Courtney walked off a track session at Pizzey this week feeling better than he has after any run in five years — and he's twelve weeks out from another marathon in the shape he ran the last one.


Also in: a voicemail from a sub-3 mate who pulled out at 30k of the Sydney Marathon and felt nothing but relief, Andy Buchanan's $30,000 first-Aussie payday, why Ned Brockman might be a 2032 Olympian (Liam's call: 60% heart, 40% head), the finisher shirt Sydney hands you at registration, and Nike's Pickle Juice shoe.


Bridge to Brisbane next Sunday, a 12k swim run the day before, and the Melbourne half on 11 October — all of it out loud, times and all.
