EP85: Better With Running Podcast - Featuring Anna Ellis - Run2PB Athlete Interview

Zac and Chris recap a big week of sessions and a P.B from Chris. 

They kick off the show hearing about Chris’s big trek from Shepparton to Box Hill in pursuit of a new 3k P.B, with a run through the build up for the race, including a number of shoe changes, as well as some dramas on and off the track! 

Zacca talks us through his Mona Fartlek session, and his strava photo of his idol Steve Moneghetti https://www.strava.com/activities/6882415266 which triggers him about losing his fav running singlet. We hear about how much bang for your buck the Mona Fartlek can give you and how it can feel throughout different stages of the workout. Zacca backs up with a discussion about his 8 x 1k Track Workout on his beloved MUAC athletics track, he continues to build confidence on the track, and actually gets his watch setup properly.  

Chris and Zac discuss over analysing workouts and runs, and how it can be a slippery slope. Chatting about the myriad of factors that go into getting a ‘session’ right and what does that actually mean. 

This week's guest is Run2PB Athlete Anna Ellis, who is coached by Sammy Mclean, Zacca hears about how she got into running, and then how teaming up with Sammy has lead to a number of P.Bs over various distances with a more structured and direct approach. 

Anna is a busy woman, juggling family and work life, and is put on the spot for for some “ hacks” as to how she manages to pull it off. 

We also hear about her love for running shoes and the conversation rounds out with Anna’s goals for 2022.
