Show Notes
This week's guest is the unstoppable Lucy Gossage who is a master in the art of squeezing every minute out of life. She works full time as a senior oncologist in the NHS, she is heavily involved in her Move Against Cancer charity, and she runs ultra-marathons in her spare time.
Lucy tells Kenton how she fell into triathlon after a drunken dare, and then became a pro-triathlete winning multiple races during her career. Since retiring from triathlon, she has entered her 'adventure era' which has seen her find a new love for ultra running. She won the Montane Winter Spine Race last year and set a FKT (Fastest Known Time) on the South West Coast Path in September.
Lucy is hugely passionate about the charity that she helped to set up, Move Against Cancer, and explains to Kenton why it means so much to her.
Lucy admits that some of the things she does are 'a bit bonkers' and we think you're going to love hearing about them.
