Break the Bias Kate Jayden

Break the Bias Kate Jayden

In the fifth episode of our special Break the Bias series, I chat to Kate Jayden, who has just finished runnnig 101 marathons in 101 consecutive days.

Kate set off on New Year's Day 2022, and has raised over £27,000 to help refugees with food, hygiene products, and mental health support.

The distance of 100 marathons, is the same distance that a Syrian refugee would travel to come to the UK.

But this is not her first ultra endurance challenge.

In 2027, she ran from London to Paris and cycled back. She has cycled from John'O'Groats in Scotland to Lands End in Scotland and run back. And this summer, she will do complete 10 Ironman distance triathlons back to back. She is unusual in being one of the few females in ultra distance events, proving that anything is possible with the right mindset. We spoke about her upbringing and how she has survived and thrived despite suffer abuse when she was young child. She chats about the mental processes that she uses to survive and thrive during these epic challenges, particularly when working full time. And if you want to know what she eats in order to manage to run a marathon a day - all that have to be done as one run, you'll find out here!
