Christian is joined by Adam Klink, who just competed in the Leadville Trail 100 Run in Colorado. Adam gets brutally honest and for the first time shares what happened during that 24-hour run — how he adjusted to the higher altitude, how he pushed his body as far as he possibly could, and why his food plan didn't work. Adam was also the first to complete a 500-lb back squat and to run a sub-5 minute mile in the same day, which is something Christian just attempted, and they talk about how they both prepared and trained for this feat. Adam reminds us that success is often measured by the effort, not the outcome — and that's something only you can know: You gave it everything you had, you couldn't give it any more, and you're the personal judge of those feelings. If you gave 100% of everything you had, that's a success! Plus, sometimes it's a bigger learning opportunity to NOT make your goal on the first attempt. And a closing encouragement, especially to all the influencers out there: If you only showcase your wins, sure, that's cool, but isn't it more relatable for people if you're sharing your struggles too? Show people your hard days, your better days, the things you love, the things that haven't worked as well. Share it!
