The Aussie Backyard Ultra Team Ep.8: The Crow - Brandon Lee Grech

Brandon Lee Grech, better known as The Crow, is one of the most genuine people in Australian backyard ultra, and it's a big reason he's such a crowd favourite. At the Melbourne Frontyard Ultra he fell short of making the Australian team. Eleven weeks later he turned it around at Reds Backyard Ultra, running a PB of 72 loops and 483.12km to earn his spot on the team for the Backyard Ultra World Championships in Wollongong. We talk about how he handled missing out, what changed in those 11 weeks, how he got through 72 hours on his feet, and what it means to him to run for Australia. This episode is part of my series interviewing every member of the Australian team before the World Championships. Follow Brandon: @brandonleegrech The Crows Nest Podcast Follow me: @the_other_brady
