Show Notes
Kia ora What an episode. Hammered it all in less than an hour. We update the listeners on Dwaynes running goals in 2026, will he chose another year of chasing ultras? Will he say that "I will never do another ultra again?" Of course he will. Mal shares her running goals for 2026, or lack thereof. We talk about our local Beach to Basin race in Whangarei, New Zealand and how to train for a 10k race. We talk training workouts like tempos, progression runs, and track sessions. There was a mailbag question about blisters on the heel and Dwayne shares lovely advice around basically returning the shoes. Finally we share Mal's results from her Bone DEXA scan and discuss osteopenia and the ongoing angst she has of reoccurring bone stress injuries. Comment, like us, subscribe to us.

Kia ora Welcome to a funnnn episode of several different voices besides the usual Mal and Dwayne yarning and yarning and yarning away. I don't know if you can tell at this point, but I (Mal) writes the pod description and truly believe nobody even reads this bloody thing. Anyways...
This week Mal and Dwayne share their recent training progress, Mal has an updated lift program which she is very excited about and Dwayne is staring down the barrel of the Taupo 100km in a little over 3 weeks. They also go over the recent results from the local half marathon, as well as Dwayne's experience running as the 1:40 pacer. Lastly the up coming mile series has both Dwayne and Mal very excited.
