Ep 44 - Interview with Aidan Hobbs

Description

Aidan Hobbs is a very capable and versatile runner that has been on the rise for a couple of years now. Running 15 of the last 28 consecutive City2Surf's dressed as Superman is maybe where the extra strength lies. Since running 44:36 and finishing 9th at the 2019 City2Surf, Aidan has gone on to run a personal best on the track from the 800mtrs to the 10000mtrs including the 3000mtr steeplechase and on the road from the 10k to the Marathon where he recently ran a superb 2:20 on the Gold Coast improving on the 2:23 ran there in 2019. Aidan decided, maybe lured by the prize purse and offerings, to back up and defend his title in the gruelling 30k Brisbane Trail Ultra the following weekend. Aidan was on track, pun intended, in defending his title before encountering a few traffic and direction issues that bled enough time to cost him the race where he finished in second place. At the age of 35, Aidan is in the middle of a BIG purple patch that is probably better referred to as an "acreage" than a patch. Aidan, with the support of his wife Peta, will proceed to juggle the responsibilities of full time work and three young children to continue his upwards trajectory on the performance graph that will allow him to better his personal bests over the distances. With his commitment to hard work, professionalism and being surrounded by a great team, all is possible! Best of luck Aidan.   Greatly appreciate your support for the podcast on Patreon -www.patreon.com/therunningguypodcast   The Running Guy Podcast Singlet -www.therunningguypodcastsinglet   The Running Guy Coaching Website - therunningguy.com.au   Instagram - Instagram.com/therunningguypodcast   Facebook - therunningguypodcast   Join The Running Guy Podcast Strava Club -  therunningguypodcast   YouTube Channel youtube.com/channel/UCAvM0q11KzHkLBoL0LX_9lw   Opening music - Artist: Soundroll Song: Lost in Love Closing music -  Artist: Dan Henig Song: Wood   DanHenig.com   Hey guy's if you are enjoying listening to the show and would like to make a small donation of support then follow this PayPal link https://paypal.me/astonduncan?locale.x=en_AU
