On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, Ivan and I decide to put
Ed Pilkington under the spotlight, where we ask questions about his
upbringing, his early years in sports coaching, the differences in
passion projects and careers, and why and how he lives and breathes
our mantra: the physical is the vehicle.
“Go along and do some work experience, then see what it’s actually like. “
- Ed Pilkington
