Nathan Fa'avae

Today’s guest is one of the most remarkable athletes we have here in New Zealand.  If I were to list or read out Nathan Fa’avae’s achievements over the years, we would actually run out of time to speak to him! In short, he’s one of the greatest endurance athletes in the world. And when I say endurance, I mean races that last for DAYS. Nathan and his teammates have won six Adventure Racing World Champion titles, and he's been involved in so many other amazing races all around the world. Amazingly, his passion for the outdoors and long-distance events came while he was a teenager at a camp for at-risk youth. A truly awesome story.

We‘re sitting down and we’re yarning to some great New Zealanders, their back stories, their front stories, even stories where they went sideways, we will go there. It’s a place where we celebrate the great people of this glorious nation.
