Olivia Tsim (@ojt_runs) has progressed rapidly since 2017, from a sprinting background struggling to run more than a couple laps of the track to now competing for Wales over middle and long distance, with 2022 the year she ran 73:38 at Copenhagen half marathon.

It's a real insight to hear Olivia talk through the component parts of her progress including;

• Nutrition
• Gymwork - my new favourite topic
• Using Covid lockdowns to full effect
• Recovery from hard sessions by cross training
• Supershoes

During the recording we discuss the Armagh 3k, which Olivia raced just a few days afterwards. She finished in an impressive 9:34 and 28th position in a field of 152 athletes packed with quality.

Jordan Syatt (@syattfitness) is one of the most vocal and to the point fitness content producers on instagram. There's a reason he's approaching one million followers on that platform. His content is absolute gold.

It was a real honour to have him join me to reignite this series, in it we discussed;

• Obsessive training
• Action-based rather than objective-based goals
• Why consistency matters
• The affects of alcohol and sleep
• James Smith
• Jiu-Jitsu
• The importance of strength and conditioning
• Protein and macronutrients in general

Lizzie Dimond, otherwise known as @runnerof4, is a fantastic runner with amazing PBs, including 2:49 at Manchester marathon in April 2022.

We talked about;

• fitting training in and around having four children,
• how getting out for some exercise makes us better people and parents;
• the feeling gained from getting out for a run,
• whether a run is even worth doing without AirPods in your ears,
• making friends mid-marathon,
• goals for London marathon in October 2022,
• having a big following on Instagram and using it to only focus on the positives.

I really enjoyed chatting to Lizzie, I'm sure you'll enjoy listening to her talk about a huge passion of hers. You can also check out her running performances on the Power of 10.
