On this Trail Running Podcast, James sits down with Aaron Young to unpack a remarkable personal transformation - from heavy drinking and mental health struggles to one of Australia’s best backyard ultra runners and 200-mile-plus competitors.

We delve into his Cocodona 250 effort, balancing 3:00 a.m. training with a carpentry apprenticeship, and why going the distance is about more than just distance - it's about discipline, growth, and staying true to your word.
