This week, we plummeted to new depths and somehow, Glory Holes ended up in the show. Don't ask. We move swiftly on (with some emotional scarring) to the real meat of the episode: fuelling your ultra without, breaking hearts, not wind, and how Gary’s Garmin cost him precious minutes.

We also crown the worst checkpoint food of all time. Plus, Gary dishes out his Swaledale Marathon tales.

Joe Barrs recently, one of the first-ever finishers of the grueling 293-mile Montane Arctic Spine Race, a brutal ultramarathon across Sweden’s Kungsleden Trail, where temperatures can plummet to -40°C and competitors haul their supplies on sleds.

A seasoned adventurer and former Royal Marines Commando, Joe was drawn to the race by the camaraderie of the Spine Race community. He completed the course in eight days, 15 hours, and 19 minutes, tying for second place with fellow racer Ulf Nore. His background includes winter ultramarathons, Alpine skiing, and mountaineering, so he’s no stranger to extreme endurance!
