Ben Kelleher, the man behind BKDMC, has embarked on an extraordinary journey, taking on Deliriously Mad Challenges across the globe.
From his first marathon in London at the age of 18, Ben has consistently pushed boundaries, conquering Marathons, Ultras & Triathlons, whilst gaining Boston Qualification, and being in the process of completing all of the prestigious World Marathon Majors. Driven by an unwavering determination, he aims to shatter barriers and inspire others.
Over the next year, Ben sets his sights on his final three Marathon Majors, with Tokyo in March 2025, followed by Boston 2026 and culminating in Sydney that same year. Additionally, he returns to the Ultra Marathon, having achieved a remarkable fourth-place finish in his inaugural 50K in 2024. This year, he’ll be tackling the grueling 100KM at Race to the Kings. Moreover, he’ll make his debut in the Olympic Triathlon at T100 London.
But Ben’s remarkable journey doesn’t end there.
He also hosts the immensely popular podcast, “Running For The Bus,” supported by Runna & Veloforte. This inspiring show features Ben interviewing extraordinary athletes, including Olympians, MBE recipients, and World Record holders, while also supporting a group of Deliriously Mad Challengers in their awe-inspiring endeavours.
Beyond his podcasting endeavours, Ben has showcased his talents as an actor and producer. Since the age of five, he has graced the stage and screen, and now produces the annual sell-out West End production, “Tread the Boards,” which raises thousands for worthy causes.
The journey ahead is set to be unexpected, exciting & deliriously mad…
