Sarah Perry UK Backyard Ultra Champ 🏆 - Young Hearts Run Free Podcast - Season 12 Eps 6

Sarah Perry makes her 2nd appearance on the podcast and we’ve plenty to catch up on

Although Sarah feels most comfortable on hills and fells, she excelled at the Backyard Ultra during October’s UK Team Championships.

Sarah details her outstanding performance, starting from the beginning of the race alongside 14 teammates and concluding 59 hours later to secure victory. Her exceptional effort not only earned her the title of Team UK champion but also a spot in the Big Dog’s Backyard Ultra Individual World Championships in 2025. Sarah will be heading to Tennessee for this prestigious event. In our chat, she outlines her strategy, hints at some personal tactics, and describes how her resilience was pushed to unprecedented levels. Could she have gone on longer though? We find that out from the horse’s mouth.

We also look back at some of her other 2024 adventures, focussing on a formidable personal challenge of setting a FKT on the South West Coastal Path. A staggering 630 miles journey! Just short of a fortnight’s worth of running from Poole in Dorset to Minehead in Somerset. It’s not flat either with an elevation amounting to 4 times the height of Mount Everest.

Not one to shirk at challenges thathttps://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=6dxqdyZdSUeiAvCf7-EFkE4edRV4uY9Ph0p68YF2oY9UNVFCNTNaNlMyMkVDREtKSFFWVFIwVUpKRi4u&route=shorturlhttps://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=6dxqdyZdSUeiAvCf7-EFkE4edRV4uY9Ph0p68YF2oY9UNVFCNTNaNlMyMkVDREtKSFFWVFIwVUpKRi4u&route=shorturlhttps://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=6dxqdyZdSUeiAvCf7-EFkE4edRV4uY9Ph0p68YF2oY9UNVFCNTNaNlMyMkVDREtKSFFWVFIwVUpKRi4u&route=shorturl human capability Sarah is in fine form as she tee’s up 2025 with some juicy hints!
