S4 Eps 19 Young Hearts, Run Free - Spine Challenged with Daniel Kershaw - 11 Feb 2022

We are cruising along in the home straight of Season 4 now, time to put the foot down? LET’S GO!

We’ve a smile on our pus for this week’s episode as we welcome along to the YHRF couch another brilliantly entertaining guest, Daniel Kershaw calls himself a ‘fun runner’, now we aren’t quite sure if you’ll agree with his definition of fun, you’ll need to listen in to find that one out!

Daniel joins us to (mostly) speak about his recent adventure as he took part in January’s Spine Challenger Race, that’s 108 miles of the Pennine Way, part of the Montane Spine Race. But we couldn’t let Daniel appear without uncovering a whole lot more!

Daniel has a quite extra-ordinary running history. His trajectory from beginning to run in 2009 to where he is now is quite something, it’s saw him participate in an eye-watering number of races. We find out what fuelled Daniel’s raging fire. ‘How many marathons have you done Daniel?’ WOW!!

Then we are treated to a quite wonderful account of Daniel’s Spine Challenger Race, it has highs and almighty lows and everything in between. Daniel articulates the whole experience in his own unique style, it was certainly a week in which he learned lots about the race AND about himself. It has quite the ending!

So if you’ve every wondered about hallucinations late in ultra-marathon’s being a thing, déjà vu biting your ass when you’re on the last dribble of your emotional and physical energy or indeed where the remainder of Bill Duff’s brick collection is waiting then you’re in for a right treat! We think there is a thing or two to learn for everyone in this fantastic episode.

So, let’s get on with the havering…..ENJOY!
