S6 E 4: Rookie Mistakes with Guest Brad

Today’s episode is extra special! I’m joined by the fabulous Brad ! from the UK, he is not only an amazing friend but also my Atacama Crossing tentmate and adventure buddy across 250 unforgettable kilometres. Brad takes us through the highs, lows, bad choices, and belly laughs of being a first-time racer in one of the toughest desert ultras on the planet. From the rookie struggles to the unexpected life lessons, we relive the good, the bad, and the beautifully ugly moments we shared under the burning Atacama sun. But more than the funny stories, what will stay with you is Brad’s courage — the way she went all in for one of her dream races, signed up, showed up, and discovered so much more than she ever expected. If you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to chase your dreams… this is your sign to stop waiting. Go for it. Say yes. Because out there, beyond the fear and the doubts, you’ll find a version of yourself you didn’t even know was waiting. And maybe, just maybe, that’s what happiness really is , finding what you weren’t even looking for.   Remeber to keep doing whatever makes YOU ultra happy.  Follow @taniaruns_theworld
