Harald Ulriksen -

Ultra Marathon Athlete, charity ultra long distance runner

With a very personal drive to assist the fight against cancer.

Harald lost his wife Brony to Breast Cancer after a 6 year battle and during the same time lost his father to lung cancer. In 2008, through the pain of the loss he found that walking would be his way out of the grief and chose to walk 2400km SOLO from Adelaide to Brisbane Australia (walka2b was born) starting at over 120 kilos his life changed and was able to start running.

Pinklads in 2009 was created and a 1000km run from Melbourne to Sydney was held to raise funds for breast cancer. Getting involved with the NSW CANCER COUNCIL in the Relay for Life events and running 400km in New Zealand and 500km in Spain, trekking and climbing in the Himalayas, he has kept running around the world, and most recently completed a massive 3700km run in 65days in Chile running from north to south through the Atacama desert and passing the Andes mountains. www.runchile.com

RUNA2B is the drive and passion to keep the inspiration of running long distances, and showing the ability of the human body, mind and spirit. when faced with a task that seems impossible we CAN find a way to make the impossible possible. We can find positive and inspired thoughts and actions even in our darkest times.

Now his next challenge will be 1000km from Inverness to Brighton in the UK, solo.
