This week, Sam & Katie chat with James Constantine — a well-known face in the running scene as the Digital Marketing Manager for Pont3, the team behind Sydney Marathon’s push for World Major status. James shares insights into the campaign, his personal running journey, and how he’s now balancing training with family life. With standout PBs including 16:06 for 5K (solo lockdown TT) and 2:52 for the marathon, James is setting his sights on Ballarat Marathon 2026 with a new PB in mind.
James also takes us back to a memorable training week from two years ago, packed with solid sessions alongside his run crew.
Training Recap • Katie clocks 24km while juggling a house move and maintaining cross-training consistency on the bike. • Sam hits his biggest week in a while with 108km, including a 17:55 5K TT and a "not-quite-hilly" tempo run dodging a bit of traffic.
