In this episode, we sit down with Adrian Ball, who went from couch to 5k, to completing a 250km ultramarathon across the Jordanian desert - all within just 18 months and at the age of 46. Adrian shares how ultrarunning transformed his life, teaching him powerful lessons about resilience, planning, and mindset that now shape the way he approaches both running and business.
Adrian’s story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to take on something extraordinary - and that the mental tools we build on the trail can help us navigate the rest of life’s challenges.
