Tom Dade // the incredible world of ultra running and mountaineering

Beyond Sport with Fiona Stewart

This weeks guest is Tom Dade, an ultra runner who thrives off challenging himself to push beyond the limits through some extraordinary adventures. Tom and I chatted virtually last week – as we are both in Melbourne experiencing lockdown number 4, about the incredible things that he has achieved at the age of 22, as well as some of the challenges he has faced along the way.

Tom’s got a strong message to believe in yourself and that you are more capable than what you think, this chat certainly inspired me, so I hope you enjoy this episode.

Before we jump in, just a quick warning that we do briefly touch on eating disorders early on in this episode, so if this is triggering for you, please feel free to skip the 6 and a half minute mark. If you do want to learn more or need assistance, there’s many great organisations out there, one being the butterfly foundation – where you can find the link to this in the show notes.
