from Head Game · host Nova Podcasts

In this episode, meet the British roofer who ran the equivalent of 95 marathons across Australia in just 61 days. Jack Pitcher braved the harsh Australian outback, including the infamous Nullarbor, to set a new British record for running 4,320km from Perth to Sydney’s Bondi Beach. Jack reveals to Ant how he did it with almost no money and few resources, the many setbacks he suffered along the way, the mindset that helped him reach his goal, and how a packet of Tim Tams saved his life.
