Description

Hello and welcome back to TBR, today's guest is Damian Hall. Damian is a record-breaking ultramarathoner runner and author. He represented GB aged 40 and continues to record competitive results in the world's toughest races. 

This conversation was recorded not long after he took the win at the spine race, which is certainly up there when it comes to tough. It traces the Pennine way and this year runners were faced with freezing conditions. 

In this conversation, we talk through that experience, and hallucinations ultra runners grow accustomed to as well as touch on some of the subjects Damian has uncovered in his most recent book We Can't Run Away from this which explores how we can improve runnings footprint in our climate emergency.
