MOTATAPU 2024 Episode 1: RUN MOTATAPU brought to you by CP MEDIA

In this episode, we put a spotlight on the Motatapu Run events. They are all very unique in their own right offering a very different challenge to participants. From an actioned packed 15kms of the UDC FINANCE Miners trail, the epic Motatapu Valley of the Marathon to the raw adventure of the Motatapu Ultra there is something for everyone.

In our first Motatapu Podcast for the season we talk to three entrants that are lining up the 2024 event to share their Motatapu stories and find out what they are looking to achieve by crossing the finish line on Saturday 2 March 2024.

Kylie Bulling: A determined mum of two balancing training and family life while pursuing her 2024 Trail Marathon goal. Kylie tackled the UDC Finance Miners Trail earlier this year. @flourishingafterforty

Gary Kirkman: A seasoned Motatapu Trail Marathon participant with 16 events under his belt, sharing his advice for first-timers. Nick Boyd: Taking on the Ultra in 2024, inspired by someone who started him running 14 years ago.

Season 5 Episode 4 of the Kathmandu Coast to Coast Podcast, powered by Team CP

Episode 4 of this season is all about managing your expectations.

First up we are joined by Paula Rule from The Mental Edge. A big source of nerves in the lead-up to the Coast to Coast and standing on the start line comes from the expectations of others. For those at the top of the field, it could be through media and sponsors but for most of us, there is a perceived expectation from friends and family. These may be to win, to achieve a good result in your category or to complete the event. Paula will offer some advice for athletes on how to manage these expectations.

Ben Jordan is also on the show. While most events these days can be done solo where there is one transition and an athlete can turn up with their gear and go for it. The Kathmandu Coast to Coast is different as there are some tricky logistics spread across over 200kms of windy New Zealand Roads. Ben was one of Team CP's supported athletes in 2023, so we are going to have a chat with him about his experience and what tips he has for others.

We also chat with Alice Mullins, who is lining up with the elites this year in the Longest Day. Alice will give us an insight into her strategies around how to manage personal expectations.

Stay tuned for an action-packed season!
