Welcome to part one of my podcast interview with ultra-running adventurer Nikki Love, where we delve into her incredible journey across Australia. On May 1st, 2023, Nikki embarked on a monumental 4000km run from Perth to Sydney, a feat that tested her endurance and resolve.
Nikki initially aimed to cover 60km each day, aiming to surpass the men’s record. However, the reality of the terrain and conditions proved more demanding than anticipated. Battling warmer weather, bustling traffic, and physical strain, Nikki found herself behind schedule within the first few days. Despite the setbacks, she persisted, pushing through the pain and adjusting her expectations along the way.
But what does it take to get to the start line? In Nikki’s case is was 10 years in the planning, a lot of training, injury, disappointment and sacrifice. In this podcast you’ll hear what it takes and the commitment involved.
Join us as Nikki recounts the highs and lows of her epic adventure, offering profound insights into the power of perseverance and the joy of realising a dream.
In the second part of our conversation, Nikki shares insights into her distance goals, the challenges she faced on the road, and the triumphant culmination of her journey. So stay tuned!
