Episode 85 | Max Davidson | State Cross Country Championships | Perth Half Preview

Monday 28th July 2025. 

The man with the hair, and this year's inaugural Todd Ingraham Legacy Trophy winner Max Davidson joins us on the pod to chat about his 2025 Rotto marathon win, his running journey and progression, and the story behind the inaugural Rotto marathon bib on his back. 

This week we cover results from the City to Surf Karratha edition, the State Cross Country Championships with some close results, and PTS Truth and Consequences. 

We preview the upcoming state half marathon championships aka the Perth Half this Sunday, where we make wild and most likely inaccurate predictions. 

In WARP admin, we tease our upcoming training series, and Carl Harrison, Colin Dismuke, Pamela and Mikaela from WAMC, and Vlad’s dog Lily feature in this week’s Weapons of WARP.
