About this episode
Some people run one marathon in their lifetime. Some run one a year. Some energetic types might even run a marathon a month. But rare is the runner who runs a marathon every day for a year. Yet that is exactly what James Cooper has done. It helps that he’s fuelled by the motivation to raise money for Samaritans, following the death by suicide of his uncle. Listen to him speak about training, recovery, nutrition and how anyone can achieve incredible things with the right mindset.
