Strap in—this is Part Two of our epic conversation with Aussie ultra-legend Kelvin Marshall, and trust us, you’re in for a ride.

In this follow-up to Part One, we pick up mid-run—literally—on Kelvin’s 18-day running adventure across France. With just a backpack and a rough route, Kelvin recounts the highs, lows, chateaux visits, and sneaky hotel showers that made this DIY ultra unforgettable.

But France is only the beginning.

In Part Two, we dive into: •🏃‍♂️ Running 18 days across France—with hotel hacks, friendly locals, and a few wrong turns •🏔️ Kelvin’s Western States 100 journey—spoiler: it didn’t go to plan •🥵 Badwater 135—racing through Death Valley (and finishing strong after a tough start) •🎒 How he packed way too much and learned what not to bring on a long run •🥳 Stories from across the USA, Hungary, and beyond—including a 6-day race and more!

Kelvin’s tips (and life advice): ✔️ Make the adventure part of the plan ✔️ It’s okay to DNF—just come back stronger ✔️ Be friendly, say yes, and the running world will open up ✔️ Don’t overpack. Really. ✔️ Every runner has a wild story—yours is worth telling too

This is one of the most jam-packed episodes we’ve ever released, and Kelvin delivers the goods with humour, humility, and a tonne of heart.
