Re-Launch: Sub 2:15 Project - Vlog 001
I’m relaunching Sweat Elite by returning to why I started it in 2016 - to learn how elite runners train after my own middle-distance career and Olympic attempts. Train with Sweat Elite Coaching: https://sweatelitecoaching.com/matt-fox/ Supporters Club - Private Podcast Feed + Discord: https://www.sweatelite.co/shareholders/ Contact: matt@sweatelite.co Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattinglisfox/ Strava Training Log: https://www.strava.com/athletes/6248359 The platform grew from articles to a podcast and YouTube, but over time I became conflicted about covering pros due to doping and struggled with the mental toll of constant travel. By late 2024, the focus shifted to my own marathon journey. I was absent for 12 months after being detained in Japan for four and a half months in 2025 while traveling to Osaka, then returning home and suffering a sacral stress fracture. I’ve been out for nearly five months, cross-training and rehabbing. The channel will now document rebuilding from scratch and chasing a faster marathon. I’m currently 80.7 kg, aiming for 66 to 67 kg over 12 to 18 months, training around 100 to 120 km per week when healthy, plus gym and cross-training. I coach and train by effort, not metric obsession. I’m sharing the full process - rehab, scans, sleep struggles, diet changes, and athlete coaching wins - documenting the comeback before I’m even cleared to run.
