BFBS radio interview with Steve Muir, U.K. 

Second place finisher of the world's toughest 217km trail ultramarathon in Limassol, January 16th-18th 2016.

Cyprus Ultra Director notes -
​

• Steve ran Cyprus Ultra raising thousands of Euros for his cousin Karen, a doctor who was killed by the Taliban while helping the desperate in Afghanistan. (please support here https://www.justgiving.com/zedmuir/)
• Steve is a vegan ultra runner and after this race, takes the crown of No.1 vegan ultra runner in Cyprus.
• He ran our race (Rough rocky mountain trails) in Vibram 5 finger barefoot running shoes!
• He completed the 217km trail race which has a total elevation gain of around 7000 meters in just 42:33.
• He ran the ENTIRE RACE calm, polite and at ALL TIMES respectful to fellow runners, race staff and volunteers. (we see this type of exceptional ultra running old school characteristics less and less these days)
• He is without doubt - One of the most humble and incredibly talented pure ultra runners you would ever be so fortunate enough to ever spend time with on the trails.

Finally - It's runners like Steve that gives us reason to continue working harder to refine and perfect the Cyprus Ultra Marathon. Steve, we salute you and thank you.

Our total respect. You need to read the full story. https://www.justgiving.com/zedmuir/
