About this episode
On this week's episode of Cool Conversations, Kenton speaks to award winning journalist and champion Obstacle Course Racer, Gwendolyn Bounds.
Wendy, as she is known, took up Obstacle Course Racing at 45 years old and has built her fitness to such an extent that she now competes for podium places in Spartan races around the world. But this hasn't always been the case. Wendy discovered Spartan when she realised that she was sitting in contented inertia - in a high-pressure, yet successful career, with a busy personal life and no time for anything else. However, she decided to make time and she started building the physical foundation that now underpins everything she does. And she's never looked back.
Wendy is the author of two books: Little Chapel on the River and Not Too Late
Reading: The Formula by Joshua Robinson and Jonathan Clegg
Listening to: Eric Church, a country music artist, and Peter Attia on a Bone Health Podcast
