Listen "The Dirt Vert Surfer: Jordan Nukunuku"
Episode Synopsis
Jordan Nukunuku suffered a heart break which kicked off his running journey, and it's been a journey of incredible ups and downs.The young Kiwi from Rotorua recently won The Guzzler Ultra, after the first placed finisher was handed a time penalty, but it's a win at Brisbane Trail Ultra 110 kilometre race in 2023, after suffering an ACL injury in the months prior that shows how tough Jordan truly is.A self described 'amateur dirt vert surfer' Jordan flashed onto the major scene with an impressive run at Tarawera 100 miler this year, only fuelling the fire in wanting to win his home major.Jordan also took part in for what is now considered the last Down Under 135, an incredible endurance event that attracts the toughest long distance runners in Australia.It's already a serious resume for the Spring Energy and Trainade Athlete, and I guarantee this won't be the last you hear of him.
