John Kelly speaks to the Young Hearts Run Free Podcast - Season 8 Eps 2

Right guys, we’re not even joking, this week we’re joined by John Kelly.


That doesn’t stop us having our usual weekly round-up though, even ultra-running royalty doesn’t stop that!

John then dials in from Tennessee and we give him the full Young Hearts Run Free going over.

John treats us to an hour of chat as we delve into his running story, talk about his time in the UK covering all sorts of running and non-running topics. Of course it’s Barkley Marathons that fills most of our airtime, and why the hell not?

Frozen Head State Park is John’s local hood, the trails a familiar place. We get never heard insight from the legendary two-time Barkley Marathons finisher. We cover the enigmatic Lazarus Lake, interloopal fuelling/sleeping, navigation, weather, playing tour guide, race tactics, lessons learned and find out about John’s ‘disaster prevention mode’ in action.

John is way to gracious with his time, we seize the opportunity to unearth a multitude of golden nuggets, the chance to pick his brain and listen to his wisdom was an absolute treat. Turns out he’s a heck of a guy too, the Irn Bru swigging Tunnock teacake munchin’ dude even promises a return appearance, we’ll hold him to that!

Your boys are striking gold at the mo and boy will we keep prospecting. Enjoy y’all.

Give John a follow on his socials for lots of musings and entertainment INSTAGRAM and TWITTER
