On this episode of Le Down I had an excellent conversation with ultramarathoner and triathlete, Rob Kemp.

Rob had an active childhood and used running as a way to stay in shape for hockey. But over the years it became so much more.

He's enjoyed a long career in radio and doesn't shy away from long distances either, taking on marathons, Ironman triathlons and most recently, the Bromont Ultra 100 miler. He taught me sometimes it's not about how or if you finish but the pursuit of something far greater. The victory comes from getting to the start.
