Manage episode 489513054 series 2664884
The latest "Better with Running" podcast featured an insightful interview with John-Paul Caligiuri, a dedicated runner who recently achieved a personal best of 16:05 in the Albert Park 5km. John-Paul shared details about his extensive running journey, which spans approximately 15 years of consistent effort. During this time, he's amassed an impressive list of PBs, including a 2:28 marathon in Chicago, 72mins for the half and 33mins over the 10k.
The interview talks about how he came involved with run2pb and getting coached by Brady Threlfall, He offers insights into his favorite training sessions and how they have worked together to achieve goals.
The interview also delvs into John-Paul's personal life, touching upon how he balances demanding work in civil construction—running a family business with long hours and frequent travel—with his rigorous training schedule and family life, raising three teenage children. He manages this by primarily running early mornings and the odd double!
A quickfire round revealed more about his preferences and insights, covering topics like gear (Garmin or Coros), tech (iPhone or Android), shoe rotation for different types of runs, and the pleasant surprises he's found in running. He also shared life advice, a song for his life's soundtrack, and we hear about his music background, favorite athletes, and even the one food he could eat daily.
JP will be hooked up with some new Oat Running Socks for joining the show, as a thank you for sharing their story.
