Running 500 kilometres in a week, hallucinating about carnivorous zebras in Canada | Julie Sager

Ever thought about running a marathon? What about an ultramarathon (distances often above 300km)?Just running one of those events in a lifetime would be an epic achievement, right? Well, yes, of course. But what about running six of them inside 12 months, setting a world record in the process? What about hallucinating a bear eating you mid-stride while wheezing through early-stage pneumonia? What about running the equivalent altitude of two Mount Everests in 90 hours with little sleep and the feeling of razors under your feet, how appealing does that sound?To Cairns' Julie Sager, it's more than appealing. It's an addiction, and a reality.Enjoy the listen.
