#Ep 79 | Everything That Can Go Wrong on Race Day
<p>Sydney Marathon is four days away and you've got nothing left to gain. Only nervous energy to lose.</p><p>Emergency episode. Matt and Georgia work through every race-week fear runners actually have: heavy shakeout-run legs, a bad night's sleep, carb loading, and whether you'll make it to 42. Matt's worst-case exercise for killing head noise, the sleep study that proves one rough night won't cost you, and carb loading without the maths. Plus listener Q&A on triathlon vs marathon fitness and whether Pilates counts as strength work. Matt also explains the 17 stitches that just put his sub-10 Ironman at 50/50.</p><p>💻 Join The Performance Project Coaching:<br /><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://performanceproject.typeform.com/apply?utm_source=btfl" target="_blank">https://performanceproject.typeform.com/apply?utm_source=btfl</a></p><p>📸 Follow BTFL:<br /><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/beyondthefinishline_pod/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/beyondthefinishline_pod/</a></p><p>📸 Follow Coach Matt:<br /><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/mattb_performance/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/mattb_performance/</a></p><p>📸 Follow Georgia:<br /><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/georgiahillis/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/georgiahillis/</a></p><p>📸 Follow The Performance Project:<br /><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/the_performance_project_/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/the_performance_project_/</a></p>
