Australian Backyard Ultra Record Holder Phil Gore (What it takes to run 600km)

When we hit our limits, that's when we really find out who we are. I’m super intrigued by what it takes to push yourself and the insights you gain along the way. This throwback episode features ultra runner Phil Gore, who just became the World Backyard Ultra Champion (a title that has been beaten since then).He completed a mind-blowing 102 laps of 6.7 km each, running for 102 hours straight without stopping. Since then, Phil has gone on to compete overseas in the Backyard Ultra World Championships and recently helped Australia snag second place in the World Backyard Ultra Team Championships. In this episode, we dive into the world of Backyard Ultras and unpack what it's like to run for days on end without a break.
