Listen Later

This week on a bumper Episode 114 of The Aid Station, presented by njuko, we travel to the USA for a far-reaching conversation with Ian Adamson, former competitive adventure racer, television professional and president of World Obstacle.

It's an episode so packed with insights and inspiration that it stretches way beyond our usual limits to 30minutes. A few of the highlights include: 

  • The vital role of sleep and its impact on memory. These insights alone are worth investing the time to listen to the conversation
  • The story behind how Obstacle Racing was one of only two sports since 2018 to achieve Global Association of International Sports Federation observer status - a key stepping stone to becoming an Olympic Sport
  • Behind the scenes insights into delivering the World Ninja Championships in 2019 in Gorky Park, Moscow with 100,000 spectators
  • Delivering the highest ever OCR World Championships in the crater of Mount Kilimanjaro and directly impacting the lives of over 10,000 local 
  • People and it's relevance to every mass participation event
  • Understanding that everyone's point of view is 100% correct - even if you don't agree with it
