This snippet is for anyone who skipped Mondays episode with NZ cricket all rounder Jimmy Neesham or just hasn't got round to listening yet (maybe you intentionally didn't listen coz you don't like cricket LOL).High performance sport is mentally tough.  And cricket has got to be one of the most mentally taxing sports of them all.  In this very short clip, Jimmy talks about what he knows from experience that he needs to do to make sure he can keep himself mentally fit.  Hosted on Acast.

Jimmy Neesham is a New Zealand cricket legend who started running at the beginning of the pandemic. As you'd expect there is a fair bit of cricket chat in this conversation.  But we cover a tonne of other stuff too.  He's a fascinating guy and I really hope you enjoy it as much as I did.Big love to my sponsors of this episode, Triumph & Disaster.   Hosted on Acast.

This snippet comes from Mondays conversation with Laura Nagel.  She is a track runner who is unbeaten on the track this year and holds the NZ titles for 1500, 3000 and 5000 metres.5 years ago a Doctor (not Dre or Phil- a real life medical doctor) told her a knee injury was a career ender (LOL).This is how she pushed through.  This clip includes a brilliant way to re-frame any sporting injury any of us may suffer.   Hosted on Acast.

You name it, she has done it.Marathons.  Army.  Journalisim.  TV presenting.  Breakfast radio.  Now Dancing on TV!  But there is one reasonably common thing that most of us experience that Brodie is yet to- falling in love.  If you have been too busy to listen to our full conversation from Monday, you can hear Brodie talk openly and vulnerably (but also hilariously) about her lack of a love life in this bite sized episode. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

5 years ago a doctor told Laura she would never run again due to a knee injury.  This year she has finished the NZ track season unbeaten!  She holds the national titles for the 1500m, 3000m and 5000m.  Basically, if she turns up to a park run somewhere in New Zealand, she wll smoke you.We chat about her incredible season, her time in the USA on a running scholership, her partners interest (or lack of) in her running, and the heartbreaking reason she started running when she was 12.    Hosted on Acast.

A few weeks ago I asked on Instagram who you guys wanted to hear on the podcast.  By far the name that came up the most was Brodie Kane.Brodie runs marathons, she makes podcasts, shes worked as a serious journalist, shes presented TV shows, she's been in the amy and now shes going on Dancing with the stars!In this conversation we chat about running (of course), her mums mindblowing sporting achievement, coping with being fired at the start of the pandemic, online bullying, her love life, mental health and much more.  Hosted on Acast.

Last friday, on the eve of his tenth birthday, Wellingtons Spike Hayvice ran a full marathon on a 400 metre track (thats 105 laps).His mum, Fiona, is one of New Zealands best ultra marathon runners so he was in very capable hands to help him achieve his goal.I caught up with Spike straight after school on Monday (3 days after his marathon effort).  Hosted on Acast.

Eight years ago Dave Letele was living in Australia.  Clincally obese, depressed, alone and lonely.  Masking his pain with alcohol and whatever drugs he could get his hands on.Through his hard work and determination, Dave has not only saved his own life but also the lives of thousands of others through his organisation, BBM (Buttabean Motivation).It's an incredible story and I'm so stoked I have the opportunity to share it with you guys.
