Run Culture Podcast

Today, I spoke with Jaemin Frazer who is; a runner, a TEDx Speaker, author of two books (‘Unhindered: The 7 essential practices for overcoming insecurity’ and ‘Elegantly simple solutions to complex people problems’), Insecurity expert & coach, as well as being the host of; ‘The Insecurity Project Podcast’. Jaemin founded the Insecurity Project so people the world over could live a life unhindered by fear, doubt and anxiety. I was so rapt to get Jaemin on the show, as I feel these self-limiting beliefs are often unacknowledged by many of the runners/patients I treat and swept under the carpet. Rather than masking, medicating, or managing your insecurities, Jaemin uses a proven framework to allow you to show up at your best where it matters most, unhindered by self-doubt, fear, and limiting beliefs. As Jaemin says; ‘To be unhindered by insecurity is to become fully human, free to be alive, living unconstrained. It is to show up as the best version of yourself in the real world, totally present and unguarded with nothing to prove and defend. It is to create a life where an escape is not needed. It is to operate with power and grace in the world. It is to live your life the way you know you are capable of and, by doing so, to leave your mark on the planet.’ Is your running or life being held back by insecurities?

On Tuesday night this week, David McNeill ran an incredible 13:12.8 for 5000m in Perth to became the 3rd Australian male to run the 5000m 2021 Tokyo Olympic Qualifier. It was his first 5000m PB in 9yrs! Dave now has a nervous wait until the July cut off date to see if he is one of the three Australian men selected for the 5000m. If selected it would be his third Olympics and really cap off a memorable running career! In this chat Dave details Tuesday’s race, he shares that he is jetting off to Europe tonight; to run in a Diamond league race in 2 weeks time. He also shares the ups and downs of his career and some of his key learnings. Dave continues to inspire ‘on the track’ with his incredible performances and longevity... and ‘off the track’ as a physio/writer/coach/wise soul and just all round ‘nice guy’. All the best Dave!

Today, I was very fortunate to chat to Vanessa Alford. I found Vanessa Alford’s book ‘Fit not healthy’ in the Frankston library about 1 month ago and was intrigued by the title. So, I borrowed the book and read her story. It’s such an important story for any goal orientated, super focused, passionate runner to hear. In the book, Vanessa bravely details her journey with exercise addiction and disordered eating. Vanessa is a former elite marathoner, an experienced physiotherapist, a pilates instructor, public speaker, has a background in nutrition, has extensive experience working in the health and wellness industry, and is the mother of three kids. Today, Vanessa talks about the difference between harmonious and obsessive passion, she shares what she thinks lead to her exercise addiction, she talks about how running became her everything, how selfish she became, she speaks of the denial, been controlled by that ‘little voice’ in her head, the turning point and advice to other runners based on her own experiences. Please, share this podcast to whoever you feel will benefit, it’s a powerful chat! If you want to reach out to Vanessa Alford for advice/help or to purchase her book she kindly stated her email in the podcast; ness130@hotmail.com Thanks once again @alfordvanessa for sharing your story today!

On Anzac day at 7am at the Penrith Olympic rowing regatta, Athletics Australia put on a marathon to give athletes the opportunity to run fast. As many of you know, I've been targeting this race over the past 11 weeks and was fortunate enough to have one of the athlete's I coach; Pete Dutton as a pace maker till 17kms. Today, Pete and I catch up to chat about the event itself, how amazing it was to witness a couple of World Records get broken by @Jarryd Clifford and @Michael Roeger or to watch @Caiden Shields and @David Ridley's incredible performances. We also reflect on our own performances, where to from here, give an update on how the rest of the Run Culture Owl squad is going and discuss how we both believe running can be just so much more fulfilling when you regard it as a 'team sport'!

Deon Kenzie (@deon_kenzie) competes in the T38 category for the 1500m. A category for those with minor co-ordination impairment. Deon explains the T38 category well in the podcast.  Born with cerebral palsy, Deon wields exceptional determination, optimism, a love of self improvement, good health and running! As you will hear Deon's optimism is infectious. When I first met Deon on a running high altitude training camp in 2015 he had just run 4:07 for the 1500, fast forward to 2021 and he recently became the first Australian with Cerebral Palsy to break the 4 minute barrier!  He has since achieved this feat 3 times! (Running 3:55 at the end of March). Outside of running Deon has a passion for personal growth, good food, is a PT, health advocate, helps run tours at the AIS and a buddying entrepreneur. Deon has some great advice for all runners to hear! He is sure one to watch for Tokyo, Let’s all get behind him!

It almost wouldn’t be a race without a good live stream nowadays. 🎥 If you’re a keen Victorian or even an Aussie track runner, then it is highly likely that you have tuned in to an @athleticsexclusive livestream or two. This weeks guest, Lachlan Rayner (@lachlanrayner), is the man behind this fantastic service. On the podcast he gives us an honest and fascinating insight into how the livestream came to be, its operation, its team, and so much more!! Be it the small things you don’t even think about like start lists or lap counters on the screen, it is clear that Lachlan is passionate about delivering a polished product that serves and promotes the sport! Lachie also discusses his responsibilities as a boundary umpire for the AFL (@umpireafl) and his role in Communications and Marketing at @littleathsvic. It’s clear that he is very well versed in all things sport, and we are very fortunate to have him doing the great work he is doing on the media side of things at Athletics Exclusive.

Patience is a skill that the even the best of us at times struggle to practice. So easy is it to become frustrated when those goals that you set, or want to set, are just far enough out of reach - at least for now. It is important at these times that we remain level-headed and remember to look at the bigger picture. Australian 50km Record Holder, Dion (@dion_finocchiaro), joins Dane on the latest podcast to discuss how as runners we can write our own “yellow pages” of training - the kind of training that doesn’t tear as easily as a flimsy magazine. Dion likens such training to a well-baked cake - not too runny, not over done, but instead even throughout. It is an insightful and informed conversation on how we can stay grounded in our training, recover from injury, and potentially how such an approach can keep us injury free.

For the love of running… A bittersweet, tough kind of love that I’m sure many could relate to in Kate Spencer’s (@kate_spencerrrr) inspiring story. From altitude trips in Flagstaff, to peak 5,000m form, team selections and then finally into that dreaded injury cycle - Kate is a runner in the truest sense of the word. On the podcast she discusses how some time off might have been her saving grace, the coach-athlete dynamic she has with Ben Liddy (@blidds37) and her relationship with running now. It was so refreshing to hear the mature perspective Kate now wields!!! Kate now has such a balanced, fun and sustainable long term approach to her running! I’m sure many chronically injured runners will learn a lot from this one! Thankyou so much Kate for sharing your story, it will inspire and help many!

#101 RILEY COCKS (@rileycocks_). Elite runner hailing from South Australia, coach @runasonecoaching, partner to previous guest and Zatopek runner-up Izzi Batt-Doyle (@izzibattdoyle), physiotherapist and younger brother to Jacob (@jcocksy) - This is Riley. Needless to say he’s a busy man, though you’d be hard-pressed to chat to someone as chilled as he is. In this pod we take a deep-dive into the life that he balances and what he’s learned along the way. He shares stories from his time training under the guidance of Adam Didyk(@teamtempo), the kind words he received while training with Bowerman Track Club (@bowermantc) a few years ago and what his life looks like now. Additionally, from the perspective of two physios we explore some common myths and mistakes that many runners make - some of which Riley is on the better side of now. Most excitingly, Riley shares his ambition for the marathon! And if recent form is any indication, Riley is in the process of laying a great foundation for this upcoming campaign. To learn more about his coaching platform, be sure to check them out @runasonecoaching.
