    48.⁠ ⁠Holly Archer on Why Hyrox Needs FIXING & Future of Content Creator ATHLETES

    Holly Archer — European Silver Medalist and one of the most exciting voices in endurance sport — joins the podcast for an honest conversation about what it really takes to compete at the highest level. Holly opens up about her unlikely origin story: getting a double detention at age 12 for "cheating" in a school cross country race — an accusation lighting a fire that never went out. From a scholarship at an American university to training at altitude with Under Armour, missing Tokyo 2021 by 0.04 of a second, burning out as a pro, and rebuilding from scratch — Holly holds nothing back. She also gets into why Hyrox has a consistency problem, the controversial gel wrapper penalty that cost her a World Championship spot, why she ran a 2:33 marathon with zero long runs in the build-up, and why she believes brands and content creators need to take more responsibility for the running advice they're putting out.

    44. George Rickwood: The UK's Most Unhinged Runner...

    Joined this week by one of the greatest enigmas in the UK running space... Mr George Rickwood. Earlier this year he caught the internet's attention by running an extra kilometre every single day for 66 days (this resulted in back to back 400km weeks...) as part of Gymshark's 66 in 66. An achievement he followed up with a backyard ultra victory in Brighton & a 2:48 marathon time. Generational athlete and all round top bloke.

    42. BPN Last Woman Standing Coach Bryony: Running 155 Miles ONE YEAR ON from Car Accident...

    Bryony Keys AKA Coach Bryony ran for 155 miles at the BPN 'Go One More' last month taking home the crown of LAST FEMALE STANDING! Over 38 hours of running in the Texas heat Bryony got herself into the top 10 finishers one year on from a life changing surgery... In 2024 Bryony was hit by a car and told she'll never run again, but one year on she takes home this crown & becomes an ironman!

    41. What Happened at London Marathon & SUB 2 Hour Marathon Finally Broken... TWICE!

    Joined on monday morning by my fiancé, Issy to debrief on what was a truly historic London Marathon. Really not the day I was expecting or visioned for myself but that is running, part of the journey! Got to get back after it and go again. Congrats to Issy for pulling out a massive 25 minute PB, an incredible day out there. We also saw the first TWO humans go SUB 2 hours in the same race... a truly record breaking Sunday. Well done to everyone that ran & supported. *we said 'women's world record' - we meant 'women's only world record' (apologies) Calum's Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/calumgoddard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Issy's Instagram: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/issysedgwick/?hl=en Watch on YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0nNkuS_WWmK0tRPwbfoXLQ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow on TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@motionalintelligencepod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/motionalintelligencepod
