About this episode
In this episode of the Sweat Elite Podcast's 'Training Talk,' the focus shifts from training to race-day experiences at the Osaka Marathon. Luke shares his exhilarating account of achieving a personal best time of 2:24:51, along with the challenges he faced leading up to and during race day. Matt, on the other hand, discusses his struggle with asthma and sleep deprivation, which unfortunately led to him dropping out at around the 22.8 km mark. Despite the setback, they both maintain a positive outlook on future races and training adaptations. The episode also touches on their experiences with race fueling, the importance of rest in a training regimen, and highlights from the elite field in the race.
