    In this episode, Brad chats to Koula Budler, a former 5FM and Top Billing presenter, now living in Texas, running a home bakery, juggling four kids, and training for her 8th Comrades as she chases that long-dreamed-of green number before 50.

    She shares what it’s really like to train for Comrades with zero family support nearby, crazy early-morning treadmill sessions, the massive gap in female participation, and why South African runners have no idea how lucky they are with races, clubs and community.
