Sam has a chat with Zac O'neil 2 months after his ripper top 10 performance at C2K (240km from the Coast of Eden to the top of Kosciuszko).
Zac tells us how he got into running, and talks about his travels across the Middle East and Europe last year which featured 2nd place in the Wadi Rum Full Moon Marathon (informally known as Tatooine Marathon) and the Val d Aran 110k in the Pyrenees as a qualification event for C2K. He also opens up about his training prior to C2K and the race experience itself with quite insightful chat about recovery and nutrition practices.
Zac and Sam then have a chat about Marathon training as Zac switches gears and is looking to run a significant PB at Shellharbour Marathon on April 15th.
