What does it mean to be an explorer?What are the sacrifices one must take?What are the benefits of putting yourself through such hard physical challenges?This week we speak to Damian Browne, an extreme adventurer, peak performance athlete and International keynote speaker from Galway, Ireland. For the last 25 years Damian has pursued his human potential, relentlessly pushing his body & mind to their perceived limits; forging himself & his character in what he deems “a crucible life”. During a 16-year career as a professional rugby player, Damian donned the colours of some of rugby's European elite, including Northampton Saints & Leinster; where he won club rugby's biggest prize, The Heineken Cup. Since retirement from professional rugby, Damian has become one of the World's foremost extreme adventurers; undertaking some of the most demanding physical and mental challenges on the planet, including the 257km Sahara Desert ultra marathon, The Marathon des Sables, climbed 5 of the 7 Summits, a renowned mountaineering feat & most recently created history by becoming the first person ever to row from New York City to Galway, taking 112 days and in the process become one of only a handful of people to have rowed the Atlantic in both directions.Damian's drive to explore his physical & mental limits is not exclusive to ultra endurance events and he is a multi-time Irish indoor rowing champion, holding all-time, all-category records for the 500m and 1000m distance.We were lucky to have had Damian in the studio with us for this episode, a brilliant and deep character, we hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did.Lots of love,Dave & Steve Hosted on Acast.

En cette première semaine de 2023, TIP & SHAFT vous propose d'écouter ou de ré-écouter le 2e épisode de POS. REPORT le plus suivis en 2022. Votre podcast revient dans son format habituel la semaine prochaine, le 10 janvier. Toute l'équipe de Tip & Shaft vous souhaite une très bonne année 2023. Ce 76e épisode de Pos. Report est consacré à la Vendée Arctique-Les Sables d'Olonne, dont le départ sera donné dimanche 12 juin à 17h depuis le port de départ et d'arrivée du Vendée Globe. Nos invités sont trois concurrents parmi les 25 inscrits à cette course en solitaire réservée aux Imoca : Thomas Ruyant, Romain Attanasio et Benjamin Ferré. Nous commençons cet épisode par l'évocation de la grande parade des skippers du Vendée Globe, qui s'est déroulée vendredi dernier : un moment sympa, avec "un monde fou", comme toujours aux Sables d'Olonne, et un moyen aussi de se retrouver entre coureurs du Vendée plus d'un an après l'arrivée, Benjamin Ferré, bizuth en Imoca, l'ayant suivi depuis... son balcon ! Place, ensuite à l'analyse de la première épreuve Imoca de la saison, la Guyader Bermudes 1000 Race : confirmation que les costauds, comme Jérémie Beyou, Thomas Ruyant - "déçu" de son abandon mais "dans le match" - et Charlie Dalin sont au rendez-vous de ce début de saison, Thomas Ruyant confiant que le skipper d'Apivia s'annonçait difficile à prendre dans les courses avec des phases de transition. Et confirmation, côté Benjamin Ferré, qui n'avait pas navigué en solo depuis sa dernière Mini Transat en 2019, qu'il prenait beaucoup de plaisir à découvrir l'Imoca, cornaqué par Jean Le Cam. Quant à Romain Attanasio, accaparé par des opérations de RP entre Angleterre et Portugal, il n'a pas couru mais a beaucoup navigué sur bateau pendant un mois. Nos invités évoquent ensuite le parcours très particulier de cette Vendée Arctique, avec cette route plein Nord ou presque, le tour de l'Islande, avec le Groënland à proximité. Tous s'accordent à dire que l'épreuve, longue de 3 500 milles, s'annonce plus dure que la Route du Rhum, censée être le point d'orgue de l'année - "la Vendée Artcique est le très gros morceau de la saison", selon Thomas Ruyant, Romain Attanasio rappelant que, contrairement aux habitudes, "les marins seront traversés par les systèmes météo". De quoi rendre prudent Benjamin Ferré - bien content de ne pas avoir de foils ! -, qui a pour objectif principal de terminer l'épreuve, de "naviguer à mon niveau" et de poursuivre son apprentissage en Imoca, ses deux aînés s'attendant à une course très physique, avec beaucoup de changements de voiles...  Thomas Ruyant, depuis qu'il a gagné la Transat Jacques Vabre, vise désormais le podium et en particulier sa plus haute marche : "On ne va pas se mentir, je veux finir, mais devant". Romain, lui, garde en tête les milles à accumuler et la nécessité de ramener le bateau de contrées particulièrement peu hospitalières en cas de soucis. Quant à Benjamin Ferré, s'il est concerné lui aussi par la course aux milles, il cherche à ne pas trop y penser, participant à toutes les courses du circuit Imoca d'ici le départ du Vendée Globe. Nos trois invités concluent cet échange par un point sur l'évolution de leurs projets : un bateau neuf - plan Koch-Finot/Conq - mis à l'eau début 2023 pour Thomas Ruyant ; des évolutions en cours de réflexion côté Romain Attanasio, qui continue la prise en main de l'ex Malizia ; de la fiabilisation avant toute chose et pas de foils pour l'ex SMA de Benjamin Ferré.

