5-MINUTE FRIDAY: G'day, Sydney
About this episode
Emily Abbate shares her experiences and insights ahead of her 16th marathon while addressing listener questions about finding a credible run coach.
Live from Sydney, Australia, Emily checks in ahead of running her 16th marathon. She reflects on navigating the 24-hour travel journey, dealing with an accidental five-hour jet-lag nap, and why experience doesn't eliminate race-week nerves—it just gives you the tools to respond instead of react when plans go sideways. Then, she dives into a listener question about how to find and vet a credible run coach, breaking down key certifications to look for and why finding someone who understands your "why" matters just as much as credentials.
