In this episode, I share my honest perspective on how to deal with tough, relentless runs, especially those you dread or find particularly challenging. Broadcasting from Vejer de la Frontera during my family holiday, I dive into what it's like running in extreme elevation, and the mental battles that come with it. I talk about the power of gratitude, shifting your mindset from negativity to positivity, and embracing the gift of movement even when every step feels exhausting. Whether you're facing a grueling race, intense training, or just a tough day, I hope my experiences help you find motivation. Remember: focusing on what you’re grateful for can transform even the hardest challenges into moments of growth.

On Day 1,912, Kevin reflects on hitting the 15,000km milestone of his consecutive daily running streak. From London to the middle of the Pacific, the distance covered is vast, yet it only represents a third of the final 40,075km goal. Kevin discusses why perspective is the most important tool in a 16.5-year mission to save children's lives and raise £1M.

Today marks a monumental moment in my running journey. I've hit 15,000 kilometres of consecutive daily running! In this episode, I share what it feels like to achieve such a huge distance, reflect on the journey of over five years, and put into perspective just how far 15,000km really is. From the equivalent of running from London to central Australia or even to New York and back it's truly mind-blowing! I also talk about the privilege and gratitude I feel for being able to keep this running streak alive, the lessons I've learnt along the way, and how I'm celebrating this milestone (with a little tease for tomorrow's episode). Plus, I revisit my mission: raising money to save children's lives by vlogging a barefoot lap of the world. Thank you for following and supporting this journey!

Whether you’re a parent or simply passionate about running, this episode touches on family, motivation, and the value of shared experiences. Plus, I remind everyone about my ongoing mission to save children’s lives through my ultimate barefoot ultra marathon fundraiser.

In today's episode, I open up about my evolving relationship with mountain trail running and the surprising lessons I've learnt along the way. As someone who's clocked up 1,908 consecutive days of daily running mostly on flat, predictable roads, trail running used to be well out of my comfort zone. But a family holiday in Vejer de la Frontera, Spain, forced me to embrace steep hills, technical trails, and breathtaking scenery.

I dive into how shifting my focus from pace and distance to the pure enjoyment of the landscape has completely changed my outlook. From battling tough elevation to running alongside my son, this episode is all about embracing new challenges, enjoying the journey, and why you might want to try stepping off the tarmac and onto the trail yourself. Plus, I share how this adventure ties into my fundraising mission to save children’s lives one barefoot mile at a time.

I take you on a run through the stunning whitewashed streets of southern Spain, tackling 240 metres of brutal elevation over just 7.2 kilometres – the most I’ve ever done at this distance. I share what it’s really like to run on these relentless hills, how it compares to my recent marathons, and the unique challenges of running off-road in such beautiful but demanding terrain. With my son Leo joining for pre-season football training and breathtaking scenery all round, it’s an honest look at how tough extreme elevation running can be – and why preparation is key if you’re thinking of taking it on.

I also explain why this journey is about more than running: it’s part of my mission to save children’s lives, running ultra marathons and vlogging barefoot every single day around the world to raise awareness and funds.