Comment se lance-t-on le défi de nager 30km en eau libre alors qu'on n'en sent pas vraiment capable ? Et surtout comment réussi-t-on ? C'est le coeur de ma discussion avec Charles, devenu Champion du Monde de son Monde en nageant le Morocco Swim Trek.Je suis Charles Brumauld depuis des mois et j'adore son contenu Instagram. Sa manière de parler de nutrition fait du bien et les personnages qu'il incarne nous font mourir de rire à la maison.Il y a quelques temps j'ai vu que Charles se mettait à nager plus… beaucoup plus. Et il avait fait un 10km. Je lui ai dit Bravo Champion du Monde ton Monde et je l'ai invité pour qu'il nous en parle. Il m'a alors dit qu'il préparait un autre truc bien plus gros… mais sans me dire quoi. Alors j'ai creusé et j'ai découvert une compétition et une aventure dont je ne connaissais pas l'existence : le Morocco Swim Trek. Un trek de 40km de nage en eau libre au Maroc en 4 jours que je compare au Marathon des Sables. Dans cet épisode Charles nous explique comment lui est venu cette idée, comment il s'est préparé, comment se sont passés ces 4 jours, son alimentation aussi un peu et la suite de ses aventures. Nous avons aussi parlé de son compte Instagram, nos émotions, ce qu'il partage, ses personnages…Une discussion passionnante qui j'espère vous plaira autant qu'à moi.Son compte Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/charlesbrumauld/Son site : https://www.charlesbrumauld.comSon compte TikTok : https://www.tiktok.com/@letiktoknutriLe site du Morocco Swim Trek : http://www.moroccoswimtrek.comTous les liens et son podcast : https://campsite.to/charlesbrumauldLes bonus du podcast (dont mes recettes de cuisine) : https://bertrandsoulier.com/bonusNouveau mon canal Telegram Viens Courir avec Moi : https://t.me/bertrandsoulierMes programmes sport : https://bertrandsoulier.com/programmes-sport/Réserve ton accompagnement : https://calendly.com/bertrandsoulier/accompagnement-sportif-mentalPose ta question en audio pour les épisodes Le Conseil : https://www.shello.io/bertrandsoulier/km42Mon site avec tous les épisodes, mon parcours, des recettes, des récits de course : https://bertrandsoulier.comLa chaîne YouTube du Hamsters Running Club : http://bertrand.video/hamstersRejoindre la communauté du Hamsters Running Club : https://membres.hamstersrunning.club/ Hébergé par Acast.

Si vous êtes une ou un fidèle du podcast, ce que j'espère, vous avez déjà croisé la route de Mérile Robert, que j'avais pu suivre à l'occasion du Marathon des Sables 2022, et sur lequel il a signé une brillante 4ème place au classement général et une 1ère place dans sa catégorie.Adepte des formats longs à étapes, Mérile a pris le départ il y a quelques semaines du Grand to Grand, une course de 250km en 6 étapes aux Etats-Unis, qui relie le Grand Canyon au Grand Staircase, donnant ainsi son nom à la course.Mérile va nous faire vivre avec lui son rêve américain et nous faire vibrer dans sa foulée au cœur des dunes de sable, des sentiers forestiers, des routes rocheuses ou encore des canyons qu'il a rencontrés au fil de sa course. J'ai passé un GRAND moment avec lui, je suis certain que ça sera le cas pour vous aussi.Mais je ne vous en dis pas plus, Mérile va vous raconter tout ça bien mieux que moi.Bienvenue dans notre nouvel épisode de Course Épique “Dans la cour des Grands”.***Course Épique, c'est le podcast running et trail qui vous fait vivre dans chaque épisode une histoire de course hors du commun.Pour ne rien manquer de notre actualité et vivre les coulisses du podcast, suivez-nous sur Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/courseepique.podcast/Retrouvez également Course Epique en vidéo sur YouTube : https://bit.ly/courseepique_youtubeCourse Épique, un podcast imaginé et animé par Guillaume Lalu et produit par Sportcast Studios Hébergé par Acast.

