From Running Ban To Marathon Redemption with Sarah Klein

After representing Australia twice over two years, and preparing for what was to hopefully be her first Olympic games, Aussie marathon runner Sarah Klein was given the shock of her life when she received a letter from ASADA banning her for 4 years… After providing a clean ‘A sample’ for testing, there was a mix-up in communication between Sarah and ASADA as she didn’t provide a B sample as well, and unknowing to her resulted in an automatic 4-year ban. What followed was years of distress, fighting and having to rethink her entire running career. Like us, you will no doubt be a big fan of Sarah after listening to her story and how she got through this battle to make it back for ultimate Marathon redemption at the 2022 World Champs.    Timestamp: 00:00 - Introduction 00:55 - Sarah Klein - Australia’s Top Marathoner 04:33 - What Running Means To Sarah 07:55 -  Representing The Country In The Commonwealth Games 10:25 - Preparation From Glasgow To Beijing 13:35 - The Turning Point In Sarah’s Career 19:05 - Sarah’s Mindset On The 4-year Ban 27:30 - Never Give Up Attitude 31:22- Sarah’s Journey Towards The World Championship 36:48 - Sarah’s Melbourne PB Performance 38:50 - Race Strategy Coming From Injury 44:05 - Timeline Of Races And Selection Process 45:42 - The Change That Made A Big Difference 48:10 - A Snapshot On Sarah’s Training Week 52:50 - The World Championships Race 55:20 - Strategy/Mindset During The World Championship 59:29 - The Unfavorable Race Condition PB 1:01:35 - Sarah’s Longest Standing Relationship With Her Coach 1:02:35 - Sarah’s Learnings Throughout Her Journey 1:06:30 - What’s Next For Sarah If you want to learn how to TRAIN SMARTER and RACE FASTER, you can join our weekly coaching email, just go to: getfastpodcast.com Some of you might already be in there, but many of you won’t be and so this is our official invitation for you to come and join our free community: www.facebook.com/groups/trivelocoaching Check us out on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/trivelocoaching/ Disclaimer: The Content in this podcast is in no way intended to be medical advice, treatment or diagnoses.
