Jordan Purdy has been a barber in Nottingham for over a decade, but these days he's just as well known for the hiking, wild camping and ultra-running content he shares as @purdsoutdoors. A life-changing road trip around Slovakia pulled him out of pub culture and into the mountains, and a tough childhood, including a violent attack as a teenager, taught him early on not to take anything for granted.
In this episode, Jordan joins host Ben Sheppard to talk about growing up on the move, the night that changed the course of his life, and why he'd never change his past even if he could. He opens up about completing his first ultra marathon at Lulworth Cove with RunThrough Trails, chasing dark tourism destinations like Chernobyl and the world's most dangerous train journey, and why he's such a vocal advocate for men's mental health.
