Courtney ran 1:16:37 in the Nike Melbourne Marathon half, with a negative split and second in his age group, and insists nobody cares about the second bit. Both of us met Eliud Kipchoge: Courtney got his structure question answered on the finish line at the MCG, and Liam's phone tried to answer for him mid-Q&A.

Plus Melbourne vs Gold Coast as a city marathon, Kipchoge's start-line mindset, the Alphafly 3 vs 4 one-shoe-each test, Izzi Batt-Doyle's national record, Kona, and this week's Local Legend, Declan Magill, who ran 2:41 pushing his daughter Hazel.
