Description

We wrap up the Gold Coast Marathon series with BRONTE’S MARATHON MASTERCLASS.


All good things come to those who train… and trust the plan. In this post-race episode, we relive Bronte Langbroek’s triumphant debut marathon at the ASICS Gold Coast Marathon—clocking a near-perfect 4:29 after months of build-up with Benita from Lace Up Running. She shares every gritty, joyful, and gel-fuelled detail, from pacing with precision to emotional finish line moments.


Liam dishes on his new role as race-day MC alongside the legendary Pete Murray, bleeding nipples and all. Courtney reflects on the series' full-circle moment, and the team swaps favourite signs, Strava stats, and future race plans (Melbourne, Noosa… maybe the Halfway House gets real?).


If you’ve followed the journey from Week 1 to 42.195K, this episode is the ultimate payoff. Thank you for running with us.
