent eight years living near North Cape, the northernmost point of Europe, training in extreme Arctic conditions. Through her journey, Gina hopes to inspire others—especially women—to push beyond their limits, take on big challenges, and discover what they're truly capable of. *** New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)!

Gold and silver ended the week relatively steady, but beneath the surface, major global events continue to reshape the precious metals landscape. As U.S. debt approaches the historic $40 trillion mark, Japan stunned currency markets with one of the largest yen interventions ever, underscoring mounting pressure on the global fiat system. Meanwhile, the Perth Mint captured headlines by unveiling a new Guinness World Record gold bar refined to an extraordinary 99.999% purity. We also examine what these developments could mean for gold, silver, and investor sentiment in the months ahead. Listen to this week's market update for the full analysis and key charts.
“You can't recreate the feeling that Josh created for me as a coach in any synthetic way. It had to have been done the way that he did it.”My guest for today's episode is Danny Mackey, the head coach of the Brooks Beasts Track Club.Almost two weeks before we recorded this, Josh Kerr ran 3:42.66 at the London Diamond League and took 47 hundredths of a second off Hicham El Guerrouj's mile world record — a mark that had been on the books for 27 years. Danny is the guy who wrote the training for it. He's been coaching Josh for eight years now and this year he's also got Brandon Miller running 1:42.19 to win in London seventy minutes before Josh's race. It was an epic day for the Brooks Beasts.This one is a coach's-eye reconstruction of how a world record actually gets built. We go back to the workouts in Albuquerque in 2024 when Danny first told Josh he thought the record was there. We get into the PowerPoint pitch to Brooks. Danny walks through how he writes training. We talk about the ninety-minute whiteboard meeting where a few grown men argued over tenths of a second for pacing and what Danny was thinking standing trackside with 350 meters to go. And finally, how this has transcended beyond the running community.The best part comes toward the end when he reveals who this was all for. We last had him on in 2023 after the World Championships after Josh won gold, so it was only fitting that we got him back on after another momentous occasion.____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSCORE: The CORE 2 Thermal Sensor takes the guessing out of heat training.

Every weekend it feels like another record falls.This week we're diving into one of the biggest stretches of performances trail running has seen in years. We break down Max Jolliffe and Carmen Pérez's record-setting runs at Badwater 135, Aurélien Sanchez's Pacific Crest Trail FKT, Josh Kerr's incredible mile world record, and what all of it says about where endurance sports are heading.We also talk about London's move to a two-day marathon, why FKTs continue to grow around the world, the culture surrounding iconic routes like the Bob Graham Round and GR20, and whether supported FKTs are becoming an entirely different discipline.Finally, we tackle the biggest topic in trail running right now: doping. Recent controversies have raised difficult questions about education, race organizers, governing bodies, and what clean competition should look like as the sport continues to grow.A fun conversation that starts with record-breaking performances... and somehow ends with bobbleheads.Support our Sponsors: Sawyer: https://sawyerdirect.net/Janji (code: Freeoutside): https://snp.link/a0bfb726CS Coffee: CSinstant.coffeeGarage Grown Gear: https://snp.link/db1ba8abSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside#Trailrunning #Runningnews #Outdoors #Outdooradventure

Ageless Athlete - Fireside Chats with Adventure Sports Icons
At 66, Joe Barr rode 2,448 miles along Route 66 in just over ten days and set a new world record.What makes that achievement even more remarkable is that Joe believes he became a better athlete in his sixties.In this conversation, Joe explains how experience changed the way he trains, recovers, manages fatigue, and responds when his mind tells him to stop.He also challenges the usual story about aging.Joe was told he was too old. Instead of accepting that judgment, he kept adapting, kept learning, and built a performance lifestyle around consistency, discipline, and intelligent recovery.We explore:• How Joe got faster in his sixties • Why experience can offset physical decline • The inner dialogue that keeps him moving • Why endurance is management, not macho toughness • How his training changed with age • What it means to protect the athlete • Why recovery becomes more important over timeThis is a conversation about adaptation, focus, self-determination, and how much may still be possible when we stop allowing age to define the boundaries of our lives.Connect with JoeJoe Barr on InstagramBarrUltra websiteJoe's Route 66 recordRoute 66 film projectJoe thanks his sponsor Hypershell X

