Lunch with Pippa Hudson

Guest: Henry Cock

Henry Cock took up road running in October last year. Less than a year later, he's using his newfound passion to raise awareness about mental health. Henry is attempting to set a World Record for the most half marathons run in consecutive days. He's running 133 half marathons in 133 days. That's about 21km every day for 133 consecutive days.

Henry began his quest on 6 July from Kosi Bay, along South Africa's northeastern coastline. He'll run along the coastline to Alexander Bay on the Namibian border. 

The total distance is around 2800km and includes a combination of trail and road running through some of South Africa's most beautiful and rarest landscapes.
