Running and Life Episode 7 May 2010
For runners everywhere
We're back - and boy do we have a special podcast for you this month!
In a slightly longer than usual podcast we have an exclusive insight into what it takes to run ten marathons in ten consecutive days.
The Brathay Ten-in-Ten took place earlier this month and the youngest female runner, Naomi Prasad, kept an audio diary just for this podcast. She talks about the highs of taking part in such an exclusive event as well as having to deal with some major lows over the ten days.
You can still donate to Naomi's fundraising here: http://www.justgiving.com/naomiruns10in10/
Or you can give directly to the Brathay charity here: www.brathaywindermeremarathon.org.uk/brathay-10-in-10.aspx
Also in this podcast we catch up with Barry the Baton as it makes its way around the coast of Britain - and yes, they still urgently need volunteers for this fab challenge, especially in the more remote parts of the country. Contact them here: www.coastersgb.co.uk
