The King of Chemo - Iain Liam Ward

Each week on RunPod Jenni meets someone remarkable, inspiring, and fascinating - and this episode is no exception.

Joining us in the studio wearing his signature crown is Iain Liam Ward, better known as The King of Chemo.

Diagnosed with brain cancer in 2019, Iain made a bold decision: instead of slowing down, he launched a mission to break the world record for the most money ever raised for charity through running.

Since then, he’s completed marathon after marathon-often while undergoing treatment-proving that cancer might change your life, but it doesn’t have to stop it.

Iain’s story is one of defiance, purpose, and unbelievable grit. With raw honesty, humour, and a crown firmly on his head, he’s rewriting what it means to live with terminal illness - and running every step of the way for a cause bigger than himself.

If you’re looking for motivation, hope, and a reminder that life begins where comfort ends - this episode will stay with you long after the final mile
