About Rewired Runner
In 2019, Mark Ford’s world turned upside down. A major stroke left him unable to move, speak, or care for himself, forcing him to rebuild from the ground up.
Once an active dad and business leader, Mark was suddenly faced with relearning every basic task: walking, talking, and living again.
With grit, support, and an unshakable mindset, Mark set an audacious goal: not just to recover but to run again, and ultimately conquer ultramarathons.
Why Rewired Runner Exists
Mark created The Rewired Runner to give back, turning his hard-won recovery into hope and inspiration for others.

Why does this matter?
Mark’s journey is a testament to what’s possible with purpose and perseverance. From being paralysed by a stroke to running three ultramarathons, each over 100km, within six months, he has redefined recovery. Along the way, he’s raised over $20,000 for stroke research and built a growing community of comeback-driven individuals. What started as a personal fight has evolved into a platform for hope, action, and redefining what it means to thrive after adversity.
