Resilient Humans

Episode 156: The Real Reason I’m Running the Dobson Trail


Listen Later

In this episode of Resilient Humans, Kevin takes you behind the scenes of his decision to run the full 57km Dobson Trail - without a specific training plan.

No event-specific prep. No fancy spreadsheet. Just one simple reason:

Because he can.

Kevin shares how training consistently since 2006 has built more than just strength - it's built capability, confidence, and freedom. Whether it’s climbing a mountain, running a Spartan race, or responding to a 2am fire call in full gear within five minutes of waking up, this episode is a reminder that resilience is being ready when life calls - expected or not.

You’ll hear about:

  • 💪 Why consistency beats event-specific training
  • 🔥 How a 2am fire call reveals true capability
  • 🎯 The difference between looking fit and being ready
  • ⚡ The real reason to train: freedom to say yes
  • ✅ A weekly challenge to help you become more capable in your own life


This episode isn’t just about a trail run. It’s about building a life where you can say “yes” to adventure, challenge, and opportunity without hesitation.
