On this episode, the boys had on special guest Jimmy Whelan! Jimmy was originally an elite cyclist, making his way up to the World Tour and riding in some of cycling's most iconic races (including the Giro d'Italia!). With pro cycling unfortunately comes a lot of crashes too - and Jimmy had a few bad ones. After his last one, he decided enough was enough and went all in on triathlon instead. He was good at triathlon but didn't enjoy the swimming. So - he decided to go all in on running, and it has paid off in a big way already! After putting in a big 12 week build for Valencia half-marathon, Jimmy ripped a 61 minute half-marathon and announced himself to the pro running world!Jimmy is now looking for a pro contract and is excited to run a marathon potentially next year. It was really interesting to hear about his training leading into Valencia and also his comparisons between pro cycling and pro running.Enjoy!FOLLOW JIMMY:IG: https://www.instagram.com/jimmywhelann/STRAVA: https://www.strava.com/pros/3356275Need a coach?

On this episode, the boys had on special guest Molly Born! Molly just won CIM/US Marathon Championships in her DEBUT marathon! Not only that - she ran an amazing time (2:24) putting her right in the mix of the top American female marathoners already. Molly made a hard move between 30 and 35k, but it almost ended in disaster! Her legs were running out of gas late and she even fell with 100m to go in the race. She was able to finish and hold off a hard-charging Sara Hall to win the race!We also learned a bit about her Puma Elite team based in Durham, NC and also about her time at Oklahoma State under legendary coach Dave Smith.Enjoy!FOLLOW MOLLY:IG: https://www.instagram.com/born_molly/?hl=en

On this episode, the boys had Joey Whelan back on the pod after his epic run at CIM! He did what he said he would do and went for the win, going solo from pretty much the start of the race! He had a gap of over 80 seconds at one point from the chase group.He made it to about 800m to go when he was passed but held on for 2nd place and a huge 3 minute PR, running 2:09! He broke down the entire race for us on this podcast and previewed what's next for him, including maybe a shoe deal?? Enjoy!FOLLOW JOSEPH:IG: https://www.instagram.com/jpwhelan23/?hl=enNeed a coach?