Running With The Kenyans is the story of how Adharanand moved his family to Kenya for 6 months so that he could explore why Kenyan runners are so dominant. Adharanand discovered a talent for running at a young age, but like many kids in sport, ended up getting distracted along the way and not realizing his potential. He continued to run in adulthood, but never really pushed his limits due to family obligations with 3 young kids. As the world was watching Kenyan athletes rise to the top and sweep the podiums of many major races, Adharanand was wondering what their secret is. With the approval of his wife (who was up for the adventure), they moved their 3 young kids to Kenya for 6 months so that Adharanand could train with the best runners in the world. The book is divided into 25 numbered chapters. Each chapter included a piece of Adharanand's journey to improve his own running, find the Kenyan running secret and some side stories about people that Adharanand met along the way.Adharanand Finn is an Assistant production editor for the Guardian newspaper in the UK, freelance writer and author of 3 award winning running books:Running with Kenyans - the topic of this episodeThe Way of the Runner - Which talks about Japanese obsessive running cultureRise of the Ultra Runners – Which talks about ultra-endurance runners and what makes them want to complete gruelling endurance events like the Marathon des Sables. If you are interested in Adharanand's most recent book, Rise of the Ultra Runners, you can check out our previous episodes because we had the pleasure of interviewing him!If you are interested in getting a copy of the book for yourself, you can find it on amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/Running-Kenyans-Adharanand-Finn/dp/0571274064/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1667771695&sr=8-1  Any feedback or suggestions on this review or any of our other podcast episodes would be greatly welcomed.

In August 2017, Nick Ashhill was 81 punishing days into his run from one side of America to the other- LA to NY. He didn't finish the run though.  He was the victim of what he is certain was a deliberate hit and run from some meth-head in a pick-up truck (my words, not his) accident that left him fighting for his life. 16 surgeries and 5 years later, Nick went back to the spot of his accident to finish what he started.  He's done some other pretty epic organised events too- like the Comrades ultramarathon in South Africa and the marathon de Sables stage race in the Morroccon desert. This is definitely one for the running nerds.  But I reckon its also just a pretty interesting story about an ordinary kiwi whose done some pretty extraordinary stuff despite some serious big hurdles to overcome.  If this clip sounds like a bit of you.  Subscribe and it'll be delivered to your device early Monday AM.

Simon Hollis has run a lot of miles - but its debatable whether or not he's spent more time organising other people to run even more! As the founder of Go Beyond Challenge, he is Race Director of a host of events including Northampton Half Marathon and the Shires and Spires Ultra Marathon. Simon spoke to Running Tales about the challenges - and rewards - organising such large scale events required, as well as his own running story which includes completing several of the world's most gruelling ultras, not least the Marathon des Sables. And for those of you who love the Northampton Half Marathon, we also learnt a little bit more about the soon to be revealed, new course for what, in years to come, will be the 'Great Northampton Half'...   ---------------------------------- If you like this episode please consider donating to help us keep going: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/stepforward The music in this podcast is: "Fearless First" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

"Je crois au lycée professionnel, sinon je ne serais pas là, et je n'aurais pas décidé d'en faire une des réformes phares.

