This week we are joined by man of many talents Daniel Bye. One of those talents is even running related and was in full display just a few weeks ago when he competed in the infamous Montane Spine Challenger Race.

We get the lowdown on how that 108 mile jaunt turned out but not after finding out heaps more about Daniel and his long term love affair with running.

Daniel’s day job is to ‘write, direct and perform’ plays and pieces, his running passion and that day job collided in his (and his pals) touring show ‘These Hills are Ours’. Turns out his pal, Boff Whaley of Chumbawamba fame, was a no bad fell runner too.

Our main topic of conversation soon returns to ultra-running, Daniel discovered ultras in 2016 when he took part in the Lakeland Trails 55k. The fact he now considers that to be ‘quite a short race’ tells you how far he’s come since.

We get a sneaky glimmer at his triumphant Bob Graham Round, his day of days.  But filling us all in and whetting our own appetite for an outing on the Pennine Way soon dominates the YHRF airwaves.

With tips, tricks and motivation abound your expectations will be matched by the excellent and charismatic Daniel Bye, a born storyteller.
