Podcast episode co-hosted by Kevin Westlake and Candice Burt chronicling the inaugural Delirious WEST 219 mile/350km race that took place on the West Coast of Australia. We bring you live recordings from before, during and after the race including Candice's story (1st place female/3rd place overall) and Kevin's experiences as a first time crew/pacer and his interviews of other athletes in the race, volunteers, crew/pacers and the race director Shaun Kaesler. This inaugural event is special because it runs point to point along the very west coast of Australia on the Bibbulmun Track from Northcliff to Albany. The story includes getting lost, hallucinations, the joys of running multiple days, sleep deprivation struggles, and a heck of a lot more. Learn all about 200 mile racing!
