    Alex Cleary - Better By Next Week

    On this week’s Better By Next Week podcast 🎙️ Tim and Ollie sit down with Alex Cleary for a conversation that goes deep, fast. From chaotic younger years to building a life with intention, Alex shares how he flipped the script without losing himself along the way. We unpack identity shifts, accountability, and the uncomfortable middle ground where you’re no longer who you were… but not yet who you’re becoming 🤯 Alex takes us inside some of his wildest chapters, including attempting to run from Sydney to Melbourne, stopping due to serious health risks, and the lessons that still shape him today. We then head to Antarctica ❄️ where Alex trained for a marathon while working underground in African mines, breaking down how extreme environments sharpen his mindset, fuel his competitive edge, and feed his well known love for “taking souls” when racing. We also dive into Ultraman, addiction, grief, content creation, and building King of the Hill into one of the most electric events in the country 🔥 This episode is raw, reflective, funny, and deeply human. If you’re navigating change, chasing growth, or questioning what’s next, this one will stick with you.

    Better By Next Year

    On this week’s Better By Next Week podcast, Tim and Ollie close out the year with our final episode, Better By Next Year 🎉. This one is part celebration, part reflection, and part looking forward. We spin the wheel 🎡 to give away all our All New Review prizes, revisit some of the biggest moments from the year, and talk honestly about what we learned along the way and what we’d change if we were doing it all again. We dive back into the gear that genuinely worked for us throughout the year 👟⌚, the reviews that surprised us most, and the lessons learned from testing products in real-world conditions, not perfect ones. Instead of talking New Year’s resolutions, we focus on changing habits and building routines that actually lead to long-term lifestyle change. Small, repeatable actions that stack up over time and help you keep showing up when motivation fades. We also break down our favourite events of the year, share insights from the BBNW Challenge, and reflect on what we learned not just as runners, but as people. A big, meaningful way to finish the year and set the tone for what’s next 🚀

Ollie takes out the event with an epic 80km performance, while Tim battles his way to 70km, proving grit sometimes matters more than good decisions. They break down what it actually took to win, the mindset shifts required as the laps drag on, and practical tips for anyone thinking about taking on a last-man-standing style event. The boys dive deep into the course, race-day strategy, fuelling, pacing, and the moments where things nearly fell apart. Fresh off the chaos, they also tackle this week’s listener questions with raw honesty and plenty of laughs. There’s big energy in this one as Tim finally passes what Ollie calls the fire torch to the next generation. Strap in—this is a performance for the ages.

    Ben Burgess - Better By Next Week

    On this week’s Better By Next Week episode, Ollie and Tim host Ben Burgess in the Greenhouse, fresh off an incredible run at the World Ultra Trail Running Championships where he finished as the number one Aussie in a stacked global field. We dive into what it felt like to stand on the world stage, how he processed the experience, and why his running has skyrocketed over the past few years. Ben opens up about being self-coached, staying humble, learning constantly, and handling the days when everything falls apart. We explore the pivotal moments behind his record run at Kunanyi, the gear he refuses to race without, and why supporting smaller community events matters to him. We also dig into Ben’s zest for adventure, his love for nature, the freedom of a nomadic lifestyle, and how staying relaxed (sometimes unbelievably relaxed) helps him race with joy instead of pressure. He shares how he manages expectations, finds energy, navigates hard moments, and uses running as a tool for growth and perspective. Plus, we hit listener questions including training for West Macs, race-day nutrition, favourite shoes, post-race snacks, and whether events like DU135 or backyard ultras are on his radar. A big, insightful, uplifting chat with one of Australia’s most exciting ultra talents.

We unpack the chaos of crewing, including what actually helps your runner, what absolutely doesn’t, and why Ollie thinks Tim is passing him a fire torch. There are honest insights, questionable decisions, and plenty of stories that’ll make you laugh and maybe rethink your own race-day routine. We bring back our favourite listener segments: your Listener Questions, plus our mysterious, iconic, still-yet-to-be-named Quote of the Week.And because our listeners are absolute legends, we’re running a special giveaway episode to say thank you.
