Wednesday, 16 April, 2025
Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! In this episode, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon Interviews Scot Davis, a Purple Patch Athlete and Chief Operating Officer at Crow Holdings, who completed the World Marathon Challenge, running seven marathons in seven days across seven continents. His journey began after caring for his mother with pancreatic cancer. Initially training with a previous coach, he transitioned to Purple Patch Fitness Coach Will Turner, who reduced his running volume and introduced multi-sport training. Despite challenges like illness and extreme conditions, Scot completed the challenge, setting a world record for the shortest duration. Post-challenge, he aims to run 52 marathons in a year. Scot emphasized the importance of a strong support system and mental resilience. Dixon outlines the episode's focus on Scot's preparation, mindset, and the lessons learned from completing the World Marathon Challenge. Scot's transition to training with Coach Will Turner focuses on multi-sport, strength training, and nutrition. Scot discusses the physical toll of high-volume training and the importance of rest and recovery.
