Bill Bradley is an ultra-endurance athlete with events like the 135-mile Bad Water ultramarathon

under his belt. He even went back and completed the double Badwater. Then he completed the quadruple Badwater and is one of only 4 people ever to do it. Bill made 9 attempts at Arrowhead 135. A 135-mile foot race through the snow in subzero temperatures. He is currently preparing for his 6th attempt at the English Channel swim.


Bill’s motto is “Show up and suffer”.


“If you want a big life and you want to achieve some things and inspire other people, you need to go after big goals. And when you go after big goals you can fail. Trust me, I probably have more fails than most people, it doesn’t stop me.”
