Many Happy Miles: Barkley Marathons finisher John Kelly
Another Mother Runner - Podcast tekijän mukaan Another Mother Runner
On today’s episode of Many Happy Miles we’re venturing into the woods. Or, rather, we are bringing on someone who spends a lot of time in the woods as an ultra-runner–and a very accomplished one, at that. Our guest? John Kelly, a dad of four, and one of just three finishers of the grueling Barkley Marathons–a 120+ mile, 3-day race in the mountains of Tennessee. Dimity and Sarah WF pepper John with questions about his recent Barkley finish, with topics including: How his childhood wanderings lead him to his passion for the trails; The weirdest things that’ve happened to him in the woods; How fatherhood has prepped him for the rigors of ultrarunning and; His unique strategy for napping on the run, and more! Learn more about the Barkley Marathons phenomenon (AKA “the race that eats its young") by watching this documentary. Follow John on Instagram. When you shop our sponsors, you help AMR.
