Episode 31
Dr. Paddy Mitton
Ever wondered how to prepare your body for a mountain ultra? Or how to run a marathon in the sub zero temperatures of Antarctica?
This week Tris and Jay are joined by doctor and ultra runner Paddy Mitton who's office is normally the icy wastes of the southern hemisphere.
Paddy is an expert in how the human body operates in terrestrial extremes, the very edges of our limits and how to prepare and perform in those places.
So join us for another episode of Trail and Error.
