  • Great listen!

    I like how it’s based on true research studies and not just “I’ve run for a while and my opinion matters”.

    Does a good job turning complex, PhD level research into digestible learnings for me as a runner. Excited to keep hearing more!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ryan Banta - How to Lead a High School Track Program
Q: What is the role of data in shaping how you train an athlete?
Data informs what events to develop first and where to push progress; the training details—recovery, pacing, and progression—are then adjusted to match the athlete's data-derived needs, not just abstract goals.
Pete Julian: Coaching The World's Best
Q: How important is threshold work in year-round training?
Threshold work is valuable but should be distributed throughout the year in small doses, with attention to the athlete's responses and the event demands, so it doesn't become toxic.
Pete Julian: Coaching The World's Best
Q: How do you approach event-specific training for 5K vs 10K vs marathon?
I tailor the approach by event group, emphasizing fast finish capability for 5K, and using a lot of aerobic and threshold work for longer events, while always integrating enough intensity to close races effectively.
Pete Julian: Coaching The World's Best
Q: What pillars define your training philosophy?
I don't have rigid pillars; it's more about the basics—strength, volume, and above all, keeping the athlete happy and healthy, with a strong emphasis on communication and trust so they take ownership of their training.
Hannah Irwin - Northern Ireland Record Holder
Q: So can you tell me the difference between Great Britain, the UK, England?
Hannah explains the nesting of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales within the UK and GB, with Great Britain being the larger landmass that contains England, Scotland, and Wales, while Northern Ireland is part of the UK but not on Great Britain.
