S2, E4.2: From Rock Bottom to Record Breaker – Lachy Cameron's FKT Journey

In this episode of The Long Run With Sean Bell, I sat down with my great friend Lachy Cameron. Lachy is an Australian Ultra Runner and mental health advocate who transformed personal adversity into a powerful mission for change.

In 2024, he broke the Fastest Known Time (FKT) record for running from Brisbane to Sydney—completing the 925 km journey in just over 10 days. This monumental effort raised over $33,000 for the mental health charity Heart On My Sleeve.

Lachy's journey into running began in 2021 as part of his recovery from severe depression and a suicide attempt. What started with short runs and walks evolved into a life-saving discipline. Running became his therapy and a way to reclaim his identity.

Lachy shares his story of resilience, the mental battles behind his physical feats, and how he turned personal pain into purpose. It's a raw, inspiring conversation about grit, growth, and the power of showing up for yourself.

I hope you love the episode and if you do, please leave a review and share it with others.

Giddy up!
