This week we have a real treat, as comedian, author, runner, and legend Paul Tonkinson joins us to discuss his recent completion of the Marathon des Sables, which involves running 160 miles in a desert.
We discuss:
-Why Paul wanted to run this race in the first place
-What he got out of taking part in such an extreme event
-How it compared to previous marathons he has run
-The way people’s behaviour changes in an extreme and unusual environment
-What it is like hanging out with mostly men (in a desert)
-How the experience will shape his second book
-His relationship with Michael McIntyre
And loads more!
This is a very fun and funny episode that I think you will all love.
