The Runner by Markus Torgeby - June 2021

Markus Torgeby was just 20 years old when he headed off into the remote Swedish forest to live as a recluse and dedicate himself to his one true passion: running.

In his international bestseller - and our book of the month -  The Runner, Markus shares what four years living in a forest taught him about running and about life.

We asked Markus about his decision to live a solitary lifestyle, how he survived extreme cold in nature, and what we can all do to find more focus and mindfulness in our day.

Also in this episode, hosts Niall and Katharine update on their "naked" no-tech run challenge, and discuss the merits of Strava tracking versus off-the-grid runs.
