In this weeks episode:

Gold Coast Marathon Festival: A large WA contingent headed to the east coast to tackle the 2024 Gold Coast Marathon festival – including our very own Matt. We chat with Matt about his race, which unfortunately did not result in a PB, but a respectable 2:38:11 on what seemed to be a tough day for many. A few WA athletes walked away with notable PB’s, including Dean Menzies (65:01) & Charlotte Pickering (1:27:21) in the Half Marathon Distances, as well as a big PB for Jamie Lynch (2:43:41) & a solid run from Karlos Aquino (2:31:59) in the Marathon.
