97c | "I Did It For Me." — Inside a GMAS Post Race Call w/ Luana Ciccarelli (Part 3 of 3)

Three episodes. One journey. This is the finale.Throughout this call I share my screen and give a real inside look at TrainingPeaks — the app I use to build and manage all of my athletes' training plans. We reference specific workouts and the training calendar directly, which you can only see if you're watching. Audio listeners will still get everything, but if you want the full picture head over to our YouTube channel at youtube.com/@weget2dothis or watch on Spotify. You've heard about run coaching calls before — ⁠⁠way back in Episode 12 we did a fly-on-the-wall style call with athlete David. ⁠⁠Well, we're doing it again, and this time we're taking it even further.This is it. Part 3 of 3. The finale of our series following Oak Endurance athlete Luana Ciccarelli through her full Grandma's Marathon 2026 journey. If you haven't listened to 97a and 97b yet, go back and start there. The series was intended to showcase what run coaching calls with myself (Coach Jacob) and an Oak Endurance Athlete are like! :-) Luana went in with a goal of sub-4:15. Her PR was 4:19:32. She crossed the finish line at 4:13:55. A six minute PR!!! And this is the full breakdown of how it happened.In this episode we go through the entire race, mile by mile. What the morning felt like, how she executed the pacing plan we built in 97b, the mental tricks that got her through the hard miles, what it felt like to cross the finish line, and what the days after a big goal actually feel like when the dust settles. We also talk about what it means to do something truly for yourself, why post-race blues are more real than people admit, and what has made this training block different from every one before it.This one was worth the wait.This call is specific to Luana and her current training cycle. Every coaching call looks a little different depending on the athlete and their goals. Interested in working with me at Oak Endurance?
