Ep 24 | I ran 4 ultramarathons in 4 days

This week’s podcast features the inspiring Carwyn Glyn, a determined athlete and devoted father from the small village of Ffostrasol in West Wales, now living in Carmarthenshire. Over the past 7-8 years, Carwyn has taken on countless challenges, from 10K races and Men’s Health Survival of the Fittest to half Ironmans, sprint triathlons, and trail runs. However, his most recent accomplishment is his most extraordinary yet – completing 4 ultra marathons in 4 days for an incredible cause, for his daughter, Mari.

Mari was born at just 31 weeks, facing critical health issues after a heartbreaking diagnosis. It was five long weeks before Carwyn and his wife could hold her for the first time, but after three months, they finally brought their daughter home. To show his gratitude to the medical teams who saved Mari’s life, Carwyn ran 110 miles, passing the three hospitals that played a role in her recovery.

In this episode, Carwyn opens up about his journey, the emotional and physical toll of these challenges, and the profound impact this experience has had on him and his family. His positivity and resilience are truly inspiring. Tune in to hear his story, Mari’s amazing recovery, and what’s next on Carwyn’s agenda. You won’t want to miss this powerful conversation!
