A lot of the challenges we discuss on this podcast are about overcoming something unexpected, or something you were not prepared for, but this week’s episode is a different kind of challenge.

Extreme sports like Ultra Marathon running, or swimming every day for over 8 years require an incredible amount of preparation and endurance and that is something Peter Hancock has in spades.

This amazing friend of mine has pushed his body to the absolute limit with running and swimming and it was my absolute pleasure to talk with him about the impact that these incredibly challenging sports have had on him.

In this episode Peter shares:

-      What made him first get into ultra marathon running

-      The powerful addiction of endurance sports

-      The hardest run that really made things challenging for him

-      How he uses fortune cookies to help get through hard and challenging runs

-      How negative thoughts can derail a run

-      What made him decide to keep swimming for over 3000 days

-      The time his swimming caused him and his two children to have a run in with a shark

Key Quotes

“I try to focus on the positive...Once you start doubting the negative thoughts cascade.”

“It’s really inspiring to know that someone is waiting at 100km”

“Before every event I will open a fortune cookie and I’ll carry the fortune with me throughout the event.”
