At the end of last year, Jeff stepped into the role as Head of Sports Marketing at Suunto, after years of being a great athlete himself. We chat about his achievements as a bike racer, marathoner, and ultra runner, how this has shaped him, how he got to where he is, and how he is now working to get Suunto to new heights. Suunto is 90 years old this year, and has a history of making quality products. With signings like Clayton Young, Zouhair Talbi, Emma Grace Hurley, and Charles Hicks, Suunto is really making a move into the world of road running. So what makes the watches and products of Suunto stand out? And what model is the right one for you?Cover photo: Asa FletcherFull video + the Boston 2025 documentary:    / @warwickruns  Follow Kristian's journey on Instagram: @warwick.runs

On this episode we have Francesco Ranchi on, and here's what he posted on reddit a few days ago: Started running 8 months ago when I was 130kg (but back then I wasn’t running I could only walk ), now I dropped to 87kg with pure hard work and training and 2 days ago I managed to run my first marathon here in Trieste!I only ran 21km during training as time was really tight for me. The first half was as predicted reaching the half marathon in 2 hours and 15 minutes, I then stopped at an aid station where there was a good looking lady and drank too much and ate too many bananas and apples while having a chat with her…never regretted having talked to a girl this much… threw up after 1km, got to the next aid station really dehydrated and from then on everything I would eat/drink I would throw up. Ran the last 21km in 4 hours with terrible cramps, headaches. Walked for 10km but somehow I got a second wind and was able to run at 8min/km for the remaining 12km. Threw up about 6 times in the last 21km, including the exact moment where I crossed the finish line at 6 hours 30 seconds (officially arrived last out of 600), and I even got live in the local news while throwing up my soul crossing the finish line , but coming where I came from physically and mentally, I’m proud I pushed trough and did what once I was convinced to be impossible.Full video + the Boston 2025 documentary:    / @warwickruns  Follow Kristian's journey on Instagram: @warwick.runs

His podcast, The Mindful Minute, has over 1 million plays and 14k followers on Spotify. The most popular episodes are both 'Mindful Running' episodes. Most people, including myself, mostly focus on times when running and racing, but I think the most enjoyable are when we focus on being present. Some people do this naturally, but others need support with anchoring themselves into the present as they move. This can be through breathing patterns, body scanning, and sense activation (focus on what you can hear, see, smell, taste, etc). "Time stamps:00:00:00 – Celebrating One Year and Introducing Conor Stone: Mindfulness for Runners00:04:14 – From Hurling Injuries to Finding Mindfulness and Running00:07:12 – The Balance Between Using Running to Cope and Healthy Engagement00:10:45 – Conor Defines Mindfulness and How He Was Introduced to It00:13:56 – Managing Anxiety: Physical Reactions and Running as a Tool00:20:23 – Conor's Podcast: Accessible Mindfulness Exercises for Movement00:26:27 – Using Body Scanning to Identify Injuries and Prepare for Races00:33:34 – Practical Tools for Managing Pre-Race Nerves and In-Race Thoughts00:41:24 – Mindfulness as a Tool to Manage Anxiety, Not Eliminate It00:49:09 – Worry Time and Mental Health Audit for Training Block Stress01:00:44 – Why Adjusting Race Goals Reduces Stress and Improves Experience01:11:35 – How Movement-Based Mindfulness Helps Restless Individuals and Athletes01:27:05 – From 3:29 to Sub-3 Ambitions: The Drive to Keep Improving01:35:25 – How to Integrate Mindfulness into Your Daily Life for Lasting Impact01:39:32 – Kristian's Training Update, Goal Adjustments, and Humorous ReflectionsStart your free Musicbed trial:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://fm.pxf.io/kristianwarwick⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🎥 Full episodes + the Boston 2025 documentary:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Warwickruns⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📸 Follow my training journey on Instagram: @warwick.runs🎶 Music from Musicbed: MB01XPYH8ZYENVAMB0133EV2TCQFZY
