Show Notes

Sam and Mitch chat with Brendan Smith, who has run 2:55 at both the Sydney and Gold Coast Marathons this year. Despite only training intentionally for a short period, Brendan has improved rapidly from his 3:33 marathon debut in Sydney last year. He has benefited from the Never Lazy Run Club’s inclusivity and structured training. With a competitive nature and disciplined work ethic, Brendan shows us that a lot can be achieved in just a few months if you put your mind to it.

Mitch is back into solid training after Sydney, stringing together 96 km despite missing a day. Sam runs his first 5k race at Shellharbour post-injury, finishing in 18:36 on a hilly course. A solid rust buster, he secures 4th place after being dropped from the podium in the last 100 meters. Brendan balances travel and work as he gears up for the Melbourne Marathon, with a short turnaround after Sydney.
