Can you pinpoint anything that's really helped you change that cycle, um, from those years of disruptions to the consistency you can have?

Max BurginGUEST
It's tricky, uh, 'cause I've sort of bounced around several different issues which have all got various different causes.

Max BurginGUEST
I think what sort of started me off on my injury woes, I guess, y- like back in like 2018, 2019, was just hitting a point in my running where I was running times that my body really wasn't conditioned or prepared to do.

Max BurginGUEST
Um, you know, I was, uh, I, I, I had several years of-Constant sort of hamstring, tendony inju- issues.

Max BurginGUEST
And that, uh, boiled down to the fact that my tendons just weren't really strong enough to be, to be doing the kind of training and, and, and, uh, and kind of work that I was e- expecting from them.

Max BurginGUEST
So I guess if you, as a, as a junior runner, get started on that, on that sort of conditioning, that's, that, that gym work, not, not to build power, but to build, um, to, to bulletproof yourself almost.

Is that by choice, or is that just the way it's figured out that, yeah, you end up on your own?