My guest for today's episode is Josh Kerr – mile world record holder. On July 18th at the London Diamond League, in front of 60,000 people, Josh ran 3:42.66 to break Hicham El Guerrouj's record that had stood for 27 years, which was the longest-standing mile world record in the history of the event, and one that many believed might never fall. He did it by calling his shot four months in advance, locking himself into a specific date and venue before he had even finished rehabbing the calf he tore at the World Championships in Tokyo last September.Josh is already one of the most decorated middle-distance runners of his generation — world champion, two-time Olympic medalist, two-time world indoor champion at 3000 meters. But the world record puts him in a different category entirely. He is now the seventh Brit to hold the mile world record, and the first since Steve Cram in 1985, joining a line that runs through Roger Bannister, Seb Coe, Steve Ovett, and Steve Cram. The race commentator on the world feed, Tim Hutchings, called it the ballsiest world record in the history of middle-distance racing. It was hard to disagree.This conversation was recorded two days after the race, with Kyle Merber joining as co-host. We get into the full arc of Project 222. We go deep on the spike Brooks built specifically for his foot strike and what it actually contributed to the margin. Josh walks us through the whiteboard session in Albuquerque where they debated every split for an hour, the 1200m time trial two weeks out that converted the last remaining skeptics, the mental performance framework that kept him in flow state when 60,000 people were watching, and what was happening internally when he cracked that smile before the gun and went completely deaf with 150 meters to go.We also get into what Tokyo taught him, the cage door philosophy Danny Mackey lives by, and who the performance was really for…which is not the answer you might expect.____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSCORE: The CORE 2 Thermal Sensor takes the guessing out of heat training.

There are callers and then there are SHOTcallers. Which are you? Josh called his shot in the mile. 222! Kara is calling her shot in the half marathon (sort-of), and Des is backing them both up. She predicted that Josh would get the World Record, and now she is predicting that Kara will get her goal. This episode starts with the "normal" catch-up chat where Kara discusses her half marathon training (!), and Des shares the chaos of Ryan's sailing race. Thankfully, he made it back safely, but it was touch and go there for a moment. Then, they discuss Kara's experience joining the Flotrack Athlete's Lounge to follow the London DL. She gives some BTS intel and calls out all of the silly haters who love to watch, but then turn into online trolls. She is calling her shot by saying she would go toe-to-toe with any of you and win. Finally, they dig into all things London Diamond League. Keely v Femke! Brandon Miller! And, yes, of course they break down everything about the mile World Record. Josh called his shot and then controlled every single detail to make it look easy, even though we know it wasn't. He is a master of peaking for a single goal and showed that again here with absolute class. Congrats to Josh, his team, and to Brooks! It was a performance for the ages!

Peter and Gabby are back to break down one of the biggest moments of the track season: Josh Kerr's historic mile world record. They dive into what made the performance so special, why publicly chasing ambitious goals is refreshing to see, and what it says about the level of preparation required to compete at the very top of the sport.They also preview this week's USATF Championships, discuss Brandon Miller's recent breakthrough, and look ahead to the storylines they'll be following on the track. Along the way, they touch on wildfire smoke disrupting training, marathon fitness that doesn't always show up on race day, and why smaller marathons deserve more love.Of course, it wouldn't be Relay without a few tangents. Peter and Gabby debate track uniforms and TV coverage, laugh about running memes, discuss the latest internet discourse, and wonder why runners are always looking for the next ridiculous endurance challenge.

