When she’s not driving cattle trains or mustering on horseback Sarah Foster is out conquering the World of ultramarathon running. Her most recent conquest was the Delirious WEST 200 miler (350kms) in an astonishing time of 71 hours.

Sarah almost exclusively trains on a remote cattle station in far North Queensland and we chat about the challenges of fitting in 20-30 hours of training around the hard yakka of farm life.

We discuss the practicalities of living and training in an isolated environment and the impact on Sarah’s mental health. We also learn how to avoid feral pigs and dingoes and the best way to tackle a cattle grate.

The Wolfman also makes a cameo to review the HOKA Rocket X with Sean Tindale down at RUNNULLA.

Enjoy!
