Ep #018 Aussie Legs carbing up
from The Long Run Hosted by Angus & Elton
This week on The Long Run: Phil Gore is shows he is just built different. Big’s Backyard Ultra comes to an epic close, with Gore taking the win after 114 yards — 475 miles (764km) and nearly five days of running, while Sarah Perry smashes the women’s world record with 95 yards. We unpack the sheer madness of the world’s mentally toughest race format and how it cements Big’s in ultra-running legend. Plus, Strava drops its lawsuit against Garmin, bringing an anticlimactic end to the tech standoff of the season. In Runner’s Science, we cover pre-training fuel — when to eat, what to prioritise, and how carbs drive performance before and during long sessions. And as always, we wrap up with our week of training.
