Sometimes it’s easier to learn from your f**k ups than your successes!
This episode of Sole Sisters kicks off with a recap of Alice’s victory at the Cape Paterson Aquathon. Despite some trash talking from her sister on the start line, Alice came away with the win. On the flip side, Elise describes a horrendous 10k time trial which left her feeling defeated and deflated.
We then jump into the main topic of the day – the biggest mistakes we’ve made in training and racing. From Elise collapsing at the end of Berlin Marathon or locking her keys (and race shoes) in the car minutes before a 10k race, to Alice putting herself in a glycogen hole with fasted runs – we share plenty of examples of what not to do so you don’t have to make the same mistakes!
We cap off the episode with big news about Izzi Batt-Doyle’s new Australian record in the half marathon (67:17 in Marugame, Japan), as well as Cam Myers’ first open Australian record in the 3,000m on the indoor track (7:33.12 in Boston, USA) and some other great runs from Aussie runners overseas.
