For The Kudos - #132

What this episode covers

Jack, Joel, and Tess record episode 132 at Tess’ Brunswick East studio for the first time ever. They kick off the episode by discussing all the latest running news from Marugame, Boston, and Beppu before diving into the listeners' favourite segments. TRAINING WEEKS  Joel’s training week starts with a bang... or rather, a snooze button. After sleeping through his alarm, he’s forced to join the Pulse crew for a Tuesday night session. He then hits the boulevard for a Friday threshold run with Paul, the Balance Runner. Jack shares details of his track session at Sandringham as he prepares for his indoor season, followed by a typical Thursday and Saturday threshold and hill rep session. Tess, still recovering from her marathon, is slowly finding her rhythm but manages to piece together a solid week of training as well. THE BIG Q  Tess shares a conversation from her Ferny Creek long run with the crew: Are 20-week marathon blocks superior to 8-week training blocks? Spoiler alert: The answer likely involves some form of suffering either way. GIVE SOME KUDOS  Joel gives kudos to the ‘blue doctor’ — AKA swimming in the ocean immediately post-long run. Jack gives a shoutout to the scenic Lilydale to Warburton trail, and Tess recommends one of her favorite shoes from last year. TWHSOITWTWATSA Jack kicks off the segment with a questionable Flotrack series on Shelby Houlihan. Tess questions Andy Buchanan’s watch choice for Marugame, and Joel’s choice is something you’ll have to see with your own eyes on FTK’s Instagram story...
