Dathan won bronze at the World Half Marathon Championships and finished as the top American at the Chicago and New York City Marathons, but now he’s responsible for a stable of athletes who mostly train in Boulder, Colorado - like Hellen Obiri, Yared Nuguse and Geordie Beamish.

Round-Up | Almgren's stunning New York finish to win on marathon debut and tributes to Ciara Mageean
Hannah and Rich round-up the best of the racing from the New York City Marathon, where Andreas Almgren lived up the hype by winning on his debut over the distance by producing one of the quickest ever finishes. There's reaction to Sheila Chepkurui's win, with Jess McClain's second place putting an American on the podium for the first time in eight years, and Marcel Hug being given a big test by Daniel Romanchuk. But we start the podcast by paying tribute to 2024 European 1500m champion Ciara Mageean, who has died at the age of 34 following a battle with cancer.

Round-Up | Almgren prepares for New York Marathon, Jepchirchir suspended and male pacers for women’s London Marathon?
Hannah and Rich preview the New York City Marathon, where Andreas Almgren will make a much anticipated debut over the distance - taking on reigning champion Benson Kipruto. We also ask whether Patrick Dever could get on the podium, and if anyone can beat Hellen Obiri in the women’s race. There’s a discussion on Peres Jepchirchir’s provisional suspension after testing positive for EPO, whether male pacemakers could be involved in helping to set a new women’s world record at the London Marathon, and check-in with RunX - the World Treadmill Championships - which is underway.

Claudio Berardelli | Coach of Sabastian Sawe and Emmanuel Wanyonyi on world records, future targets and life in Kenya
Courtesy of our sponsors Maurten, Italian coach Claudio Berardelli joins us for remarkably open and honest extended interview. The coach behind the success of marathon world record holder Sabastian Sawe - the first man under 2 hours in race conditions - and 800m Olympic and world champion Emmanuel Wanyonyi, covers a huge range of topics. In the first half, we discuss Claudio’s unconventional journey to become a running coach (having previously raced as a cyclist and studied sports science), the highs and lows of living and coaching in Kenya - including the doping culture that is casting a shadow over the country, including past athletes he has worked with - and his coaching techniques. In the second half, Claudio gives an insight into Sawe’s remarkable run in London and talks about his targets in the future, including the Olympics and more technical courses. We also talk about Wanyonyi’s chances of breaking the 800m world record, whether he could move up in distance, and tactical plans for the New York City Marathon - where Benson Kipruto leads the men’s field.
