Episode 342

parkrun tourist; the man the Jennings challenge is named after (seven parkruns in a row on one trip); home run Nambour, local run Victory Heights, Gympie
Why he is in Japan (three months studying Japanese, plus 13 different parkruns), describing the mountain course at Ome Kyuryo, the Jennings challenge he only learned was named after him afterwards, and the lengths he has gone to for a parkrun, cycling Brisbane to Sydney, kayaking from Mooloolaba to Brisbane, and an overnight bus from Norway to Copenhagen after a cancellation.

Names are as said on air and as the automatic transcription heard them, and may be wrong.

Nambour parkrunner; member of Cardiac Athletes; founder of the Hendrix Mount Cooroora Endurance Challenge
How cardiac surgery and a family history of very different heart conditions led him to parkrun as therapy; why he backs the #Defibs4parkrun campaign; and renaming his Mount Cooroora endurance event in memory of his grandson Hendrix, who died of SIDS.
