Episode 529 - 2026 Delirious Series - Intro - Back for More: Ben Pyman’s Quiet Return to Delirious W.E.S.T

Get Ready For: A grounded, refreshingly real chat with 2024 Delirious W.E.S.T finisher Ben Pyman—who’s coming back in 2026 not to redeem a result, but to experience the race better. From lessons learned to training tweaks, Ben shares how he’s balancing life, recovery, and the decision to do it all again. Why You’ll Love This Episode: 🏁 A finisher’s perspective: Ben opens up about his 2024 race—what worked, what didn’t, and why he wants to return stronger, mentally and physically. 🧠 The shift from finish to flow: 2026 isn’t about proving anything—it’s about being more present, more prepared, and more in control. 👟 Training, simplified: How Ben fits in running with work and family life—focusing on what matters most (and letting go of the fluff). 🥾 Post-race recovery truths: Hear how his body handled the 200-miler, what surprised him about recovery, and how it’s shaped his approach. 💡 Wisdom for everyday runners: Ben’s not chasing podiums—he’s chasing peace, progress, and a smoother race next time. Follow Ben’s Journey: Each month, we’ll check in with Ben as he trains, reflects, and quietly prepares for round two on WA’s wild coast—and this time, he’s hoping to enjoy more of the ride.