About Sabrina   Sabrina Pace-Humphreys is a 44-year-old mother of 4 and grandmother of 3, an award-winning businesswoman, an ultrarunner, a social justice activist and a recovering alcoholic. She is a mixed-raced woman, the daughter of a white Scottish Roman Catholic woman and a Black man.    In July 2020 she co-founded the fast-growing community and campaigning charity, Black Trail Runners, and is also a well-known ultra-marathon runner. She finished the 'toughest footrace on earth', a 250km multi-stage marathon across the Sahara Desert known as the Marathon des Sables, as 10th UK woman and most recently she completed the Spine Race, a non-stop 268 miles race down the Pennine Way.    Sabrina is the author of Black Sheep: A Story of Rural Racism, Identity and Hope “In Black Sheep, Sabrina reveals how she got from there to here: about growing up in a home, a school and a town where no-one looked like her and her subsequent struggle to understand and find her identity; about her lived experience of rural racism; about becoming a teenage mother and her determination to break that stereotype; about her battle with alcoholism and her mental health; about how running saved her life; and ultimately about how someone can not only survive but thrive in spite of their past. Sabrina's experience will chime with anyone who has felt like an outsider. Poignant and eye-opening, and exploring themes of trauma, identity, mental health and addiction, Black Sheep is a tale of triumph: of grit and determination, of hope over despair.”   New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast go live every Tuesday 7am UK time - Subscribe button so you don't miss out.    To find out more about supporting your favourite podcast and becoming a patron please visit www.patreon.com/toughgirlpodcast.      Show Notes Who is Sabrina Previously chatting on the TGP - July 7th 2020 What was happening in late 2020 Launching Black Trail Runners (BTR) in July 2020 Black Trail Runners - writing an open letter to race organisers  Taking about the issues and the lack of diversity in trail runners Moving house, welcoming a new grandchild, running the Ramsey Round Doing the 3 peaks challenge and seeing me at the top of Ben Nevis (Watch the vlog) Building the community of Black Trail Runners and the impact  Having the uncomfortable conversations Collecting ethnicity data Having a BTR race fund  Taking real action and breaking down the barriers Running the 4.5% challenge in 2021 Working with youth groups Coping with the mental and emotional pressure Running and mental health Running as a form at activism Understanding her why of running the Spine Race The Spine Race  Working with her running coach Damien Hall Figuring out her race strategy and how her race goals changed over time Focusing on the “B” goal - completing the race Focusing on 10k stretches and reaching certain views  Keeping in the moment and not thinking about the full distance Struggling with sleep deprivation and figuring out a new sleep strategy The power of sleep and needing 30 mins of sleep at every checkpoint Dealing with food pain and having to implement a pain management strategy Training for the Spine Race and what a typical week looked life Doing more back to back training runs and weighted runs Winning her first ultra marathon!  Kissing a wall The lessons learned from running the Spine Race “You can do hard things - you can do this” Being on the June cover of Women's Running UK  Book: Black Sheep: A Story of Rural Racism, Identity and Hope.

Grand retour d'Alix Noblat à Pas sorti du bois, après un passage marqué à l'épisode 85, quelques jours avant qu'elle ne se lance sur son second Marathon des Sables. Après un abandon difficile en 2021, Alix s'était promise de revenir au MDS dans un tout autre état d'esprit. Elle a finalement complété la mythique course saharienne, sourire au visage! Mais est-ce que tout s'est réellement passé comme prévu? On en profite aussi pour parler de sa préparation en vue de l'OCC, cette course alpine de 55 km et 3 500 m D+ qui a lieu à la fin du mois août dans le cadre de l'UTMB Mont-Blanc! Et comme lors de notre première jasette, on se lance dans une foule de sujets diversifiées, de l'entraînement à la nutrition en passant par l'attrait des longues distances et le besoin de se recentrer sur ses propres objectifs. Le thème de la pression s'est glissé dans notre échange, et Alix m'a expliqué comment elle la désamorce quand elle s'impose. Une discussion fascinante avec une athlète au rire contagieux! Bonne écoute.CréditsDesign graphique : David HébertThème musical : Frédérick DesrochesIdée originale, production, recherche et animation : Yannick Vézina© Pas sorti du bois 2022

