About this episode
Will Howard joins us on Tea & Trails to share the remarkable story behind his debut at the Lakeland 100. In his first ever crack at the course, Will stormed to 3rd place, announcing himself as one of the freshest, most exciting new names in UK ultra running.
From a childhood spent trying every sport under the sun, through modern pentathlon, marathon racing, and a breakthrough ultra win in Minnesota, Will’s journey has somehow, almost inevitably led him to the fells. Will brings a blend of talent, perspective, and pure enthusiasm that makes this conversation a joy. It’s uplifting, packed with practical ultra running insight, full of Lakeland magic, and a reminder for all of us, to enjoy every step of the journey.
