Trishul Cherns loves to run. So much so, that he routinely embarks on multi-day and multi week races, revelling in the robust but little-known world of mega ultra endurance events. According to his calculation, he has the longest ultra marathoning career in Canadian history, spanning 43 years – and he doesn’t plan to stop anytime soon. In November he reached a milestone, completing his 300th ultra.
