#274 Thomas Nobbs - Running 2:09 Solo to Win McKirdy Marathon & Become 4th Fastest Canadian All Time

About This Episode

Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us! On this episode, we had special guest Thomas Nobbs on the podcast! Thomas just came off a huge PR at McKirdy Marathon last weekend, where he ran 2:09 to become the 4th fastest Canadian all-time! Even more impressive- he ran the last 35k completely solo. Thomas actually ran at University of Washington for a bit before finishing up at University of British Columbia. He now resides in Ottawa - meaning he had to train for this race almost entirely on the treadmill! We talked about his training and nutrition on this pod and also walked through his pre-race routines. Of course, we got the full recap of race weekend and also what might be next for Thomas. We hope to see him with a shoe contract and in a major marathon this fall!
