Dead last, but not defeated: Nasser Narain’s 8-hour Chatsworth Ultra Marathon

Loading player...
He came in last… but he still crossed the finish line — and that’s what made it count.

Nasser Narain completed the Chatsworth Ultra-Marathon in a tough 8 hours, proving that this wasn’t about podiums or personal bests… it was about pure determination.

Darren, Sky, and Carmen chat to Nasser about what pushed him to keep going, whether he actually trained for the race, and if he’s ever taken on something this demanding before.

Because sometimes, finishing last still means you beat everyone who didn’t even start.
