Join the Athletics Ontario Running Podcast as we sit down with Leslie Huffman, an inspiring ultra-runner who constantly redefines her own physical limits.
Discover how her grueling years planting trees in Northern Canada forged her relentless trail grit and how she conquered a severely broken foot to finish a highly technical QMT 2024 race, and why she is cycling 500 kilometers this August to fundraise for childhood cancer causes.
Preparing now for BC's steep, challenging multi-day Golden Ultra, Leslie shares her heartwarming journey from childhood gymnastics to scaling beautiful mountain peaks. Tune in today to discover what it truly takes to endure!
