Episode Description

Runners slow down with age, right? Despite being tech-savvy, Mark Wigglesworth never got that brief.

After taking up running in his early 60s, Mark has gone from casual jogs and the occasional parkrun, to routinely clocking over 100 kilometres a week; regularly topping his age group and rewriting what’s possible later in life. But behind the stats lies a story of grit, resilience, and true self-belief.

In this uplifting episode of Runbelievable, Joshie and Matty sit down with a runner whose drive and discipline prove that it’s never too late to start. From a health scare that could have stopped him in his tracks to marathon adventures across the globe, Mark’s story shows that passion doesn’t retire... and that running can rebuild far more than fitness.

In this episode:

• How Mark found running, and why he started in his 60s
• Building the routine, discipline, and mindset for 100km+ weeks
• The health scare that could have derailed it all
• What keeps him chasing improvement every single day
• The improbable goal he’s working towards
