Crossing the Simpson Desert: 380km on Foot - #29

Blake Bourne had unfinished business in the Simpson Desert. First crack he pulled up short, cooked mentally and physically. So what’d he do? Jumped on a treadmill and ran 177km straight, then went back 2 years later and knocked over the full 380km across the desert. We get into the blisters, freezing nights, gastro, a watch that reset mid-run, even swimming creeks in the middle of nowhere. But also the head noise, why he went back, and what it feels like to finally get it done. Challenge Accepted is the podcast for people who do hard shit on purpose.