Welcome to episode 103 of the Women's Running podcast. I'm your host Esther Newman, and she's your other host, Holly Taylor. In this episode of the podcast, we're talking to the very lovely Sabrina Pace-Humphreys. But before that, Holly and I chat about ultrarunning and the races we'd be keen to take on. Then we chat to Sabrina, who we've had on the pod before but wanted to get on again because of three huge things. Firstly, she's just completed the very brutal Spine Race and we want to find out ALL about it. No spoilers here, although I wil let you into a little quote she says, which is: “The Spine race makes the Marathon des Sables look like a picnic on a summer's day” and that's probably all you need to know. Secondly, we want to talk to her about her book, Black Sheep, which has just been published, in which among other things details the racism she experienced as the only black kid in a tiny village in England. Thirdly, we want to talk to her about the event she's holding on September 11th this year, Black To The Trails, a day that she has created to encourage more black and brown people to run on trails. She's encouraging everyone to attend if you're interested in running trails for the first time, and it's going to be a brilliant celebration of trail running, with lots of music, food and facepainting, as well as guided runs. Then Holly and I come back at the end to do the quiz that we didn't have enough time to hold for Sab – Holly is in the hotseat and the theme is ultrarunning...LinksGet your hands on your first issue of Women's Running magazine for just £1.

Chaque vendredi, du 29 juillet au 19 août, Tip & Shaft vous propose sa série estivale baptisée Un été de navigatrices. Nous avons en effet choisi de rediffuser quatre épisodes d'Into The Wind où l'on retrouve des femmes qui vont sur la mer en course, en solitaire ou en équipage.Et si nous avons choisi de mettre les femmes en avant cet été, c'est que Tip & Shaft lance fin septembre un nouveau podcast dédié aux femmes en course. Baptisé "Navigantes", il sera animé par Hélène Cougoule.

Today we spoke with John O'Regan - International ultrarunner, Martial artist, and Running coach John has conquered 7 marathons on 7 continents. This is a story of how a recreational runner learned about his body, studied physiology, and educated himself on the importance of preparation and planning…to conquer remarkable running feats, ultimately representing Ireland in several categories now. He competes in ultratrail, 100k and 24 hour and has a podcast called 'No Finish Line'. John defined ultrarunning for us and discussed why this sport is not crazy - it is about passion. He loves to run and loves where it brings him. Hear about a journey from the Marathon des Sables to Swedish survival training, to the Yukon, Poles - and what's next. John leaned into resilience, how to build it…and how to overcome the moment after the race, when you feel low - when the race is over. We learned about the value of discipline and sticking to a course for a specific goal, and how to listen to your body when you are physically and mentally challenging yourself. This was inspiring stuff! ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Highlights

In this week's episode of Run with Fitpage, we had the honor of speaking with the oldest finisher of Badwater 135, a runner who is 77 years young and an absolute inspiration - Bob Becker. Bob is an ultrarunner, who started endurance sports at nearly 40, and didn't stop even reaching 77! Since 2003, Bob Becker has run the Boston Marathon, climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro, raced in the 150-mile Marathon des Sables stage race in the Sahara Desert in Morocco and the 167-mile Grand 2 Grand Ultra stage race in the southwestern U.S.  In August 2016, Bob completed the 120-mile TransRockies stage race in Colorado.  In addition to two top 50 finishes at “Badwater” and the 2015 “Double”, Bob has completed multiple hundred and fifty-mile races on trails and roads, in the mountains and along the coast, provided crew and pacing support for friends who have run across the entire United States and completed many other adventures while surviving radical prostate cancer surgery in 2006 and recovering from a fractured femur during a race in ‘05. Bob ran his first marathon in 2002 at the age of 57.In this episode, Vikas discusses with Bob all about this year's Badwater 135, his struggle while completing the races in extreme heat, and a lot more. Vikas hosts this weekly podcast and enjoys nerding over-exercise physiology, nutrition, and endurance sport in general.  He aims to get people to get out and 'move'.  When he is not working, he is found running, almost always.  He can be found on nearly all social media channels but Instagram is preferred:)Reach out to Vikas:Instagram: @vikas_singhhLinkedIn: Vikas SinghGmail: vikas@fitpage.inTwitter: @vikashsingh1010

