Adam Roeske’s Marathon Journey & GOES Health App | Fireside Chat Ep. 124

In the 124th episode of Fireside Chat from the Everyday Athlete podcast network, guest Adam Roeske shares an inspiring story that will resonate with endurance athletes striving to take their training to the next level. Hosts Jason Bahamundi and Aum Gandhi discuss Adam's preparation for the New York City Marathon—his first ever—and the unique hurdles he faces as an international entrepreneur balancing work, travel, and intense marathon training. If you're looking for motivation to start or maintain your training, this conversation is packed with practical tips, real-life challenges, and a sense of adventure that will leave you ready to tackle your next race.

Adam selected the iconic New York City Marathon for its high-energy atmosphere, but his journey hasn’t been typical. As someone constantly on the move, his training has spanned multiple continents, forcing him to adapt to different environments and terrains. From the bustling streets of Manhattan to rugged trails overseas, Adam's story highlights the power of perseverance and the thrill of exploring the world while staying fit.

A central topic of discussion in this episode is the innovative GOES Health app, which Adam co-developed to enhance outdoor safety and provide essential medical guidance. Whether you're training in remote locations or simply preparing for your next race, this app is a game-changer. Adam explains how the app offers real-time weather data, location-based health risks, and 24/7 access to wilderness medicine experts—all designed to keep athletes like you safe and informed while outdoors. His firsthand experience using the app in his own training demonstrates how it can be an invaluable tool for endurance athletes everywhere.

Beyond training talk, the conversation takes a fun twist as Adam and the host dive into food debates that any athlete can relate to. From the great pineapple-on-pizza controversy to choosing the best dessert for post-race indulgence, the lighter side of the chat offers laughs and relatable moments. Adam even shares his quirky habits, like his love for unusual candies and his limited consumption of coffee.

If you're an endurance athlete looking for inspiration, practical advice, and a few good laughs, this episode is a must-listen.