World-Class Numbers: Inside Colton Engelbreit's 2,700-Pound World Record Total Coach Phil opens the news segment with word that powerlifter Colton Engelbreit shattered the all-time world record total in Moscow, pulling roughly a 1,003-lb squat, 612-lb bench, and 1,086-lb deadlift for a total north of 2,700 pounds at a 265-lb bodyweight — beating the prior mark by over 100 pounds. The hosts marvel at how balanced his lifts are (no weak link) and reminisce that a 700-lb deadlift was 'elite' 15 years ago, while today many lifters in their teens and twenties are pulling similar numbers. They debate why standards have exploded: wider access to TRT and peptide-driven recovery, open sharing of training info on YouTube and social media (versus waiting months for the next magazine), kids starting serious lifting in their early-to-mid teens instead of their late 20s, and coaches accelerating athletes' progress by passing down decades of trial-and-error knowledge instead of making each generation re-learn it. Dr. Lonnie Lowery ties in classic overfeeding research, including the Vermont prison studies, to speculate that improved nutrient partitioning — not just sloppier bulking — may explain some of the added lean mass in modern lifters. The conversation closes on the psychology of record-breaking: training age versus biological age, how mental barriers (like the four-minute mile) collapse once someone proves a number is possible, and how seeing elite strength or size in person — rather than on video — permanently resets an athlete's sense of what's normal. 00:00 Welcome and Hosts 00:45 Wildfire Smoke and Air Quality Chat 01:45 Colton Engelbreit's New World Record Total 03:15 Breaking Down an Otherworldly Squat-Bench-Deadlift Total 04:30 How Fast Strength Standards Have Skyrocketed 05:45 TRT, Peptides, and Modern Recovery 07:00 Social Media and the Open Sharing of Training Knowledge 08:00 Bodybuilding vs Powerlifting Culture on Sharing Secrets 09:00 The Pace of Record-Breaking Across Generations 10:00 Younger Athletes Entering the Sport Earlier 11:10 Colton's Early Training Background 12:30 The Risk of Early Sport Specialization 13:30 The Case for Training Variety 14:30 Getting Bigger and Losing Mobility 15:30 Building a Base Before Specializing 16:35 Overfeeding Studies and Lean Mass Partitioning 17:40 Developmental Windows and Early Training Exposure 18:40 Mental Fortitude Built at a Young Age 19:40 Training Age vs Biological Age 20:40 Phil's Son and the Puberty Question 21:40 How Norms Shape an Athlete's Expectations 22:45 Breaking Mental Barriers Like the Four-Minute Mile 23:45 Finding a Gym With Stronger Lifters 24:45 The Power of Witnessing Greatness in Person 25:50 Adam Glass and the Inch Dumbbell Story 26:50 AI Skepticism and the Value of Seeing It Live 27:50 Up Close With Elite Bodybuilders and NFL Athletes 28:50 Standing on the Shoulders of Previous Generations 29:50 Coaches as Accelerators of Progress 31:00 Newton, Einstein, and Building on What Came Before 33:00 Wrap and Sign-Off Donate to the show via PayPal HERE.You can also join Dr Mike's Insider Newsletter for more info on how to add muscle, improve your performance and body comp - all without destroying your health, go to www.ironradiodrmike.com Thank you!Phil, Jerrell, Mike T, and Lonnie

Send us Fan MailWhat actually happens to the human body during a rapid decompression event? Today, we explore the grim reality of the 1983 Byford Dolphin accident, widely considered the worst diving disaster in history, before diving into some of the most bizarre news stories of the week.In this episode of The Days Grimm Podcast, Brian and Corey kick things off without Tom to deliver a brutal "Death of the Week" focused on the Byford Dolphin rapid decompression incident in the North Sea. After Tom finally arrives with a wild story about a neighborhood fireworks dispute, the crew shifts gears to discuss a bizarre lineup of weekly news. We cover the capture of a fugitive alligator named Erwin in Indiana, a record-breaking solo ocean row from California to Hawaii by a female athlete, and the strange economy of selling street trash from Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding. Finally, we explore a strange balloon-walking world record and uncover the pub-argument origins of the Guinness Book of World Records. This episode balances dark historical facts with the absolute absurdity of modern pop culture and local news. Viewers will learn the terrifying physics behind deep-sea saturation diving accidents, while also gaining a humorous perspective on just how strange human behavior can be—from hoarding celebrity trash to setting bizarre world records.

