'When I first heard about ultra running, I was excited by how crazy it sounded' - interview with Beth Pascall (part one)

Beth Pascall has finished in the top four in both of the world’s most prestigious trail ultra marathons, the Western States 100 in the US, and the UTMB in Europe. She is also a doctor, but this year is taking some time out from work to concentrate on her running. Here she talks about training with her dog, how she started out in ultra running and her childhood obsession with hiking across Dartmoor. Produced by IAmTheHow.
