47: Running for Legacy: Will’s Journey from Loss to World Majors; A Runners Journey

from Sunday Runday The Podcast · host Sunday Runday The Podcast

In this week’s episode we sit down with Will an inspiring runner whose journey began in the wake of personal loss and has grown into something extraordinary. From raising over $25,000 for MND through his first ultra, to qualifying for Boston with a blistering 2:47 at Canberra, Will’s story is one of resilience, family, and sheer determination. Now, he’s chasing history as the youngest Australian to run all seven World Marathon Majors in a single year. We talk about his beginnings, the emotional drive behind his challenges, and his first major of the year where we met at Tokyo Marathon.   This is more than a running story it’s about purpose, grit, and the power of chasing something bigger than yourself.
