Paul Willan, "The Accidental Runner".
Manage episode 397105238 series 2850634
In 2007, Paul Willan was a 26 year old overweight smoker when his boss encouraged him to join him in a daily lunchtime walk, which soon progressed into running. Once gasping for air at every lamppost, Paul is now a dedicated ultra runner, who trains 6 mornings a week.
Listen to hear how Paul:
- Overcame the initial challenges of going from walking to running.
- The moment when running stopped being a weight loss tool and started being an enjoyable hobby to him.
- Overtraining - recognising it, and coming back from it.
- Training for ultra marathons.
- Early morning running and motivation.
