Show Notes
Ep. 94 David Parrish DBR
What a pleasure to welcome back David to chat about winning the 2025 Dragons Back Race.
This brute of a race covers almost 240 miles of gnarly mountain terrains and to finish you must run the equivalent of sea level to the summit of Everest TWICE in 6 days.
What went well? What didn't?
There were navigation issues, a time penalty and changes to the route to contend with but ultimately an overall podium win.
