The race takes place annually in Death Valley, California, during the scorching heat of summer. It spans 135 miles (217 km) through unforgiving desert terrain, including steep climbs and challenging conditions. Lewis has completed this grueling race multiple times, showcasing his mental and physical strength.In addition to Badwater, Harvey Lewis has taken part in numerous other ultramarathons around the world, including the Spartathlon in Greece and the Jungle Marathon in Brazil. He has consistently demonstrated his ability to endure extreme conditions and push himself to new limits.Apart from his remarkable athletic feats, Lewis is also a dedicated schoolteacher.

Lowri Morgan is blooming' incredible. She is an ultra runner (despite a being told after a rugby accident that she would never run again), BAFTA winning presenter for S4C, Eisteddfod winner, and has lived with a nomadic tribe in Namibia. She is one of the few people on the planet to have taken the 2.5 hour submersion journey underwater (that's just to get to the sea bed) to see the Titanic in her final resting place. She has completed the 200 mile Dragon Back Ultra Race, the 350 mile Arctic Ultra and the 220km Jungle Marathon. She is quite possibly the toughest women I've ever met. She is a lesson in perseverance, in saying 'yes' and the woman who brings us the nine life rules of Nel. Buy Lowri's book, Beyond Limits from your local book shop or the usual outlets.

As a female wellsite geologist working within the male-dominated offshore oil and gas, coal seam gas and minerals industries, life is always interesting. But Amanda Barlow does much more than that. Starting out as a recreational marathon runner she now has run 47 marathons in 16 different countries and is a member of The Seven Continents Marathon Club. In the Jungle Marathon, in Brazil she wrote about that experience “Call of the Jungle – How a Camping-Hating City-Slicker Mum Survived an Ultra Endurance race through the Amazon Jungle.” She’s tackled extreme events in exciting parts of the world, like the Great Wall of China, the Inca Trail and Antarctica.  “An Inconvenient Life: My Unconventional Career as a Wellsite Geologist” is Amanda’s second book which documents her career as a Geologist and how she ended up working as a wellsite geologist on offshore oil and gas rigs. "Offshore Oil and Gas PEOPLE" Amanda's third book, is an overview of what it’s like to work on an offshore oilrig, and the role everyone plays. This handy guide serves as a pre-deployment induction manual for all new starters in the industry so they know what to expect when they get to a rig for the first time or for people wanting to get into the industry. It’s also an informative guide for family and friends of offshore workers. What are Amanda’s thoughts and advice for others? Writing a book will help you become a perceived authority in your field, but it’s not a wealth creator and you can’t go into a project hoping to achieve that, but to achieve a lot as Amanda has done requires discipline, fitness and staying focused. Do that in any endeavour then you can do it!

For many of us, attempting a marathon is a daunting idea. But what about if that marathon was 13 miles a day for six days - but with two marathons (26 miles in one day!) in the middle for good measure? And to top it off - what about if it was in the middle of the Amazon jungle?   This is the incredible story of Josie Benson - theatre actress turned marathon runner, who at the age of 40, decided to challenge herself and get into long distance running. Josie tells us how running has helped her to develop powerful inner self-belief and how positive self-talk can be harnessed to create an inspired life.   Josie shares with us her key beliefs throughout this extraordinary podcast including: Not letting age slow you down Help others to feel inspired and alive Love yourself - don't take yourself too seriously! Look for 'angels' - the small miracles that make all the difference. How would better self-talk impact your life? Would you fancy tackling the Jungle Marathon?!
