On this episode of Le Run Down I had an inspiring chat with Ultra Runner and creator of End2End, Alexis Limoges.

He started with 3 kilometer runs around his house but slowly increased his distance and saw there was so much more to discover the further he went.

Alexis continued to develop that passion, growing through the sport and is trying to help those who aren't so lucky. Creating End2End has allowed him to not only push his own personal limits but raise funds for local charities as well.
