“Everyone Told Us to Quit”: The Brutal Truth Behind Running Across Australia & the UK

They ran across Australia. Then the UK. Over 4,000 miles, 120+ marathons, and more than $350,000 raised for cancer research.


Meet The Lambros - Stefan and Lachlan Lamble, the first brothers to run across Australia AND the UK. In this raw and inspiring episode, we unpack what drives two Melbourne brothers to attempt the world’s toughest endurance challenges.


From conquering the Nullarbor Desert to being hospitalised with a rare blood infection, this is a brutally honest story of brotherhood, mental resilience, and showing up when it matters most.


We discuss:

🏃‍♂️ 85 marathons across Australia & the mental toll it took

🇬🇧 How they completed 1,000 miles across the UK in 35 days

🧠 The mindset that got them through – not just the mileage

💥 Blood infections, fractured femurs, gastro – the reality behind the social media

🌎 Building the Lambros Army & raising $350K+ for cancer research

💡 Their advice for anyone going through tough times


An inspirational episode about purpose, brotherhood, and redefining your limits in honour of loved ones fighting cancer.
