Run the World — Steve Wolfe's Daily Mission to Circle the Globe


Listen Later

In this episode, we meet Steve Wolfe, a runner on an extraordinary mission to run the distance around the world — 40,075 kilometres — without taking a single day off. Steve opens up about the physical and mental challenges of his streak (now over 3,000 days), the motivation behind it, and how running has helped him through trauma, loss, and PTSD. From running laps of his garden with COVID to launching a local running group, Steve’s story is as inspiring as it is humbling.

We also discuss:

  • How he got started after a major health scare
  • His love-hate relationship with marathons
  • The role of community in his journey
  • Fundraising for Kent, Surrey & Sussex Air Ambulance
  • The one rule he’s never broken (except once…)
