Chris started running ultras at 50 years old, 14 years ago. He’s run UTMB and since 2023 he’s done the full Spine, Challenger North and Challenger South. We talk about his background in mountaineering and his approach to running and training as he prepares to run a Bob Graham Round. As an older runner, it’s very inspiring to listen his positivity and plans going forward. Thanks for tuning in!
