Running Man Jim
Manage episode 374024028 series 3491021
Jim Higham is a runner who came to running relatively late after spending time working abroad in Africa. By his own admission he's become a little addicted to it. He gets restless if he can’t get a tiny run in of at least 10k a day. Now, to normal people in a city, it's about a 20 minute car ride or a 30 minute bus journey, and around 6.2 miles too long a walk. He normally clocks up over 40 miles a week, gets through three pairs of running shoes a year, and an awful lot of vaseline… Stop! It’s for his nipples... Stop! That sounds way worse. He wrestles with his addiction all whilst maintaining a full-time job and family life. But here’s the irony. Impressive as his stats are, he’s not even the best runner in the family. His wife regularly competes and wins regional distance races, and I’m sure - to Jim’s annoyance - wins just a little too regularly. In this revealing episode we discover his passion for rhinos, distance running and his most epic experience yet: running across Kenya. Oh, and we didn’t even mention, he’s not a bad photographer either.

The title music is Tropicalia do Norte by El Equipo Del Norte. Also, in case it's not clear or there's any doubt about the division of labour, Tanya does nothing on the show (that cannot be emphasised enough).
