David has a wealth of experience in the Ultra World and has recently jumped into to the race director's seat to produce Sydney's newest trail racing series. David and the team at 180 Cadence are delivering the Sydney Trail Half, Sydney Trail Marathon, Sydney Trail Ultra and the big dog Sydney Backyard Ultra.


We chat about what sets these races apart and why you should put them on your race calendar. We also discuss how they've managed to provide Australia's biggest prize purse for a trail race, a whopping $10000 for the male and female winners of the Sydney Backyard Ultra!


David also gets stuck into his unusual relationship with the dreaded DNF. His DNF stories are varied, bizarre and heartbreaking. Certainly some lessons to learn there.


The guys at 180 Cadence have been kind enough to offer our listeners $20 off race entry for the Sydney Trail Ultra (August) and the Sydney Backyard Ultra (October).
