Overnight at the Saunders Lakeland Mountain Marathon

The overnight camp at the Saunders Lakeland Mountain Marathon must be one of the best places in the world.  The shared stories from the day bring everyone together in a way that you don’t really experience in other areas of your life - getting lost in the cloud, the various degrees of ankle pain from contouring around hills and doing battle with tussocks, the happy realisation that there’s life beyond footpaths. 

It all adds up to the joy of spending time outside.

We talk about:

• The best food to eat between Saunders days
• The difference that route choice can make on the hill
• The joy found in partners on the trail
• How the Saunders has become a family tradition that spans entire generations and ages.
• Love and loss and how people find connection on the hills.
