The biggest buzz at the London Marathon this year wasn’t just the racing, it was around Nomio. It’s a performance shot used by athletes like Cole Hocker and Conner Mantz. Nomio is used before their key sessions and races, whether it’s breaking the American Marathon record or getting WC gold in Tokyo. If you want to check it out yourself, it’s at drinknomio.com and if you’re in Australia or New Zealand, you can find it at Aid Station, and over at The Running Company.

This weekend on the Inside Running Podcast, Moose sits down with American marathon and half marathon record holder Conner Mantz.

Mantz made history at the 2025 Chicago Marathon, running 2:04:43 to become the fastest American marathoner ever. Before turning to the roads, he won back-to-back NCAA Cross Country titles at BYU and represented the United States at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Coached by Ed Eyestone and competing for Nike, Mantz has become the dominant force in American men's marathoning.
