Ed Goddard

Distance Runner. 2:12 Marathoner. Rhise Ambassador.

With personal bests of 61:58 in the half marathon, 28:23 over 10km, and a 2:12 marathon, Ed Goddard is one of Australia’s most exciting distance talents. But it’s not just the times that set him apart — it’s the way he does it.

Known for his unmistakable mullet and front-running style, Ed brings a unique blend of intensity and ease to the sport. For him, running is more than a performance pursuit — it’s a lifestyle. A way to explore the world, to clear the mind, and to stay connected to something simple and real.

Whether he’s chasing splits or chasing the sun along Sydney’s coastline, Ed trains with purpose but lives with balance. His commitment to improvement is constant, but never forced — driven by curiosity, not pressure. He proves that elite performance and enjoyment don’t have to be at odds.

Ed shares his training life with his partner and fellow Rhise Ambassador, Izzy Murphy — both pushing each other to be better while keeping the process light, fun, and grounded.

Now part of the Rhise team, Ed sees the partnership as a natural extension of his approach. “Rhise fits perfectly into the way I train and recover. It’s performance without compromise — and that’s exactly what I look for.”

At Rhise, we’re proud to back Ed — an athlete who runs his own race, on his own terms, and does it all with clarity, confidence, and consistency.
