Episode Description from the Publisher

Dan & Owain dive into a taboo area of endurance sports, one that has returned as a discussion point following Josh Kerr's mile world record - weight. Tackling the subject through the lens of a fantastic case study by Trent Stellingwerff, they discuss the importance of weight and body composition, and share some thoughts about when you might want to think about this yourself.
