Show Notes
In this episode of Trail and Error we talk to endurance runner and coach Chris Kelly. A former footballer, hip surgery in 2016 forced Chris to look at sport in a new way and thankfully he discovered he was a runner! We talk about his running, injuries and rehab, 1st place on the GUCR and his epic 24 hour/169 mile feat as well as his sub 21 hour finish Arc of Attrition. Despite his injuries and surgeries Chris is one of the most positive runners in the sport and a true gent. Softly spoken and humble, it was a pleasure to chat with him. Join us as we spend an hour diving into his experiences. You can find more from Chris here: @chrisk_runs and @rts.coaching Thanks again to all of you for listening.
