This week I sit down with the incredibly talented singer/songwriter Michael Dunstan. For most of you who know Michael as a musician you may not know that he's also an accomplished ultramarathon runner with a recent podium at the international event, the MIUT Madeira 85k.

I got to know Mike more as we conversed about him being on the show over a few months and the more we talked the more I know he would be a great guest for the show. An easy person the speak to who has a calming persona which flows into his music and no doubt the people around him.

During Covid while music touring was on hold Michael started up running again and decided to aim for a few outstanding family records set by his dad. This would then turn into something he falls in love with as he begins to discover trail running for all that it is.

Michael meditates and practices mindfulness which in turn helps his running as it does in his life, reminding him to live in the now and be present. We can never say enough that what we learn from running can directly transcend into how we approach life and Mike seems to do it all so well with the extra element of peacefulness and gratitude to go along with pushing your boundaries, personal growth and resilience.

Super grateful to be sharing this one with you and for having the opportunity to be doing this and meeting new friends like Michael.

I think you'll enjoy it too.
