For The Kudos is a running podcast from Australia. Expect professional athlete training insights, race predictions and recaps, and a star studded guest list - all done with plenty of humility, banter, and piss taking that will keep you riveted and coming back each week for more.
An absolute mammoth episode for you recorded at the Hawthorn studio. Things kick off with a lengthy recap of Joel's experience at Harry's King Of The Hill which saw Piotr Babis claim yet another win just ahead of Pyry Liukkonen in a new course record (and a total elevation world record while he was at it). Joel returns to workouts, Brett lays down a huge week involving double threshold and a hard long run at Warburton Rail Trail while Tess completes two solid workouts and finishes her week with a chill long run in Ocean Grove. At the time of recording with Tess & Brett, Joel didn't know if an interview with his mum would be possible but thankfully he was able to record that 24 hours after the main recording. Mary-Catherine Tobin takes the listeners through her training struggles and detailed race recap which saw her complete her debut marathon in New York over the weekend. Post interview you'll hear Brett, Joel & Tess take you through the remaining FTK segments :)
