Talks 391 - Robbie Balenger, Ultrarunner Who Challenged A Tesla

I’ll run that far in 72 hours.” That’s essentially what Robbie Balenger did in April of 2022, and his effort made global headlines, because the target distance was 242 miles. He tells Spanny how he’d built up the credibility and support for the attempt, with a record that included running across the U.S in 75 days (43 miles per day). And this was after only 8 years as a serious runner. Why does Robbie do this?
