Colin Renton The Wine Runner - Young Hearts Run Free Podcast - Season 8 Eps 5

Welcome to the Young Hearts Drink Wine Podcast. It’s a change of pace this week as we indulge in combining a few of our fav things. Running & Vino. After a thorough weekly round up in our intro we are joined by runner, author and wine connoisseur Colin Renton for a continental tour that inspired the release of his first ever book, The Wine Runner: My Year of Hard Yards and Vineyards. It’s part running journal, part travelogue mixed in the essential component….sampling all sorts of local wine. Colin leads us through what motivated him to take up running and then gives us the lowdown on how he researched races before embarking on his quest that finished with a first ever marathon distance being covered in Austria.
