Water, Not Coffee: Why we’ve ditched caffeine for hydration—and why this might just be our snappiest sit-down yet.
Pre-Flight Panic: Toddler gear, packing faux-pas and the one last load of laundry that almost cost us our podcast (and the plane).
Barcelona Breakdown: Who’s lining up on race day—from our Pro Soul and mixed doubles teams to extended-family marathoners, cyclers and Devil Islands daredevils.
Kid Chaos & Calibrated Laps: Harper’s nocturnal shoe fetish meets our top pacing hacks—lap timing, GPS workarounds and even naming reps after the kids to push through the burn.
Community vs Solo Training: The unexpected power of group sessions—how friendly rivalry, accountability and “cat-and-mouse” camaraderie take your performance to the next level.
Mindset & Nutrition Mastery: Why you should plan your meals the night before, focus on what to add (not subtract), and anchor every session to a “goal beyond the goal.”
