Description:

In this episode, David talks to Do-Badder Allie Bailey on her recent return from running the route of the Mongolia 100 - set to launch next year.

She explains exactly what went down when a handful of Do-Badders (and G-Law) did when they raced 100 miles across a frozen lake in Mongolia.

Allie reveals:

  • How the hell she got roped into doing it in the first place
  • The extremely limited diet of a Mongolia ultrarunner
  • Why you need to leave the wood burner in your yurt the hell alone if you don't want to end up naked in the middle of a frozen lake trying to cool down
  • The best strategy to get you from one side of the lake to the other
  • Why you WILL probably die if you run this race if you don't take it seriously and trying winging it like most Brits at multi-day events (yep, we're looking at you again MdS)
  • What the great and good of Mongolian government thought when they enjoyed an evening of vodka and more vodka with the Do-Badders

And David also takes this opportunity to introduce Allie as BBR's new roving interviewer/interviewee (he's not quite sure which...).

WELCOME ALLIE!

Even with the new level of maturity Allie brings to the podcast, Jody and David still try to pre-empt this by talking absolute rubbish before and after the interview.

The Silk Cut on this episode is around 55 minutes (woooooaaahhhh!)
