EPISODE 20 |FEATURING LEE BOBBIN: THE COACH OF CAMERON MYERS

We have a pretty cool episode this week with Coach, Lee Bobbin.  Lee is the coach of Cameron Myers, who just a few weeks ago broke Ryan Gregson’s U18 Australian 1500m record, clocking 3:40.60.  This time brought Myers to just 0.68 of a second away from becoming the fastest 16-year-old in the history of 1500m running. 

Myers is lining up in Melbourne in a few weeks to have a crack at becoming one of the youngest in history to break the Sub 4 mile.  We hope you enjoy this chat with Lee Bobbin.

EPISODE 18: A NEW CHAPTER | CRAIG HUFFER

Craig Huffer is one hell of an interesting guy to chat to regarding middle-distance running. A huge junior talent, Huffer posted 3:36 over 1500m as a 20-year-old.  

His career then took him to America where he spent some time at Adams State, before leaving college and joining The Very Nice Track Club with the famous coach, Ron Warhurst.

Training alongside huge names such as Nick Willis, Huffer gained a wealth of knowledge that has now allowed him to set up his own coaching group in Melbourne.

EPISODE 16: BREAKTHTHROUGH YEAR | CALLUM DAVIES

At the recent Australian Championships, a quietly spoken Queenslander by the name of Callum Davies had a bit of a breakthrough run in the men's 1500m final.  Sitting on the heels of Olli Hoare and  Matthew Ramsden with a lap to run, Callum managed to hang on for the bronze.   A sign of things to come perhaps.  But for those watching the sport over the past 5 or so years, Callum has been a talent on the rise, to that, there is no doubt.  We caught up with Callum in what is his first real piece of published media. We hope you enjoy it.  Also, if you do enjoy this podcast, would we love it if you can leave us a 5-star review .....
