#25 - Alex Staniforth: Bullying | Nepal Earthquake Survivor | Ultra Runner

Alex Staniforth is an ultra-endurance runner and the fastest person to run every mountain in England and Wales. He is also the founder of the charity Mind Over Mountains.


In this conversation, we talk about:


  • Alex's childhood of being bullied, having epilepsy and a stammer.

  • Being hit by the Nepal earthquake in 2015 at age 19.

  • Whether we are driven by ambition or dragged by insecurity.

  • The quiet decline in people's mental health in today’s social media age.

  • Summiting 446 mountains in England and Wales in under 45 days.
