Ultra running legend, Malcolm Law joins the podcast to talk about all things trail and ultra running. Undoubtedly one of the most inspiring and storied ultra runners in the world, Malcolm is now turning his creative and somewhat devious mind to developing 'The Wild' - one of the hardest and most beautiful 100 mile ultras in the world. Malcolm also shares his experiences of running more mountain miles than most runners can even dream of, his perception of the trail and ultra world, and the quest to find his limits. Malcolm made an incredibly inspiring film about his 50 in 50 challenge.
