Mary McCarthy isn't just a content creator who runs, she's putting down 60-mile weeks and running elite-level times without a professional setup.In this episode, she explains why she runs her easy days genuinely slow, treats the first 30K of a marathon as a warm-up before racing the final 12, and why your Strava heart rate zones are probably lying to you.She talks about fueling like her male training partners because under-eating is a direct route to injury, shares the brilliant story of overtaking her ex-boyfriend in the final 200 meters at Valencia without him even knowing, and addresses the criticism that comes with being a content creator running serious mileage.Her message to the critics: you can't judge someone's training from the outside, the same way you wouldn't judge someone else's relationship.Better Help 👉 Join Spencer in Saying It Louder with 10% off Betterhelp Therapy.

How do you build the engine for a 27:38 10km? Elite runner Alfie Manthorpe joins us to discuss why the secret isn't just in the miles, but in the mental commitment to the process.

He also highlights his three most neglected training tools that often separate the elite from the amateur.It’s a candid look at the discipline, recovery, and mental arrogance needed to transition from a fast runner to an elite competitor.Better Help 👉 Join Spencer in Saying It Louder with 10% off Betterhelp Therapy.
