  • Summary

  • Donato, aka Twitter's Poet With Pace, hasn't always been a runner. Indeed, he didn't even start running until he was in his mid-50s and only took to the sport to raise money for charity. But once he started, there was no stopping him. Since completing the Birmingham Half-Marathon in 2015, Donato has gone on to break a Guinness World Record for running the fastest marathon dressed as a hospital patient, completed five marathon majors and raced for England at Master's level. Along the way he has amassed a YouTube following of close 5,500 subscribers to his 'Chatty Adventures' channel, where he posts race videos. Running Tales spoke to Donato about how he first started running, finding out he was both good at it and that it brought him joy, and why it took him so long to discover the sport in the first place... nb.. Donato has requested we only use his first name. We are happy to comply with that request. -------------------------------- 🎤 LISTEN TO THE RUNNING TALES PODCAST: Follow this smart link to wherever you listen [https://link.chtbl.com/tVqw2t5u] 📖 READ RUNNING TALES ON SUBSTACK: Read our articles here: https://runningtales.substack.com Subscribe to our Substack newsletter: https://runningtales.substack.com/subscribe 📧 EMAIL: craig@runningtales.co.uk FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/runningtalespodcast TWITTER: https://twitter.com/RunningTalesPod INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/runningtalespod/ YOUTUBE: https://youtube.com/@runningtalespod