Ce 76e épisode de Pos. Report est consacré à la Vendée Arctique-Les Sables d'Olonne, dont le départ sera donné dimanche 12 juin à 17h depuis le port de départ et d'arrivée du Vendée Globe. Nos invités sont trois concurrents parmi les 25 inscrits à cette course en solitaire réservée aux Imoca : Thomas Ruyant, Romain Attanasio et Benjamin Ferré. Nous commençons cet épisode par l'évocation de la grande parade des skippers du Vendée Globe, qui s'est déroulée vendredi dernier : un moment sympa, avec "un monde fou", comme toujours aux Sables d'Olonne, et un moyen aussi de se retrouver entre coureurs du Vendée plus d'un an après l'arrivée, Benjamin Ferré, bizuth en Imoca, l'ayant suivi depuis... son balcon ! Place, ensuite à l'analyse de la première épreuve Imoca de la saison, la Guyader Bermudes 1000 Race : confirmation que les costauds, comme Jérémie Beyou, Thomas Ruyant - "déçu" de son abandon mais "dans le match" - et Charlie Dalin sont au rendez-vous de ce début de saison, Thomas Ruyant confiant que le skipper d'Apivia s'annonçait difficile à prendre dans les courses avec des phases de transition. Et confirmation, côté Benjamin Ferré, qui n'avait pas navigué en solo depuis sa dernière Mini Transat en 2019, qu'il prenait beaucoup de plaisir à découvrir l'Imoca, cornaqué par Jean Le Cam. Quant à Romain Attanasio, accaparé par des opérations de RP entre Angleterre et Portugal, il n'a pas couru mais a beaucoup navigué sur bateau pendant un mois. Nos invités évoquent ensuite le parcours très particulier de cette Vendée Arctique, avec cette route plein Nord ou presque, le tour de l'Islande, avec le Groënland à proximité. Tous s'accordent à dire que l'épreuve, longue de 3 500 milles, s'annonce plus dure que la Route du Rhum, censée être le point d'orgue de l'année - "la Vendée Artcique est le très gros morceau de la saison", selon Thomas Ruyant, Romain Attanasio rappelant que, contrairement aux habitudes, "les marins seront traversés par les systèmes météo". De quoi rendre prudent Benjamin Ferré - bien content de ne pas avoir de foils ! -, qui a pour objectif principal de terminer l'épreuve, de "naviguer à mon niveau" et de poursuivre son apprentissage en Imoca, ses deux aînés s'attendant à une course très physique, avec beaucoup de changements de voiles...  Thomas Ruyant, depuis qu'il a gagné la Transat Jacques Vabre, vise désormais le podium et en particulier sa plus haute marche : "On ne va pas se mentir, je veux finir, mais devant". Romain, lui, garde en tête les milles à accumuler et la nécessité de ramener le bateau de contrées particulièrement peu hospitalières en cas de soucis. Quant à Benjamin Ferré, s'il est concerné lui aussi par la course aux milles, il cherche à ne pas trop y penser, participant à toutes les courses du circuit Imoca d'ici le départ du Vendée Globe. Nos trois invités concluent cet échange par un point sur l'évolution de leurs projets : un bateau neuf - plan Koch-Finot/Conq - mis à l'eau début 2023 pour Thomas Ruyant ; des évolutions en cours de réflexion côté Romain Attanasio, qui continue la prise en main de l'ex Malizia ; de la fiabilisation avant toute chose et pas de foils pour l'ex SMA de Benjamin Ferré.

Jordan Tropf is a resident orthopedic surgeon at Walter Reid hospital in Maryland and one heck of a runner! He has an incredible set of running achievements in a relatively short period of time getting a personal best at Boston and winning Big Sur in 2 days.  He currently holds the world record for the fastest 3 marathons in 3 days. A short documentary by Believe in the Run tells the tale of that journey - 3 Marathons in 3 Days. We chat with Jordan about that epic achievement as well as his recent top 5 finish at Marathon des Sables and his journey to Ironman Kona this year.  Here is Jordan...

Caroline Wiebe, was inspired by Marathon Des Sables after reading a book by a previous finisher. “I just thought I could never do that,” Wiebe said. After she started running ultramarathons eight years ago, she met a former winner of the event at a presentation, who convinced her that she could finish the MDS. She wanted to compete at the Marathon des Sables to celebrate turning 50 but COVID threw that plan out the window.  She made it happen in 2022, finishing the 250k stage race in 55hrs.  We chatted with her about the challenges of training in Manitoba's harsh winters for such a hot, dry race in the desert, her emotions on the start line and her most difficult stage when she ran out of water.   Wiebe says some of her biggest challenges were keeping her feet in good shape (her years of nursing came in handy), staying hydrated, and being active with little rest.

