Elite climber Eddie shares his struggles and breakthroughs in Training, Nutrition, Tactics, and Mental Game

-

Eddie pretty much does it all – boulder, sport, big wall, ice, alpine… he’s stoked, he’s driven, and he’s incredibly fit on vertical terrain. Just a few highlights from many, Eddie has freed Moonlight Buttress, the notoriously challenging Grade V, 12d multipitch in Zion. He’s done The Nose of El Cap in a day along with other big routes in the valley, and lately has been spotted linking up heinously long bike rides with fast and light multi-pitch climbing with his friend and recent guest of the pod, Nina Williams. He has also summited Mt Everest! And he has accomplished all of this while also holding down a full time job as a high school chemistry teacher, track and field coach, husband, and father. Eddie shows that we are ALL capable of greatness if we put our hearts and minds to it.
