Five Hours to Noon


Listen Later

Five Hours to Noon is a documentary-style podcast that tells the true story of one runner's fight against time, terrain, and himself at the Divide 200 ultramarathon in the Canadian Rockies.

The race: 320 kilometers across mountains, ridges, and valleys, with a hard cutoff at high noon on the final day.

The challenge: rain, grizzlies, sleep deprivation, wrong turns, and a body fighting Hashimoto's disease.

The question: can he make it to the finish line before the clock runs out?

Told in eight acts plus an epilogue, this series blends first-person narrative, sound design, and documentary detail to capture not just the miles, but the fragile decisions, missed turns, borrowed gear, and quiet acts of help that shape survival.

It's a story about endurance, failure, redemption—and the five hours that mean everything.

🎙️ Host: Paul Johnson 🎧 Produced by: Get Some 🎵 Music and Sound Design: Epidemic Sound
