  • Ep 63: Heather Hawkins - Adventure, Resilience & Longevity Mindset
    At 41 - with two teenagers and a contentedly unadventurous life - Heather Hawkins made a doctor's appointment. Diagnosed with stage one ovarian cancer, within nine days she had surgery to remove an 18cm tumour, and a full hysterectomy. Instead of chemotherapy, she chose a non-invasive surveillance treatment. The experience reignited Heather's adventurous and invincible spirit. At 47 she pulled on an old pair of shorts and runners and struggled to the end of a 4km mothers' day fun run with her kids. Five years later she has 17 marathons and 3 ultra marathons under her belt, including the North Pole Marathon and the extraordinary World Marathon Challenge - a gruelling seven marathons in seven days on seven continents. She topped that off by trekking 1700km in the thin air of Nepal's Great Himalaya Trail. And she's only just getting started ... 'Heather's courage is immeasurable. She has unstoppable conviction and an energy that inspires and amazes me' - Robert de Castella - AO MBE, Australian Former World champion Marathon Runner In this interview Lisa digs deep beyond the glib facts of Heather's adventures to find out what makes this lady tick, how she managed within just 5 years to go from being totally sedentary to a full on extreme ultra runner, to run in all four corners of the world.

  • Ep 60: Ian Walker - Paraplegic Handbiker - Ultra distance Athlete

    Ian Walker was an avid Football fan , referee and coach but in early December 2006 his life took an unexpected turn. Until then he was running marathons and was a nationally ranked football (soccer), referee.

    On that Wednesday morning he got on his road cycle and went for a ride during which he cycled head first into the rear of a truck and trailer resulting in me suffering a spinal cord injury at T3/4 (mid thoracic) level and requiring a wheelchair for mobility.

    This was a huge body blow, being no longer able to use his legs. However life must and does go on and he soon realised that this was his new normal and it was better for me to get on with life.

    The issue for him was to replace my running with another activity.

    He discovered handcycling and fell in love with it as it enables him to continue with his love of long distance physical exertions.

    Since then he has successfully completed the TCS New York City Marathon and Buller Gorge Marathon twice each and the ASB Christchurch City Marathon once. He now lives his life to the following creed 'do not let what you cannot do stop you from doing what you can'. This is, he believes, a mindset that all can adopt as life is what you make it.

  • Charlie Engle: Extreme Endurance & Longevity Lessons from Running Across the Sahara

    Charlie Engles is definitely one of my all time great heroes. His life has not been without it's dramas and failures but he is undoubtedly one of the strongest human beings of our times in mind and body.

    He is one of the most accomplished ultramarathon runners in the world and author of the riveting memoir Running Man. Engle has a track record of winning or placing in many of the toughest endurance foot races across the globe. He has raced in jungles, summited high ranging mountains and volcanoes, and traversed large expanses of deserts through sand storms. Among his most notable races in the United States is the Badwater Ultramarathon which he has run 7 times placing usually in the top 5.

    Beginning in the 1990s into the early 2000s, Engle competed in the Eco-Challenge series put on by Mark Burnett (the creator of the wildly popular CBS television series, Survivor). The Eco-Challenge took Engle to Borneo, New Zealand, and Vietnam. The list of Engle's international races is long, but he is most well known for running across the Sahara Desert, from coast to coast, in 2007. Engle's historic and record setting journey was documented in the film Running the Sahara, narrated by Matt Damon. He was joined by two other runners: Ray Zahab of Canada and Kevin Lin of Taiwan. This transcontinental run through deep sand and politically unstable countries remains one of the premier accomplishments in the ultrarunning sport. The runners completed over 4,500 miles, averaging over two marathons per day, for 111 consecutive days.

    Engle's motivation to run and tackle adventure to such extreme lengths stems from his battle with addiction to drugs and alcohol. Sober since July 23, 1992, he has credited a large part of his sobriety to the purposeful devotion and emotional release he experiences while running.

  • Ep 57: Kate Sanderson shares her harrowing experience being burnt by a forest fire during an ultramrathon

    Kate Sanderson, is a rather, shy, introverted Australian girl, who loved nothing more than to run ultramarathons but one particular ultramarathon in the Kimberleys in Western Australia was to change her life forever.

    Kate shares her horrifying story of seeing a wall of fire coming towards her and a small group of other runners including the famous Turia Pitt as they ran through a gorge,

    Each runner tried a different way to escape the flames, two managed to get out unhurt, another two suffered burns to 20% of their bodies and Turia and Kate unfortunately got his the worse and were burnt over 60% of their bodies.

    Kate lost half a foot, the tendons on her hands melted as she tried to protect her face with her hands and her arms and legs were severely burnt. For 4 long hours they hung on for dear life while waiting for rescue. What ensued was another 6 months of intense rehab, skin grafts and operations and years of recovery.

    Now 7 years on Kate is back doing what she loves, doing ultras all over the world even conquering the infamous Marathon des Sables a 240km race across the Moroccan Sahara last year and the Grand to Grand in the USA and that despite not being able to regulate her temperature properly.

    Next up is a 316km ultra in New Zealand the Alps 2 Ocean.

    In this incredibly rare interview Kate shares her very private journey and I had the privilege to interview this incredibly strong woman.

  • Ep 55: Lisa Mammana - from unfit mum of 3 to super fit desert runner

    Lisa Mammana is an Australian born mother of three. Her husband is in the Australian Air Force which means long periods of time with the kids on her own, add to that being a full time chef and having to shift towns and even countries regularly for her husbands work and you can imagine how tough it is to fit in your own fitness training and how hard it is to focus on your own sporting ambitions but somehow Lisa found the time to start. It wasn't all smooth sailing but slowly Lisa increased the distances she was able to do firstly just to the letterbox and back and after six months of steady work to do her first 10k but that was just beginning of her story.

    She went on to achieve half marathons, marathons, ultramarathons and even a multi day stage race across the Australian Simpson Desert in 45 degree heat.

    Hear her inspiring story.

  • Ep 54: Rose Byass - Ultramarathon runner, Ultra triathlete tells her inspiring story

    Rose Byass suffered a mental breakdown and ended up hospitalised and at rock bottom but inside she had a strong will to survive and to get back up again, a strong desire to climb back out of the morass and after over a decade in the army and having faced many of lifes typical problems she the resilience to get back up.

    A big part of her recovery journey was when she took up running. At first just short distances but within a very short period of time she started tackling one ultramarathon after the other. Getting mentally stronger alongside getting physically stronger and fitter.

    She is a strong advocate for the power of sport to help people overcome depression and mental health issues.

    Her next challenge is to compete in Florida in the Triple Ironman.

    We would also like to thank the sponsors of this show.
