In this uplifting episode, we sit down with Ron Crowhurst and Steve Bradley— two remarkable runners from Whangārei whose story embodies courage, community, and connection.

Ron’s journey is one of transformation — from losing weight and achieving outstanding marathon times in his younger years to becoming a driving force in Whangārei’s parkrun community and a dedicated guide with Achilles New Zealand.

Steve, who is vision-impaired, has achieved incredible things and now walks and sometimes runs side-by-side with Ron as his guide. Together, they’ve built a partnership built on trust, humour, and shared determination.

We talk about the challenges and rewards as a guide-athlete team, their shared experiences with Achilles New Zealand, and their recent adventure in Rarotonga, where a 31km walk tested both their resilience and friendship.

It’s a story about believing in each other, pushing beyond limits, and discovering that the most meaningful victories aren’t always about the stopwatch — they’re about the journey, the people beside you, and the community that cheers you on.
