This week on the Podcast I am joined by Canadian Olympian, 2:07:02 guy and 6th place Boston finisher Rory Linkletter to discuss all things running.

We discuss his journey coming up as a youngster and his time at BYU to turning pro and setting his sights on the marathon.

We touch upon he challenges and triumphs that this sport brings, and the learnings along the way.

Rory emphasizes the importance of finding the right training environment, always believing in yourself and the simple principle of good old fashioned hard work.

I really enjoyed this chat and I hope you do to!

Afterwards Shan and I chime in with what we are up to as Shan is rearing up for her first triathlon.

This week Dylan and Rob discuss various aspects of training, recovery, and the mental challenges faced by athletes. They explore the importance of perceived effort versus data metrics in running, the impact of nutrition and recovery strategies, and the joy of running itself.

Dylan shares his journey from a young runner to a professional athlete, discussing the importance of competition, training partners, and the balance between family life and rigorous training. He reflects on his college experience, the transition to professional running, and the mental aspects of training. The discussion emphasizes the value of community in running and the personal growth that comes from setting and achieving goals.

Coming fresh of a very solid performance at the Gorge 50km and just days before a solid 2nd place at Survival of the Fittest, Jeremy joined me for a talk about all things trail running. From his initial love for the sport to committing and going all in, Jeremy wears many hats in the space. From athlete to coach, race director to community builder Jeremy is a rad dude living his best life in a sport he is passionate about.

We also have a training chat w/ Shan where we discuss biking adventures, beer mile shenanigans and more.

Thanks for tuning in.
