Part two of our Montane Spine Race double feature - Chris and Jason are joined by Christopher Cowley, a highly accomplished ultra runner who made his Spine debut at this year's edition of the iconic race across the Pennine Way. With wins at the Hardmoors 160 and 200, Christopher came into the 2022 Spine Race with as much experience as you could possibly hope to have short of an actual completion or living on the Pennine Way itself. This episode is full of insights from a first-time finisher of the notorious 268-mile Winter gauntlet of a race. Christopher talks training, nutrition, what he'd do differently next time, advice for potential entrants, and the surprising amount of due diligence that went into that seemingly barbaric finish.Less pressingly, the trio debate the merits of the different varieties of chocolate buttons, and the Christophers labour a toothpaste analogy...To get in touch, email: [email protected]. Photograph courtesy of the Spine Race
