    #174 Relisten: Jimmy Whelan - From Pro Cycling to Elite Running & His First Marathon

    Relisten to one of the most popular episodes of The Marathon Podcast: How does an athlete go from professional cycling to elite distance running — in less than a year? In this episode of The Marathon Podcast, Jimmy Whelan joins the show to discuss his remarkable transition from WorldTour-level cycling to professional running. After years racing internationally with EF, Jimmy stepped away from cycling — and within a year ran a sub-30 10K and a 61-minute half marathon, earning his place as a professional runner. We talk about the differences between cycling and running, how aerobic fitness transfers, what surprised him most about running training, and how he’s preparing for his first-ever marathon. This is a fascinating look at elite endurance performance, adaptation, and what’s possible when world-class fitness meets a new discipline. A must-listen for runners, cyclists, and endurance athletes curious about cross-training, aerobic development, and marathon potential. 🎁 Partner Offers Get 20% off a STRAVA annual subscription with code KRISTIAN Save on FlexBeam using this link or code WARWICKRUNS:https://rechargehealthas.sjv.io/55GAPb Start your free Musicbed trial:https://fm.pxf.io/kristianwarwick 🎥 Full episodes + the Boston 2025 documentary:https://www.youtube.com/@Warwickruns 📸 Follow Kristian’s journey on Instagram: @warwick.runs 🎶 Music from Musicbed: MB01XPYH8ZYENVAMB0133EV2TCQFZY 🔗 Watch & Follow
