33: Rose Davies - Friendship, discovering naps and growing up
Fresh off breaking her own Australian 5000m record at the London Diamond League, Rose Davies is showing she belongs among the world’s best. At just 25, the two-time Olympian talks about racing on the sport’s biggest stages, learning from fellow athletes and why friendships matter as much as the medals.
We cover her record run in London, what she took from Tokyo and Paris, and how she’s refined her approach to peak for the right races. Rose opens up about walking away from the sport as a junior after crippling pre-race anxiety and burnout, the road back with long-time coach Scott Westcott, and how she’s learned to keep happiness at the heart of her running - even at the elite level.
Rose Davies is one of Australia’s leading long-distance runners, holding the national records for both the 5000m (14:31) and 10,000m (30:34) on the track. After a challenging transition from junior to senior ranks, she broke through with podium finishes at the Zatopek 10,000m in 2021 and 2022, earning selection for the Tokyo Olympics. Since then, Rose has made Olympic and World Championship finals, won Zatopek a third time, broken Australian records, and cemented her place among the country’s top distance athletes.
