    Don’t waste your time listening to these absolute losers. Toxic masculinity, uneducated and dangerously sexist. Also super boring content

  • No kudos for sexists!

    Your apology means nothing, clearly if these are the words that came out of your mouth on a podcast you knew was going out to the world, what words are you saying in private? Two stars because the one star reviews get deleted 🩷

  • What’s wrong with running

    The disgusting misogyny broadcast on this podcast was prerecorded, edited then uploaded, so it was no mistake or slip up that it was broadcast. It was fine with them until people called them out. Toxic men in running is why so many women runners doubt themselves needlessly. It’s why it’s an intimidating sport for women to start.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Tess' Lakeside:10 Race Recap - #205
Q: Fatigue during marathon blocks: is it normal and how should athletes cope?
Fatigue is common in heavy blocks; suggestions include iron checks, ensuring adequate fueling after long runs, strategic naps, and balancing training load with recovery to avoid overtaxing the body.
For The Kudos - #196
Q: What is a good indicator workout for what you're likely to be able to run for a marathon?
Coaches suggest there isn't a single perfect session; instead, use a block-based approach with threshold work, long runs, and mindful load progression. A common proxy is to ensure you can hold roughly 4:15 pace in a strong 5K- up to 8K workload and then taper properly; the key is cumulative load and staying healthy, not a single magic workout. If self-coached, seek external input for a personalized plan.
Maurie Plant Meet Recap with Men's 800m Winner Luke Boyes
Q: How does it feel to win in front of such a big crowd, and how does that energy affect your pacing and mental approach?
Luke said the atmosphere is incredible and motivates him to push through the final laps, though it can be overwhelming; he relies on his training and race plan to stay focused when the crowd is intense.
For The Kudos - #180
Q: Does being a podcaster put pressure on you psychologically when it comes to races?
While some feel pressure from podcasting, Brett mentioned he doesn't feel that way but acknowledges that there is pressure when discussing a bad race on air.
For The Kudos - #180
Q: Why do runners get disappointed when they don't run a PB?
Runners often dissect what went wrong when they don't hit personal bests, leading to disappointment, especially for elite athletes who may feel the pressure due to their commitment.
