Hello beautiful people
On today’s podcast we have the beautiful soul Scott Richmond. Scotty is a husband, father of 3, graphic designer, the persona Ozzie on a kids educational YouTube Channel and ultramarathon runner, most notably having finished the UTA, a 100km ultramarathon event in the Blue Mountains, Australia, nine times, having placed as high as 6th and most recently, 7th place.
What I personally love about this podcast is going deeper into the motivation behind Scotty getting into ultramarathon running and particularly why he has participated in the UTA so many times. He shares that it all started to honour the memory and legacy of his little cousin Elliot who passed at the young age of 19-years-old to Motor Neuron Disease; fundraising for MND, Scotty wanted to try something that was well out of his comfort zone, and a 100km ultramarathon was just that, not knowing at the time that it would lead to a long-lasting obsession.
Scotty is a heart on his sleeve kind of guy, and you can really feel into the pain that the loss of a young family member can bring, but also the passion. Scotty values the sentimental aspect of his running, just as much as the competitive, and it is truly beautiful to hear the relationship between these and how it manifests in his high performance.
