Today we are joined by my good friend Dom Bullock who recently just came 2nd place at the Bondi to Manly Ultra! Having run the first 40k's with him (before getting dropped), it was great unpacking/recapping the event and hearing how he went on in the second half to finish strong! He is a very well respect runner in the the Sydney community and it's been an honour to have a chat with him!

Jack Anstey - Professional Runner for Underarmour Dark Sky, Australian representative in the World Indoor Championships 2022 and Illinois State alumni joins us today to talk about his extremely interesting story on the lead up to getting his professional contract, and also starting running at a later age of 16 (unlike other runners who start a lot younger).

We go through many awesome stories throughout his career so far, a bit of info about strength training and also a bit of NCAA jargon. I had an absolute blast chatting with him and I’m sure you guys will thoroughly enjoy it too!

Today we are joined by a trail ultramarathoner and a great friend of mine, Daniel! He is very experienced in the sport of running and has a very community oriented outlook! We touch on very important topics such as not tying too much of your identity to your race results and performance, and that the ultramarathon is a completely different sport. Daniel also recaps his recent UTA 100km experience (his fourth one!), which proved to be a tough challenge this time round. We go quite deep in this episode and I appreciate Daniel so much for sharing some of his wisdom, knowledge and experience.

It was an absolute pleasure to have Drew Fryer and Jimbo Fitzgerald, two very accomplished running coaches to share their expertise and the importance of good communication and people skills to develop a good athlete-coach relationship. We also briefly touch on their vision with their new Eastern Suburbs ProjectIt was an awesome chat, so good that we ended up having a further 40 minute chat off camera afterwards (which probably could have been another episode in itself)! Drew Fryer was named the Sport NSW Young Coach of the Year in 2021 and Jimbo Fitzgerald has coached all disciplines of Athletics to either a national or Olympic level, while also working with many juniors and still having never had a junior athlete with a bone stress injury ever, which shows that he truly believes in longevity and sustainability when training to be a great runner. He has coached the likes of Jenny Blundell and Milly Clark up to the Olympics, so you'll definitely learn a thing or two from this episode!