A bit of an unusual episode this week as it was produced in two parts. I interviewed a friend of mine, Mat Poole, a couple of days before he departed for the Sahara desert to take part in the infamous Marathon des Sables.   At the start of this episode I share the notes I made during this call with Mat, where I asked him about his hopes and fears, logistics and expectations of the event.   Then in the interview itself we find out how it went, and how close to his expectations it came!   In a challenge like this there are always lessons to be learned and I was interested to try and extract them in a way that could be useful to you and I in more day to day areas of our lives.   Mat was raising money for the charity Walking With The Wounded who support mentally, socially and physically wounded veterans.   For a few more weeks following the publication of this episode the Just Giving page will be open should you care to donate: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/matp  

On parle souvent de la complicité père-fils mais la relation d'un père avec sa ou ses filles peut être très forte. Un lien unique qui donne parfois envie à ce duo de partager des expériences hors du commun. C'est le cas de Frédéric père de 4 filles, qui a tenté l'aventure du Marathon des Sables avec Cécile sa fille ainée de 16 ans. 250 kilomètres à parcourir en plein désert marocain et en autosuffisance. Eve Piorowicz, psychologue clinicienne, répond à vos questions sur les relations père/ fille.

The Marathon des Sables is billed as the toughest footrace on earth. If you are crazy enough to take on the Ironman challenge or a 100k ultra run then you may also have thought about entering this race. Trust me when I say that if you do, you will have a life-changing experience. I use the word ‘experience' for a reason. It's not just about 250km on foot in some of the harshest conditions you can experience. You will also meet amazing people, see places that are way off the tourist map, sleep and eat in conditions you never dreamt of, punish your feet like never before and enter a world where phone signals, noise pollution, and light pollution are non-existent.  Today's guest, Andy Slater, is a member of my SWAT Inner Circle and has just returned from experiencing the Sahara desert for himself. He completed the race and in this podcast, we will chat about his adventure including: Why he chose this challenge in the first place Resilience gained from having the race postponed 3 times and having to renew his enthusiasm each time How he adapted his triathlon training for the event Choosing kit and nutrition for the event The daily challenges of the race The real reason why people pull out How fit do you have to be to finish Andy doesn't really do social media, but here are some other cool links about the event: Official MdS website Andy's video montage with some race photos Join our SWAT/High Performance Human tribe now, with a happiness guarantee! Join SWAT/High Performance Human tribe here Purchase a copy of my High Performance Human e-book featuring more than 30 top tips on how to upgrade your life.

In conversation with Nattu Natraj, the first known person of Indian origin to do Badwater 135, a tough grueling ultra foot race. The Badwater marathon is 135 miles of hell in 140F temperatures. From Death Valley to Mt. Whitney. It gets so hot that shoes melt on asphalt. Therefore, the runners often seek solace on the white strips on the side of the road, where it is relatively less hot. To prep for Badwater, Nattu completed the Marathon Des Sables. Marathon des Sables, or MdS, (French for Marathon of the Sands, also known as Sahara Marathon)[1] is a six-day, 251 km (156 mi)[2] ultramarathon, which is approximately the distance of six regular marathons. This multi-day race is held every year in southern Morocco, in the Sahara Desert. It has been regarded as the toughest foot race on Earth. Additionally, Nattu has completed over 150 ultras including the Western States 100 and Hurt 100. Nattu and his wife Karen Bonnett Natraj ( Episode 92) are active members of the ultra community inspiring many to lead a healthy lifestyle. 0:00 Intro and background 6:22 Flashback to where it all started 11:23 Choosing the Badwater 135 as a goal 13:08 Doing the Marathon des Sables to qualify for Badwater 17:03 The beginners mistake at Marathon des sables 23:54 How to train for Marathon des sables 28:35 Prepping and Running the Badwater 135 33:12 How do grueling ultras change you 38:38 Motivations change with age 41:00 The western states 44:33 Finishing the most challenging Ultra, The Hurt 100 47:03 Food choices in ultra 52:30 The top 3 tips 54:24 What's next in the horizon 57:36 The Fun Q&A round
