Today we are joined by Kim Collison an elite level ultra-distance runner and running coach who lives in the Lake District.

Kim boasts one of the most impressive running CV’s out there, claiming a number of ultra-distance records and titles across the UK and overseas.

In more recent years this included the Lakeland 24 hour Fell Record and in 2021 the Paddy Buckley round in Wales in a time of 16 hours 20 minutes and 40 seconds.

Since recording our chat Kim recently went on to break the 24 hour munro record in the Cairngorms, Scotland - scaling 33 Munro’s, 160 km distance and over 9000m of elevation.

We’re going to be deep-diving into what makes him so successful as both an athlete and coach and hopefully you’ll get some great takeaways from our conversation.
