Episode 550 - 2026 Delirious Series - Burnout, Toasties & Trail Grit: Bianca O’Neill’s Wild Ride to Feral and Beyond
In this first Delirious 2026 check-in, I catch up with the ever-entertaining Bianca O’Neill — ultra runner, full-time legend, and queen of keeping it real. After juggling her aged care prac, study dramas, and 3am runs (yes, really), Bianca admits it’s been a tough month — but she’s still smiling, learning, and laughing her way through it all.
We chat about the juggle of life, the guilt of not training enough, and the reality that sometimes, “tapering” just means shifting where your energy goes. Bianca also shares her secrets for blister-free feet (involving Squirrel Nut Butter and Creepers), her go-to ultra snacks (hello, ham and cheese toasties 🥪), and her plans for Feral 100 and Delirious 200.
It’s honest, hilarious, and full of wisdom for any runner balancing big goals with real life.
