As an endurance athlete and ex tv guy, Graham Ross learned a lot of lessons he's applying to his businesses. Founding his sports brand, Kusaga Athletic led him on a path to discover the enormous problem we have with unwanted textiles - think clothing, towels, sheets, everything. Blocktexx was born, where Graham and his partner Adrian Jones are doing their best to save the planet from more than a million tonnes of textiles going to landfill each year, in Australia alone.
We talk Blocktexx and how we can all help reduce massive textile waste, his life as an athlete, why curiosity is a wonderful thing, the best Great Wall Marathon story ( which he's done twice) and advice for cycling in France.
Enjoy this informative, thought provoking chat, peppered with warm stories, from Graham Ross.
