David Field

David began running track (800m) as a teenager and as he’s gotten older and slower the events have got longer and longer. Hence in the last year David has run two marathons (Afghanistan 2017 & Somiliand in 2018) and one ultra (Patagonia 250km). David heard about this event from some runners on the ultra. In the more distant past David has done another couple of ultras - Ecuador 2015 + Gobi Desert and several marathons including Sierra Leone, Medoc (France) & Berlin. David says he peaks in the first km, so is no great threat over 42k...he says he is basically a track runner who has got old so can no longer compete at 800m and has gradually pushed the pace slower, the distance longer, and the challenge harder.
