For The Kudos

TRAINING WEEKS

Brett takes the listeners through his race week training in the lead up to Saturday night's 3000m second place finish in Hobart. We hear about his race tactics and what he would have done differently. Joel takes us through his training week which involved his Pulse 5000m pacing gig. What started out strong dwindled in the back half as he prioritised his favourite sport.

THE BIG Q

"Friend Of The Show" Vincent Tulley has a question around pacing and how to improve on it. Brett & Joel talk through ways runners can become better at pacing in training, which in turn helps for better pacing in races.

Brett has a hilarious submission in "The Moon's Marketing Team" while Joel sends his to his well-deserving girlfriend Chelsea.

TRAINING WEEKS

Kicking off the week Brett takes us through his Tuesday workout prior to his Box Hill Burn 5000m win. While the race recap was on last week's episode, Brett & Joel chatted through his mindset moving forward to this Saturday night's 3000m in Hobart. Joel went to the well in his first Tuesday workout with the PTC crew and fit in a Saturday night threshold as he rushes training before his Pulse 5000m gig (which you've all been waiting on the edge of your seats to hear about).

THE BIG Q

"Friend Of The Show" Scott T writes in with a question on pushing too hard in long runs. Brett & Joel discuss the problems associated with this which leads to a discussion on non-elite runners being influenced to overtrain by social media.

GIVE SOME KUDOS

Brett & Joel send their Kudos to all the people that ran, spectated and volunteered at last night's Pulse 5000m.

After overcommitting with three submissions last week Brett arrives at the segment with the same submission as Joel. Who puts fireworks/firecrackers at the start line of a race?

What a week for The Fall Guys, as Brett emerges victorious under the bright lights of Box Hill - but will it be enough to win the Cam Myers Award? There’s plenty of running news to get through - Gout Gout, Keely, Osaka Marathon, and more. Plus, we find out who blocked Brett on Instagram this week, and we learn the population of Norway.

It’s not quite Hamish and Andy but the next best thing of Fraser and Andy this week as Riley is away sick. There’s Winter Olympics chat, Andy does some sponsor work and training while Fraser gets a second opinion and takes up residence in the sauna. Fraser also shamelessly copies another of his favourite radio segments to finish the show.

An absolute mammoth episode for you all here. Two fantastic races from our OG and 2025 FTK hosts.

TRAINING WEEKS

Brett kicks things off taking the listeners through his week of training from Monday to Sunday last week. Technically his race recap should be in next week's episode but they're always more interesting hot off the press and Brett selflessly doesn't want to take the spotlight away from Joel's pacing recap next week. As for Jack he extends his training week slightly to give some context behind coach Nic's plan to ensure he didn't miss too much training with his race-week flight to Barcelona. Jack gives us a play-by-play of his Australian record run.

THE BIG Q

Thanks to FTK "Friend Of The Show" Nick Watson for posing a question on what choices a runner should make when their performances have stagnated for a couple of years. Brett, Jack & Joel discuss when's the right time to make a coach change, swap race distance goals or even more training location.

GIVE SOME KUDOS

Brett & Jack give Kudos to each other this week (definitely well deserved) while Joel sends his to Maciek (Magic Moments) for his stellar filming skills at the Box Hill Burn 5000m.

Brett has three submissions in his arsenal this week (this will likely result in him arriving empty handed next episode) while Jack isn't sure about the bloke that's been breaking Marathon "records" in Jeans. Joel closes out the episode with a shout out to the TikTok edits of Shrek competing on the track.
