Happiest when in Motion: The Rise of Brooke Thomas

Peak2Soon

About this episode

Brooke Thomas is a star on the rise, and while she won't admit it she's one of the top trail runners in the world.

Recently, Brooke was the last woman standing at Arrowtown Backyard event, nearly placing her directly on the New Zealand team for the Satellite World Championships. 

That ends what has been a big year, which includes a fourth at UTA in her first showing, and being in the Top 40 women who finished this year's CCC at UTMB.

What's perhaps most incredible about all of this is that just over a decade ago, she was diagnosed with a heart condition and became the recipient of an inserted cardiac pacemaker, oh and I haven't even mentioned that she holds the women's record for the 3,000km Te Araroa Trail.

There's more to her, but you'll have to listen to this episode to find out!
