  • Lowri Morgan - Presenter, Adventurer & Ultra Marathon Runner #128
    Jun 22 2025

    Lowri Morgan is a remarkable Welsh television presenter, adventurer, and runner. She’s one of the very few people to have completed both the grueling 350 mile 6633 Ultra in the Arctic and the Amazon Jungle Ultra Marathon.

    Beyond her athletic feats, she’s a BAFTA winning broadcaster who’s presented shows like Scrum V on the BBC and Uned 5 on S4C. She’s also dived to the wreck of the Titanic and produced award-winning documentaries about her adventures.

    What’s even more inspiring is that she overcame serious injuries, only to go on and conquer some of the world’s toughest races.

    Our coaches share some tips on how to fuel an Ultra Marathon.

  • Glory Holes, Fuelling Your Ultra & The Worst Trail Food EVER #127
    Jun 19 2025

    This week, we plummeted to new depths and somehow, Glory Holes ended up in the show. Don't ask. We move swiftly on (with some emotional scarring) to the real meat of the episode: fuelling your ultra without, breaking hearts, not wind, and how Gary’s Garmin cost him precious minutes.

    We also crown the worst checkpoint food of all time. Plus, Gary dishes out his Swaledale Marathon tales.

  • Joe Barrs - Arctic Spine Race #126
    Jun 15 2025

    Joe Barrs recently, one of the first-ever finishers of the grueling 293-mile Montane Arctic Spine Race, a brutal ultramarathon across Sweden’s Kungsleden Trail, where temperatures can plummet to -40°C and competitors haul their supplies on sleds.

    A seasoned adventurer and a reservist with the Royal Marines Commandos, Joe was drawn to the race by the camaraderie of the Spine Race community. He completed the course in eight days, 15 hours, and 19 minutes, tying for second place with fellow racer Ulf Nore. His background includes winter ultramarathons, Alpine skiing, and mountaineering, so he’s no stranger to extreme endurance.
