Description
Jenni is joined by Kris King, the Expedition Leader and owner of 'Beyond The Ultimate,' a company renowned for organising an extraordinary series of self-sufficient, multi-day ultramarathons set in some of the world’s most challenging and breathtaking environments. Participants in Beyond The Ultimate events often fall into one or more of these categories: 'Running Purists,' 'Tough Guys/Women,' 'Soul Searchers,' and 'Story Tellers.' These adventurers are drawn to the experience because it offers a journey that profoundly expands both mind and spirit, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Guided by the philosophy that life should be filled with experiences, not possessions, Kris and his team have designed these multi-day trail running adventures to offer participants a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. So, if you’re dreaming of tackling a Desert Ultra in the Namib Desert, a Jungle Ultra in the Amazon Rainforest, an Ice Ultra in Swedish Lapland, or perhaps a Mountain Ultra in the Tian Shan Mountains, this episode of RunPod could be just for you.
