Some hard hitting questions this week out of Sippers HQ

Back in the nations capital still buzzing from last weekends marathon. We answer your questions about sippers plans, endurance lifestyle & marathon training

The marathon is KING. What a race. What a distance. What a place. 

Lets get our 'thon on

Nothing wrong with a Saturday filled with wining & dining. But doing it the day before a long run isnt the wisest option. Nonetheless yesterday we both stuck into a key marathon pace session in the lead up to the Gold Coast marathon. We go over how our preps are shaping up & what the hot goss is in Sippers Land

Butzy sits down to recap the Ironman in Port Macquarie from last month. A long time waiting for this one so thanks for the patience.  

Here's Butzy's pre & post race interview from Ironman Australia 2025. A great insight into what I was thinking pre race & the raw emotion post race. Our full review podcast of the day will be up this week! 

2 BBRC/SS Hall of Famers join Butzy to discuss the Newcastle Marathon last week. 2 very different days but gallant efforts from both of the lads.  Port Mac Preview on Saturday xx Pink lids still available here

The boys are back in town so we took the studio to Power House Canberra (located at the Lyneham hockey centre) to record this poddy. The only man on planet with negative body fat % also jumped behind the mic to give us an insight into his Port Mac preperations. We all share the same excitement for what will be an absolute takeover of Port Mac in 3 weeks. EVERYONE loves our supporter shirts designed by elsol & printed by Capital Prints  Grab your Sunday Sippers Supporter Shirt here Stay tuned for pink racing hat info...

TECH ISSUES NO MORE. Big Johnny boy made the trek up to Newy this weekend to spare the sippers faithful of any more tech issues. Bit on in Sippers land of late. Johnny graduates. Butzy hits a marathon session of doom. Port Mac merch around the corner. 

The great and powerful Gav Godkin joins Johnny to discuss all things triathlon nutrition

Sippers talk back radio?? Apologies from Sippers HQ as we worked through some tech difficulties the past week trying to get this podcast up and running. This WILL BE the last podcast like a talk back radio show. Full quality pods soon. Regardless, the Husky Tri was a cracking day out once again. DNFs, PBs, it was all happening. 

A good old catchup & the ultimate race preview. A dissection of how we'll be attacking those brutal 70.3 miles on Sunday. Our last poddy on Canberra turf, for now...

This week we have two core member of the Bar Beach Run Club (BBRC) joining us, they also happen to be some of our OG Sippers supporters.

BBRC is a run club founded by Jack in Newcastle that has been running for 2 years, every friday they get together to run 5k or 3.8k down at Bar Beach.

We come together to review what was an incredibly special day of Johnny's 100ks for R4R - to be able to put in words how memorable the day was is hard, however we ran through the day to discuss what was going through Johnnys mind from 0-100k, the trials, tribulations and everything in between. We give some insight of the challenges from 43k in and what it felt like being at 70k with 30k to go - massive shout out to everyone involved from R4R, Sippers Faithful and to anyone who donated https://www.gofundme.com/f/100ks-for-running4resilience

Not to worry, the hard stuffs done. Just some fine tuning before the 100k on November 9. Whilst Butzy finally hit a green week & banked 17 hours of good honest rugby league triathlon training.

Lastly, a review of the July challenges, Butzy runs us over what he has learnt over the month and John continues to try explain why he hasn't stuck strong. 

OUI UCKEN OUI BRAHHHH. We come to you live from Paris as the greatest nation on earth continues to collect BAGS OF GOLD. A great start to the 2024 olympics has us fired up and hungry to see more gold medals be wrapped around aussie necks. Catch yas in Brisbane

GREEN WEEKS AND NEW PEAKS - Sippers are on the up. The boys are really starting to settle into their respective preparations. Johnny is 16 weeks out from his undisclosed event and his recent meeting with Gav has him walking around with a hard on. Lake BG was not a happy camper on Saturday but that doesnt stop the lads from giving her a good old fashioned pounding - respectfully of course. We discussed the planning of a mid preperation tear, and how the timing of one pre event is pretty much rocket science. 

This week installment of Sunday Sippers sees us discuss a variety of topics going to Nedd Brockmanns 'Runn" documentary premiere last Tuesday and the whirlwind we went through to getting there. We touch on our training and the transition we are taking into a more serious block of training & what that looks like. July challenge updates are given and there may be some serious questions needing to be asked with some members performance, along with Butzy having to sit down Cox St on a potential breach of his July challenge. A great all round talk today, was a full 80 minute performance with a high completion rate so to speak, enjoy!

The Sippers Faithful have gone absolutely GANG BUSTERS this weekend. Kudos to all those out there on the winter grind - we'll all be diced soon enough. But whilst the faithful have been holding up a serious standard, one of the panel members takes the stand and is offered an early guilty plea. Lets just hope it turns around from here on in!
