🎙️ Harry Taroni, from Beers in the Scrapyard to Backyard Ultra's

In this inspiring episode, Alan sits down with Harry Taroni, owner of Greendale Performance Gym, to explore his remarkable transformation from late‑starter in fitness to Ironman competitor and event organiser. Harry opens up about his journey from being overweight to becoming a competitive amateur boxer, then pushing his limits through endurance racing. He shares details of his upcoming Backyard Ultra at Manor Farm on 25 September, a £95 event featuring a unique twist — a chain medal for every DNF and special pre‑race packages for participants. The conversation dives into the mindset behind endurance sport, the creativity of event design, and the balance between training, promotion, and storytelling in the OCR and endurance community. A candid, motivational chat about resilience, reinvention, and the drive to keep moving forward — whether you're chasing finish lines or creating them.
