We’re stoked to host this chat with Blakey Johnston, the passionate former pro surfer, who recently broke the world record for the world’s longest surf. We hear all about why he chose to do it, the influence of his amazing parents growing up and his advice for embracing the ‘epicness’ of everyday life.

Also the chat: 

• How Blakey got into barefoot running
• What surfing for 40 hours does to your body,
• And lots of important discussions around mental health
