Episode #115 Keith Russell and Team Alanna 'The Gift of Ultra Running'

Staying on home soil this week with the inspiring story of Keith and Alanna Russell, Alanna was born with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy, with no speech or use of her arms or legs she became the youngest person to complete the Dublin Marathon with proud father Keith.

Shortly after the race in December Alanna sadly left us, leaving behind a gift which brought a new direction to life for devoting father Keith.

Lets face it this guy is a legend, he's relatively new to the sport of running, he's already ran a sub 3 marathon, he came 3rd in the 107 mile dublin to belfast in 18hrs odd, he's ran 100 miles in just under 16 hours and his next race is Marathon Des Sables, all of which is fueled by the love of his daughter.
