If you read my first blog post you'd see that I didn't run before 2016. So here is where my tracking began, and then of course as above my first ultramarathon was in August of 2016 at the age of 36. I have loved the pursuit of ultra trail running ever since. I started this bucket list in my head after my first couple of 100 milers, but have written it down since about 2019, which now exists here on my blog.
