To see what I am capable of in terms of endurance

What is your background and how did you get into your sport?
I played a lot of rugby up until I retired at an old age of 25. After that I didn’t do any sport for a couple of years. One day I was out for a run on the Harry Ell’s track and saw a poster for the Mount Oxford Odyssey & thought I’ll give that a crack so I did. After completing that I got the trail running bug and haven’t stopped since
