ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Welcome to the podcast. I’m Rob Watson, an ex-pro marathoner with a 2:13:29 personal best (pre-super shoes), 11th place finisher at the 2013 Boston Marathon, and 20th at the World Championships in Moscow that same year. Nowadays, I’m a coach with Mile2Marathon and generally just a big running nerd.
On this show, we dive into all things running, with the occasional detour into cycling and triathlons. It’s a lighthearted, fun take on the sport we love, so sit back, relax, and let’s talk running.

This week Shan and Rob discuss the Victoria Marathon.
It was a tough day as Shan went 3:58, her 2nd fastest time ever, but she shy of her ultimate goal of a sub 3:50.
Shannon absolutely left it all out there and I could not be more proud of the effort she put forth on race day. They aren't a…

We discuss goals, course strategy and cats...lots of cat talk this week!
Shan also reflects on…
This week we recap Shannon's experience at the Chicago Marathon. Things did not exactly go as planned, and she had a really tough day on Sunday. But in true Shanimal style she bounced back and made things right on Monday morning. These Major Marathons may just not be for everyone.

We also recap some recent Triathlon endeavours including a Win at the Vancouver Sprint and a decent hit at Santa Cruz 70.3 Success - I'm starting to like these Triathlons,…

Hello! This week we continue to follow along w/ Ellis Gray on his quest to PB and go sub 2:40 in the marathon. We touch upon how his 2025 has gone thus far and unfortunately we have to address a bit of a bump in the road in the form of a knee injury.
Thanks for tuning in!
After having so much fun chatting w/ Dylan about his path to Grandma's I figured why not do the same thing w/ an M2M athlete, and here we are.
Pt 1 of Ellis Gray vs. the 2:39 marathon. We'll follow along w/ long time M2M athlete Ellis Gray. Ellis is a hardworking, focused and very committ…
