#061 - Yorkmania: Cape York to Tassie with a Hammock and a Trailer

Merlin didn’t just “go for a run”. He dragged a little trailer from the top of Australia all the way to Tassie, slept in a hammock on the side of the road, and woke up every day to do it again.

We talk the real logistics and the real shit parts: 126 days, about 5,700km, what he ate, how he found water, what happens when the trailer breaks, and what it’s like camping in croc country with mozzies chewing you alive (plus a wild boar popping up before the run even properly started).

But the best bit is the mindset. How you keep moving when your body is cooked, your training wasn’t perfect, you’re alone, and the only job is “get it done” for months straight.

If you’ve ever thought “I want to do something big” but you keep talking yourself out of it, go listen to #061. This one will either light you up or call you out.
