Te Araroa Special, Episode 2


Listen Later

The 2nd report from the trail is here 

Paul's epic 50 day+ journey continues. It will last 50 days. He is tackling the FKT on Te Araroa in New Zealand. A 3,000km journey across the entire country, water crosses, sea crossings and everything in between. To find out more about the journey visit the website here

In this 2nd episode James sent Paul a few questions to get answers to and Paul responds "live" from the trail. But this time we have some listener questions. As before, you will hear birdsong, cars passing and Paul's footsteps as he runs and chats with us. And some breathless hill work!

You will get a sense of the why, the journey so far, the joy, the highs, the lows and just how he keeps fed and clean on the trail. His trusty companions, Alice and Mya, are there supporting and their role is key. Hear more about that in the pod.

We plan to record these around weekly whilst Paul is on the trail. You can follow in near real-time and get a feel for the journey Paul is on. And you can also submit questions to James (see below) to ask Paul in future episodes. 

Paul is thriving off of the interaction and contact while out there on the 10-14 hour days. Drop him a message and let him know how you are following and spread the love. 

If you liked the pod give us a 5* review below and drop us a line. The best feedback is hearing from you. Follow us on socials @pyllonultra.
