Running Buddies featuring Michele Graglia
Episode 47
Tuesday, 7 April, 2026
On today's show the conversation takes us to Italy where we have an excellent chat with ultra runner Michele Graglia. I had never met Michele before but the conversation really flowed and we ended speaking for over an hour! Michelle is an elite ultramarathoner who transitioned into the sport after a successful career as a professional model. He discusses his upbringing in the Italian Alps, explaining how his childhood connection to the mountains eventually led to leave the high-fashion industry for the world of extreme racing. Graglia details his victories in prestigious events like Badwater 135 and his record-setting run across the Atacama Desert, emphasizing the mental discipline and logistical precision required for such feats. The conversation explores the evolving landscape of ultrarunning, touching on the financial challenges professional athletes face as the sport grows more commercial. He also recounts a harrowing encounter with an Arctic wolf during a race in the Yukon, illustrating the profound solitude and primal nature of her adventures. Finally, Graglia shares his future aspirations, including her current training for the Tor des Géants, a notoriously difficult 220-mile mountain race.For the FREE BOOK GIVEAWAY ENTER: HEREOstrich Running: HEREHettas Running: HEREFull Transcript: HERESupport the showSubscribe to Running Scared Media wherever you get your podcasts for more episodes!RunningScaredMedia.comVisit our shop to purchase our jogcasts and other merchEmail us at: therunningscaredpodcast@gmail.comFollow us:Instagram @runningscaredmediaJoin our FB Running Group
