Also available to view on YouTube https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKw1-hbRSfGA7IjvRawczTJjMM4DuQFiK&si=4tITCL6Dg2l6b0ieIn this uplifting episode, we sit down with Ron Crowhurst and Steve Bradley— two remarkable runners from Whangārei whose story embodies courage, community, and connection.Ron’s journey is one of transformation — from losing weight and achieving outstanding marathon times in his younger years to becoming a driving force in Whangārei’s parkrun community and a dedicated guide with Achilles New Zealand.Steve, who is vision-impaired, has achieved incredible things and now walks and sometimes runs side-by-side with Ron as his guide. Together, they’ve built a partnership built on trust, humour, and shared determination.We talk about the challenges and rewards as a guide-athlete team, their shared experiences with Achilles New Zealand, and their recent adventure in Rarotonga, where a 31km walk tested both their resilience and friendship.It’s a story about believing in each other, pushing beyond limits, and discovering that the most meaningful victories aren’t always about the stopwatch — they’re about the journey, the people beside you, and the community that cheers you on.Get in contact and follow us - Send in your questions, show suggestions and comments (good or bad) to:Facebook https://www.facebook.com/share/17EN4yrAqp/?mibextid=wwXIfrInstagram https://www.instagram.com/motmpod?igsh=MW8yamF4cHBkZWpxZg%3D%3D&utm_source=qremail [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
