Danny Bent On Uniting The World Through Running
Description
Danny Bent is an award winning author and journalist, Guinness World Record holder, celebrated adventurer and community leader.
Voted one of the 100 happiest people in the UK, as well as one of the 50 most inspirational people in London, in this episode of the Eat Your Greens podcast, Danny shares his plans for the maiden One Run Global challenge; a running movement that aims to unite the world in December. One Run Global is an idea, in part, inspired by a running relay he organised across America in 2013 following the terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon and which raised $600,000 for the victims of the attack.
In this episode, Danny also explains how he helps people who feel chained by life to break free and realise that they’re capable of the incredible. What’s more, he also shares the practical first steps to take if this is something you relate to.
