This film is part of some unseen exclusive interview footage with Scott Jurek from his 2013 Eat & Run book launch in London. I found this recently in my files and it has never been published before. His advice is still very interesting and relevant today.

Do subscribe as there are 3 of these and the third one will be ready next week. Bear with, there is only one of me doing everything – filming, editing, writing, website-ing and social media-ing 🙂 I can manage one YouTube video a week at the moment. Filming doesn’t take that long, but it’s the editing process that takes longer. Not that you’d know to look at my films! I can’t wait until I’ve grow my business enough to get a freelance video editor involved so I can output more and better quality trail running films on my YouTube channel Wild Ginger Films.

If you fancy buying Scott’s book Eat & Run after watching this, then if you could do so via this link below that would be awesome as it gives me a few pennies without any impact on your pocket. Every little helps! Thank you.
