S5 Eps 16 Young Hearts, Run Free - Cape Wrath Time with Rebecca Brennan - 10 June 2022
Episode 96 of the Young Hearts Run Free podcast is upon us. You’ll know by now we don’t like to disappoint. We’ve another smasher of a guest to tell an amazing tale for you.
We kick off with our wee round up of the week’s happenings, covering a whole heap of crap before catching up with this weeks headline act Rebecca Brennan.
Rebecca has just completed the arduous Cape Wrath Trail on Scotland’s rugged west coast. Not only did she complete it she completely FKT’d it. Listen in to hear her amazing, emotional, and inspiring story of what drove her to reach the very symbolic Cape Wrath Lighthouse.
Running has been a big part of Rebecca’s life for 20 plus years. A first ever marathon in NYC, a mere few months after 9/11, was meant to be a one and done experience…..we know how that story often unfolds, right?
We delve in to what lit Rebecca’s fire and saw her make the leap to ultra-marathon and discover her love of running in the hills and mountains. The freedom, friendship, and camaraderie she has found are all evident as she recounts some of her running highlights.
And what of the Cape Wrath Trail. This was not only a massive journey on two feet but also a massive journey emotionally, Rebecca was fuelled by honouring her late Mum, she certainly done her proud on all fronts. From the thorough route research, the assembling of a dream team support crew and the race kit we cover it all, it is a real blow by blow account of what turned out to be the most spectacular of efforts.
Fish Suppers, pizzas and powernaps. Now if that does not get you intrigued, we can’t think what will? Perhaps a glimpse at what Rebecca has planned in the future? No spoilers but it seems nothing is impossible!
Step on in and join us for a good time, it’s Cape Wrath Time.
