About this listen

In this episode, Nick Bester sits down with Cole Gibbens to unpack an incredible run at the Berlin Marathon going sub 2:30 despite tough conditions.

We dive into how the race unfolded, handling the heat, and what it’s like to experience Berlin compared to London.

We also cover the realities behind the performance: tummy issues, training blocks, mileage for mental health vs. overdoing it, and whether chasing the kind of mileage we’ve seen from the likes of Ran to Japan is worth it.

We chat coaching (and a possible announcement 👀), calorie monitoring, and social media from Insta to YouTube.

Plus, what it’s like stepping into the world as a sponsored adidas athlete, and what’s next in terms of training philosophy: mileage or more quality?

An honest, insightful look behind the grind, the mindset, and the future 🙌🏽
