#26 - How Running Saved Me: The Personal Story Behind That’s Runnable | RunBiz w/ UNA Watch

In this deeply personal and unmissable episode, Tommy revisits the story behind how running, strength, and mindfulness became his anchors during the most challenging period of his life. Through raw storytelling and honest reflection, he shares how discovering the feedback loop of mindful movement, the intersection of running, strength, and presence, transformed not just his training, but his entire outlook on life.

This philosophy is at the heart of That’s Runnable, shaping both the Coaching Hub and the future of this podcast. Tommy also gives listeners a sneak peek at what's to come, from the ethos behind the coaching platform to the direction of future episodes.

Plus, this episode introduces RunBiz, a brand new segment exploring businesses shaping the running world. In its first instalment, Tommy sits down with Lewis Allison, Founder & CEO of UNA Watch, a challenger GPS watch company disrupting the industry with its modular, consumer-first design.

As usual, we finish with some listener questions, this time covering everything from shoe rotations to using poles in training and staying motivated when the grind gets tough.

This is one of those episodes that will hit home for anyone who’s ever used running as a way to find themselves. Vulnerable, insightful, and packed with value - don’t miss it.