Chris Chavez and Preet Majithia reconvene to debrief the rest of the London Diamond League. Chris and Kyle Merber's emergency pod captured the immediate reaction; this episode is the follow-up, covering everything that got overshadowed by the world record.We discuss:– Preet in the building: Eight flights of stairs between the mixed zone and the seating area to watch Josh Kerr's world record run.– Post-race mixed zone: Josh got emotional exactly once — when Hannah England asked him about the mental toll of the entire process. His first beer since his December wedding was that Saturday night. For a Scotsman, six months without a beer is its own kind of suffering.– Was the world record overshadowed by the World Cup? The day before the World Cup final, England played France in a 6-4 third-place match the same evening. The next morning, BBC Sport's homepage had zero stories about Josh Kerr.– Does this get Josh knighted? Chris's very American question.– Does the mile world record mean as much globally as the 1500? Preet raises the question: the mile matters enormously in the US and UK, but does it land elsewhere?– Sawe vs. Kerr: which was bigger?– Women's 800m — Keely wins in 1:56.21: The pacemaker went through 400 in 56.8, suggesting they were targeting sub-1:55 but backed off — if she'd gone through in 55 flat as planned, it might have been a 1:55 race. Preet's context: this was Keely's 50th sub-2:00 performance and her nineteenth sub-1:57.– Would you rather have Josh's career or Keely's right now?The rest of London — the performances that got overshadowed:– Brandon Miller, 1:42.19 in the men's 800m: Nearly a full second PB, fifth all-time for Americans. Timed his kick off the final bend perfectly.– Julien Alfred, 21.66 in the women's 200: Third win in nine days.– Karsten Warholm, 46.61 in the 400 hurdles: World lead, first hurdles race win of the season, meeting record.– Ja'Kobe Tharp, 12.89 in the 110m hurdles: Fifth time under 13 seconds this season — the first athlete in history to go sub-13 in five consecutive 110m hurdles races.– Kayinsola Ajayi, 9.84 in the men's 100m: Beats world champion Oblique Seville for the second time this season — turns and looks at him as they cross the line.– Rai Benjamin, 44.05 PB in the men's 400m: Beats Matthew Hudson-Smith (44.18). First Diamond League 400m win.– Marileidy Paulino, 48.97 in the women's 400m: Fourth sub-49 this season.– Jess Hull wins the women's 3000m, 8:24.69: Fierce surge with 200 to go– Looking ahead: Josh Kerr to appear on the CITIUS MAG podcast Wednesday.

It costs less than a coffee, or a gel.Show notesThe big story this week is another Tour de France anti-doping row, with race leaders Tadej Pogačar and Jonas Vingegaard woken to give samples at 5am and 2am. But first, we discuss a forgettable World Cup final and a long overdue Mile world record(00:01:27) Spain beat Argentina to win the World Cup, in what Ross and Gareth reckon was the worst final in living memory. We discuss a game in which Argentina seemed intent on being regressive and aggressive, why the best player in the world was left stranded, the role fatigue and the extra day's rest may have played, and whether a solid tournament deserves better than a grudging seven out of ten.(00:16:14) Josh Kerr does exactly what he said he would and breaks Hicham El Guerrouj's 27 year old mile world record at the London Diamond League, running near-perfect 55 second laps on route to his 222. Point 66. We get into his near-perfect even pace, how wavelight technology has reduced the risk and unburdened the athlete to chase physiological limits, whether that cheapens anything, and why the 1500m record should surely be next.(00:35:23) The big story. Pogačar and Vingegaard were dope-tested at 5am and 2am on the morning of a mountain stage, and all hell broke loose. We explain why an 11pm to 6am block is normally sacrosanct and exempt from doping, but why allowances have to be made to test athletes within it on occasion. We the "serious and specific suspicion" exception that received judicial sign-off under French law, what that implies, and why we will probably never know. Vingegaard later crashed out with a broken collarbone, so we ask whether the two are linked, and the extent to which this is a wake-up call for cycling (and some of its fans), or just more of the same?(00:59:36) And finally, the Commonwealth Games open in Glasgow this weekend, pared back to ten sports and stuck behind a paywall. Did anyone notice? Has the world moved on? We say a fond, faintly baffled farewell.LinksSome stats from the one-sided World Cup FinalHow the Mile was won: Some analysis of Kerr's record, including the splits Gareth read outSome details on Josh Kerr's custom shoeRoss' brief thoughts on the early morning testing controversy on XMore detail on the exemption made, judicial approval and nature of suspicions (good), along with some speculation about Seixas and a call for transparency (silly)Vingegaard's team on the crash and possible reasons for it Hosted on Acast.

