Episode 4: Running is My Religion

There are few runners in the world as tough and as accomplished as the Lithuanian legend Gediminas Grinius. The former UTWT world champion, TransGrancanaria winner, Wasatch 100 winner and all round ultra running super-star joins Paul and James in an explosively open chat on a range of subjects:

• His route to running as a way to deal with his PTSD from his military tours in Iraq
• Hearing an average of two bombs per day land within a few KMs of their base every day for 6 months
• Fighting his way to the top of mountain running from a flat country
• The importance of his family in his career
• And how running is everything that helps balance his incredible outlook on life
