Gareth De La Torre shares a brutally honest story of what happened after a head injury led to epilepsy, severe depression, and a point where life felt unbearable. In this episode, we talk about that darkness, the reality of reaching a crisis point, and what it took to start finding a way back.For Gareth, that way back began outdoors. From wild camping to rucking, being outside gave him something solid to hold onto when everything else felt unstable. We talk about how the outdoors has improved his mental health, why challenge can become part of healing, and what recovery can look like when it’s not neat, linear, or quick. A powerful conversation about survival, honesty, and rebuilding a life one step at a time.

Lee Nicholson shares a story that puts running into perspective: while out on a run, he ended up saving someone’s life. It’s a moment that sparked a bigger conversation about the culture around running—how easily it can become a selfish pursuit, and why that mindset can come at a cost.In this episode, we talk about awareness, responsibility, and why runners need to do a better job of looking beyond their own splits, sessions, and goals. Lee makes the case that running might often be a solo endeavour, but it shouldn’t make us less switched on to the people around us. A powerful conversation about safety, perspective, and making the miles better—for ourselves and for everyone else.

Ed Burnham doesn’t do things by halves. In this episode, we talk about his jump from running a marathon straight into WildHorse 200—a leap most people wouldn’t even consider—and what that says about the way he approaches challenge, discomfort, and the unknown.We also get into one of the more ridiculous endurance efforts you’ll hear about: holding a world record for pushing a lawnmower for 24 hours around a rugby pitch. It’s a conversation about ultras, big decisions, and the kind of mindset that makes someone look at an absurd idea and think, yeah, let’s give that a go. Honest, funny, and full of the energy that comes with people who are wired to test themselves.
