Episode #141 George Foster Mountain Running and a Sublime Bob Graham Round

1 hour 2 minutes

George is very talented Mountain Runner who focuses on shorter sharper mountain races, however last October during the nations lock down he took on the Bob Graham round and beat Billy Bland's time which had previously stood for 36 years prior to Killian Jornet breaking it.

At 13hrs 44min it hit the running community with a wave of amazement and truly out George on the radar, George has raced some of the most iconic races in the world such as the Sierre Zinal and Pike's Peak so as George had done quite a few interviews on his Bob Graham round I tried to unpack the journey that George had taken which has resulted in his latets performace.

Hope you enjoy, and why not pick up a copy of Moire O'Sullivan's latest book about the calling of the Mountains....
