The Transcendence 100 - With Alex Quinn #138
Listen now
Description
Last year Alex Quinn created his very own Transcendence run and completed his 100 km while running laps around Kings Square in downtown Saint John. This year Alex has struck gold again but instead of 100 km, it was 100 miles, an incredible achievement, way to go Alex. Why did Alex do such an incredible feat one might ask? Well, because Alex wanted to raise money to help save a life, suicide prevention. Never alone for any of his roughly 400 laps, Alex recalls how his event went, his training, his family support, and all the events he has completed leading up to this one. His coach and all the local support plus many trail runners and runners alike were there to cheer Alex on. A very inspirational and motivating story that you will not want to miss.
