What does it really take to go from a 3:25 marathoner to running 2:27 at Berlin this past weekend? In this episode, we sit down with our friend and fellow runner, Seb Hansen, who has just run a huge 2:27 marathon at Berlin. Seb has balanced training for Berlin around a busy summer travelling and a full time job. His marathon journey is a brilliant example of what can happen when you consistently build your training over several years. His first marathon was 3:25, and since then he has transformed himself into a sub-2:30 marathoner. We talk about:
We originally met through running in Kenya, so it was brilliant to sit down and hear the story behind such a huge breakthrough. If you're chasing a marathon PB yourself, there are plenty of lessons in this conversation - whether your goal is 3:30, 3:00, 2:45 or simply becoming the best runner you can be.

Imagine getting a place in the London Marathon ballot and then realising you actually have to run 26.2 miles? This was Rob! After always dreaming of getting into the London Marathon, when the ballot place landed in his inbox, it was everything that Rob needed to train for London. Starting out with ChatGPT and then stumbling upon our podcast. Rob realised that AI would only get him so far. He joined the Hub last summer and joined forces with James. He went from strength to strength and learnt a lot along the way before marathon training even properly started. Having to train around shift work too, James always made sure Rob was on track, holding him back when needed and also pushing at the right time. The team and partnership between them lead Rob to having a great marathon training block and awesome race, even in tough hot conditions. This is a wonderful story to share with you today on the podcast and we hope you enjoy the conversation.
