Malaria Nearly Killed Me, But Running Saved My Life | Prav Patel

The Running Channel Meets is where we talk to real runners with incredible stories. Each episode we speak with people who inspire us to run, and give our guests an opportunity to tell their stories, often for the first time.

Doctors told Prav that running probably saved his life as his running fitness was crucial to his survival. In a two-month hospital stay at North Manchester General Hospital in 2023, Prav Patel overcame a bout of malaria that was three times over the severe infection rate, a rare disease called Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) and COVID. Less than six months after being discharged, Prav was taking on a host of gruelling running challenges to raise money in aid of the hospital that saved his life.

The Running Channel Meets was born from The Running Channel podcast. Hosted by Sarah Hartley (amateur runner) and Andy Baddeley (former pro runner) alongside Rick Kelsey (recovering runner), the TRC Podcast is friendly, jargon-free, and the perfect accompaniment to your runs.
