About This Episode

lisrunning.com for coaching! On this episode, the boys had on special guest Ellis Cross! Ellis is a professional runner for Hoka and Team Makou based in the UK. His rise to the professional ranks started in 2022 when he made national news after defeating Mo Farah in a road 10k as a club runner, having to pay entry to the race and not even starting with the elite field! Now, Ellis is a proven professional athlete, with a 10k PB of 27:43 and hoping to run 2:09 in his debut marathon in Seville, Spain in just 4 weeks! It was great to get to know Ellis on this episode and learn more about his team. Team Makou posts awesome content on their YouTube and Instagram page featuring the team!
