In this episode, Jacob sits down with his coach, Matt Welch, to officially kick off his Mesa Marathon build. It’s a raw and real look inside what it’s like when the coach gets coached—how Jacob takes feedback, navigates high mileage, and balances being both a coach and an athlete.They break down the next 12 weeks of training leading into Mesa in February: the mindset behind stacking 60+ mile weeks, the importance of letting easy runs stay truly easy, and how to train while a little tired without burning out. Jacob and Matt dive into the details—downhill prep for quad durability, winter training in Minnesota, post-run sauna sessions, and fueling strategies designed to make the final 10K the strongest 10K.For anyone curious what it looks like when a coach becomes the athlete—or what it really takes to prepare for a breakthrough marathon—this episode gives an inside look.Matt Welch InstagramTAG InstagramMatt Welch StravaTAG WebsiteFollow us on Instagram:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@weget2dothispod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email us questions/comments at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out the video portion of our show at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@weget2dothis⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For business information hit up the links below:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dr. Kailee Acupuncture Website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Oak Endurance Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LASTLY -> If you enjoyed the show, please like, comment, subscribe and consider giving us a 5-star review wherever you listen or watch :-)We Get 2 Do This!
