Bermuda Triangle Half Marathon: Running Adventures featuring Deena Kastor #182


Listen Later

In this episode, join me as we travel from the UK to the Bermuda Triangle Half Marathon Challenge, featuring an exclusive interview with the respected American marathoner, Deena Kastor. With an illustrious career marked by American marathon records and an Olympic bronze medal, Deena offers her invaluable insights and experiences straight from Bermuda.


I share my own journey tackling the mile, 10k, and half marathon courses after overcoming a challenging three-month injury. Along the way, I indulge in local delicacies such as the iconic post-race Dark 'N' Stormy cocktail and delectable fish sandwiches.


The race series boasts impressive event records, including Grete Waitz's '82 triumph with a time of 31:41 on the old course, and Eilish McColgan's sprint in 2020, clocking in at 33:28 on the new route.


During the episode, I catch up with Dennis Mbelenzi, the men’s marathon record holder, as he takes on the full marathon challenge and successfully defends his title. Throughout our conversations, I strive to capture the essence of Bermuda amidst lively discussions in taxis, on boats, and amidst the island's awe-inspiring scenery.


Please be advised that the sound quality may vary due to the natural surroundings.


I highly recommend participating in the race series for an unforgettable experience in 2025. As a special offer, you can receive a 10% discount on entry to the CHUBB Bermuda Triangle Challenge with code 2025Marcus10off. Don't miss out – registration is now open from this link
