About the show

Motional Intelligence is a podcast for people who enjoy pushing themselves (and for the rest who'd rather watch, ideally seated). Every Thursday I talk to athletes and content creators about what's really going on when it gets hard: marathon training that wrecks social plans, personal bests nobody claps for, and the 5K that felt like an IRONMAN at the time. Runners, this is your KM-after-KM companion. Everyone else, feel free to just feel vaguely inspired. Motivation, movement, and some truly terrible takes. This is Motional Intelligence with Calum Goddard!
