Author: Alan Nash January 18, 2023 Duration: 50:16
Nashy met Jamie last year at the Kendal Mountain Festival however they didn’t have time to record there and then. They kept in touch and made it happen with Jamie joining Nashy on Zoom form his home near the Pyrenees Mountain Range.

Jamie is a British long distance runner and ultra adventurer that has taken on and completed many incredible feats of endurance. He once ran 17,000 kilometres (11,000 mi) from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, to Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 600 days.

A man that does not chase world 1st's or records but chooses challenges that will push his mind and body to the limit once completed.

Check Jamie out across social media and YouTube to keep up to date with his plans for 2023.

Hope you enjoy.

Hosted by Alan Nash, better known as Nashy, The GET AFTER IT Family Pod is a conversation series built on the idea that a full life requires equal parts ambition and balance. As an adventure enthusiast and father of three, Nashy brings a unique perspective, exploring how the drive that fuels elite performance can also shape a meaningful family life. The discussions here naturally weave through the worlds of sports, business, and personal growth. You’ll hear from a diverse mix of professional athletes, boundary-pushing entrepreneurs, and other compelling figures who have all learned to get after their goals. But this isn’t just about their public achievements. The conversations often delve into the personal philosophies and daily disciplines that allow these guests to thrive, while also touching on the challenges of maintaining connection and perspective outside of their careers. Each episode feels like an honest chat about pushing limits, whether that’s on a mountain, in a boardroom, or simply at home with loved ones. By sharing stories of calculated risks and intentional living, this podcast offers more than inspiration; it provides practical reflections on integrating passion with responsibility, all through the grounded, relatable lens of a dad who is figuring it out alongside his guests. Tune in for genuine dialogues that challenge the conventional separation between professional hustle and personal fulfillment.