Dawn Stensland kicks off Monday's show celebrating a historic hometown triumph as comedian Shane Gillis breaks two world records at Lincoln Financial Field for the largest audience and most tickets sold for a stand-up performance. Joined by Dan Borowski, we break down the massive crowd dynamic, the surprise appearance by Dave Chappelle, and the star-studded Philly athlete turnout featuring Jason Kelsey. Dawn and the crew analyze Gillis's unique cultural appeal to young conservative and moderate males, highlighting how his decision to hire local Philadelphia production crew sets a fantastic example of giving back to his roots. We shift gears to look at the tragic fallout from a shooting in Kensington where two suspects targeted a homeless encampment, killing a defensive three-year-old dog named Buddy. Dawn takes a hard stance against the enablement of open-air drug markets, referencing how local initiatives like the "Kensington Cam" document a slow-motion tragedy that city leaders refuse to resolve. We debate the historical precedents of mental health institutionalization, the legal rulings from the 1980s under the Supreme Court, and why treating these encampments as "compassionate" only fuels an estuary of crime, sexual abuse, and human vulnerability. Finally, Frank Scales and Ian McGinnis from Surge Philly join the studio after taking their cameras directly into democratic strongholds in Brooklyn. We watch as they trail Trump-endorsed New York gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman, who is challenging Kathy Hochul by directly confronting small business owners about soaring electric bills and socialist grocery store takeovers. From engaging in impromptu dance-offs with anti-ICE sidewalk protesters at Foley Square to breaking down a developing incendiary device attack at the lower Manhattan federal building, the team proves that showing up to have tough conversations is the only way to shift the political needle. Plus, general manager Road Warrior calls out the guys, forcing them to commit to this Sunday's Families Behind the Badge "Ben to the Shore" bike ride.

Britain's Josh Kerr shattered the men's mile world record at the London Diamond League on Saturday, clocking a little over three minutes 42 seconds. He improved the 1999 record by nearly half a second.
Chris Chavez and Kyle Merber jump on the mics immediately following the London Diamond League as Josh Kerr ran 3:42.66 at the Novuna London Athletics Meet on Saturday, becoming the first person in history to break 3:43 in the mile and surpassing Hicham El Guerrouj's 3:43.13 set in Rome in 1999. The 2023 world 1500m champion delivered on every promise of Project 222 in front of 60,000 people at London Stadium.How it went down:Pacer Brannon Kidder hit 400m in 54.75 on world record tempo, led through 800m in 1:50.63, then stepped aside with Žan Rudolf at Kerr's instruction. Kerr hit 1200m in 2:46.39 and reached 1500m in 3:27.62 — faster than his own British record for the distance — before closing to the line alone. Yared Nuguse tracked him through the middle stages but couldn't match the closing pace, finishing second in 3:45.69. Jake Heyward was third in a PB of 3:46.73 and Robert Farken fourth in a German record of 3:46.82.The splits:- 400m: 54.75- 800m: 1:50.63- 1200m: 2:46.39- 1500m: 3:27.62- Mile: 3:42.66 WR
WOW!

He explains just how hard it is to run this event at the highest level, talks through how the race unfolded, and breaks down the perfectly executed pacing strategy that helped make history.Sarah, meanwhile, puts Josh's speed into context in her own way... by comparing it to the speed of a cat.

There's a reservoir of untapped potential inside you right now. The only question is whether you'll reach it. Colin O'Brady is the first person in history to cross Antarctica solo, completely unsupported and unaided, covering nearly 1,000 miles alone in 54 days while pulling a 375-pound sled through temperatures reaching minus 80 degrees wind chill. He's also a world record holder for the Explorers Grand Slam, having completed all Seven Summits and expeditions to both poles in 139 consecutive days -- a project he called The Impossible First. Before any of that, he was a 22-year-old backpacker in Thailand with 25% of his body severely burned, told by doctors he might never walk normally again. What pulled him through was a single visualization exercise, a mother who refused to let him see his own darkness, and a goal set from a hospital bed he had no business believing in. What you'll hear in this conversation is how he trained his mind more than his body, how flow states carried him through 32 consecutive hours on the final push across Antarctica, and what a four-word mantra repeated every morning for 54 days can actually do to a human being.
