Episode 246 : Nicki Marsh - MDS The Legendary
Episode 246 of Talk Ultra is with Nicki Marsh as we countdown to Marathon des Sables - The Legendary. With a 50th birthday looming in 2024 Nicki had been toying with lots of ideas of how to celebrate... The only thing that truly excited me (and could fit around work!) was MDS. Her husband had done it in 2017 and said never again. However, it took him all of 30 seconds to agree to do it again, with Nicki!

Customer Reviews
Very Good in Parts
Some excellent guests and enjoy Karl’s input when he can get a word in. Would prefer less info on Ian’s itinerary and more from the runners themselves. Wouldn’t mind mixing up the elite perspective with a few interviews directed towards normal runners to have a few takeaways to improve our own running / training but that might dilute his podcast / photography business model. Overall Ian is a warm and chatty host and obviously thoroughly enjoys attending, relaying, analysing elite ultra events.
Good content
Really enjoyed the recent MdS episode, great questions and good insight into a big change in the community. After listening I am excited to attend MdS in the future again. Thanks Ian
Wayyyyy to serious….
Yes it’s about running but it’s far too serious! It’s only running! I’m an ultra runner and yes I take it really seriously but gosh it’s about having fun on the way. The last thing we want is a podcast taking themselves way too seriously!
