Today on RÚV English Radio: could you run all of Route One - in the fastest time ever achieved?

Ryan Keeping is no stranger to running, having made his way across his native Canada on two legs.

This Sunday though, he takes on Iceland's Ring Road (route one), which circles most of the country. And he's planning to run it faster than anyone ever has.

Darren caught up with Ryan just ahead of his epic journey. Follow it, and him, at https://www.instagram.com/ryan.keeping and https://www.youtube.com/@ryan.keeping
