<p>In this weeks episode, we meet Aidan Rowe who is coached by Brady Threlfall. Aidan Rowe’s transformation into a distance runner is a remarkable narrative of resilience and rapid growth. Having spent much of his athletic life in footy boots, he decided in February to pivot toward structured running. This transition was particularly challenging because he was coming back from a significant injury—a broken pelvis—that had left him struggling to complete even 2km at the start of his journey. Under the expert guidance of coach Brady Threlfall, Aidan transformed these humble beginnings into a dedicated training regimen. </p><p>Despite the demands of a high-pressure career as a boilermaker, where he regularly works 10 to 12-hour shifts, Aidan remained steadfast in his commitment to his training plan. He learned to master the art of balancing an intense physical job with the rigor of marathon preparation, showing that consistency is often more important than perfection. </p><p>The culmination of his hard work arrived at the Gold Coast Marathon, where he successfully completed his debut at the distance in 4:03:11. Throughout the race, Aidan learned the classic, humbling lesson that "the marathon starts at 30km," experiencing firsthand the physical and mental toll that only the final stages of a race can extract. Despite the difficulty of those final kilometers, he described the event as an incredible experience, bolstered by the electric atmosphere and the satisfaction of seeing months of focused work pay off. </p><p>Looking ahead, Aidan is not slowing down; he has already set his sights on new goals, including the City to Surf and the Noosa Triathlon. When asked what advice he would give his 18-year-old self, his response captures the essence of his journey: "Have a crack". </p><p>This episode is brought to you in partnership with Oat Running Socks; Aidan is rewarded for jumping on the show with a pair, and listeners can score some using the run2pb discount code "Run2pb15" for 15% off the range by visiting www.oatrunning.com.au.</p><p><br></p>

<p>In episode 304 of the Better With Running podcast, hosts Chris and Zac open the show by discussing their recent weekly mileage and training adjustments. </p><p>The core of the episode features a guest appearance by runner Anthony Ricupero and his coach, Forest Robinson, who join the hosts to discuss Anthony's path to breaking the three-hour marathon barrier. Anthony shares his personal evolution from playing Australian Rules football to becoming a dedicated distance runner, ultimately culminating in a 2:58:34 finish at the Gold Coast Marathon. He reflects on the specific mental and physical hurdles he had to overcome throughout his training block to achieve this time. </p><p>Coach Forest Robinson provides professional insight into the strategy behind Anthony's success, highlighting the necessity of maintaining consistency while adjusting plans to fit the athlete's specific needs. A significant portion of this discussion covers the practical difficulties of balancing high-mileage training with a demanding career in the construction industry. Forest emphasizes that there is great reward in helping others reach their goals, a sentiment that anchors his coaching philosophy. </p><p>To wrap up the episode, the group shifts to more casual topics, including a debate surrounding the controversial new Nike training gear known as "moth cloth" for its intentional holes. The conversation concludes with a quick-fire question segment, covering topics ranging from favorite local dessert spots to the strangest things the runners have witnessed while out on the road. </p><p><br></p><p>Finally, this episode is brought to you in partnership with Oat Running Socks; Anthony is rewarded for jumping on the show with a pair, and listeners can score some using the run2pb discount code "Run2pb15" for 15% off the range by visiting <a href="www.oatrunning.com.au." target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">www.oatrunning.com.au.</a></p>
