Results Reuters   Listener question from Dominic asks how to mentally recover and reset from a marathon DNF, then Moose asks the boys what the traits of a good running coach are.   Steve Moneghetti is back for another yarn, this time with his performances at the 1989 & 1995 London Marathons. After the debut in the distance in the 1986 Edinburgh Commonwealth Games winning the bronze medal and consistent selection for World Championship races, it was time to see how fast Steve was capable of in the distance. Steve chats about the allure of getting paid to travel and race at the 1989 London Marathon and taking his physio along for the ride, sharing in some of the misadventures in races during the training campaign. While highlighting some of the differences between training then and now, Steve enjoyed the low-key setting of Richmond between races, including 4th place at the World Cross Country Championships in Stavanger, Norway and even chipping in to help the organizers of the London Marathon, before the pressure really ramped up in the form of a young Bruce McAvaney, as well as other life circumstances. Steve shares how he handled that deep field and then recaps the race, including the drama at the drink station at 35k leading into the closing stages of that race and what doors that second place in 2:09:06 meant to him. From there they go to repeating the silver-medal performance in the 1995 edition of the race, bettering his time to 2:08:33 against Dionicio Ceron of Mexico and how the tactics of the race played out into the results, as well as just how many donuts Mona can eat at dessert. Closing out this conversation Mona gives his thoughts on the change in sports, touches on his current fitness and whether he’d pull on a Ballarat singlet right now, coaching and how he’s staying engaged with the running community during the pandemic.

Steve recalls the lead-up to that race, including taking the World’s Best in the Half Marathon at the Great North Run two weeks out, with Nic Bideau desperately getting the story to the papers back home and enduring the depletion diet. Steve shares the significance of the event at that time in history, and what it meant for the eventual winner of the women’s race Uta Pippig to run through the Brandenburg Gate for the first time as well as the differences between what the race was back then in terms of the build-up and atmosphere compared to the spectacle it is now. Recounting the moments of crossing the finish line, Steve talks about what the victory meant to him, what he would have done differently and the aftermath of his career profile.
