With Jimmy targeting Melbourne as his debut marathon Fraser asks the questions to get the why and how behind his marathon ambitions. Fraser also details his own training a week post Sydney as he continues on his own adventure towards Melbourne. Please welcome James and we hope you enjoy listening along.

Tess & Brett resume regular FTK programming in Joel's absence. Instead of the "Big Q" this week, Joel sits down with Willy Songok - Head of Guest Relations at "The Kenyan Experience" (which is run from the High Altitude Training Centre in Iten, Kenya). During his time in Iten, Joel had many interesting interactions with Willy and this lead to Joel asking if he'd be willing to join FTK for an informal chat. You'll hear all about "The Kenyan Experience" as well as Willy's personal story, which when paired with his incredibly dry sense of humour and deep knowledge of running, makes him the perfect leader for the program.

Big episode tonight with Brett and Tess hosting the episode. Joel took a well deserved break from hosting duties to enjoy his trip in Kenya. They take you through their training week recaps before diving into their very different Sydney Marathon experiences - Brett pacing the lead Aussie men, and Tess spectating from the course with her brother. The episode wraps up with the usual favourites - Give Some Kudos and TWSOITWTWATSA. Thanks for all the support as always, listeners. Hope you enjoy this one!

This episode is brought to you by Better Beer:Brett, Joel & Tess record over zoom this week with Joel calling in from "The Home Of Champions" - Iten, Kenya. The episode begins with the team recapping recent race highlights as well as the usual sharing of what they've been up to since they last recorded. As for "Training Weeks", Brett & Tess hold up the segment themselves while Joel substitutes running for travel-related-tales. Due to time zone differences and commitments Joel bails from the episode, leaving Brett & Tess to close out the episode without him.

The team walk through a couple of Logy’s best training weeks and sessions to date, looking at what made them work so well beyond simply training hard, as he looks ahead to the National Cross Country Championships in Ballarat. Matilda shares her taper week leading into the Wonderfalls 25km win, where less running made room for more mindfulness, before recapping race day. Purchase or Discovery of the Week closes out the show, with a surprise guest appearance for those who make it to the end

Hear what a taper means to them, what their thoughts on the course are and whether they’ve studied it and also what they will be focusing on in race week. If you see Caitlin, Tim or Fraser out on course be sure to cheer their names or give them the Joel treatment of just yelling ‘FTK’. Either works.

After her one week hiatus, Tess is back on the airwaves, joining Brett & Joel in the Hawthorn studio. In training week's Brett returns to intensity while Tess continues to build consistency with her new program. Then for the first time in as long as everyone can remember - Joel recaps a race win. He takes the listeners through the successful parts of the Wonderfalls 50, opens up about what went wrong, and everything else that happened during his 4h40min performance . This week's "Big Q" is all about "super sessions" towards the end of a marathon block and as always, the episode closes out with our usual "Give Some Kudos" and "TWHSOITWTWATSA" segments.

Things for your listening bingo card; track 5000m races, police interactions, aborting sessions, bread and lots more.

With a change in recording schedule this week Tess was unable to join Brett & Joel for the episode. Brett & Joel realise quickly that without Tess, anarchy unfolds in the Hawthorn studio. That said, Brett & Joel try their best to take the listeners through each of FTK's segments without diverting the topic of conversation too much. The crew will be back next week to recap Joel's trail run!
