Kristin Harila is a Norwegian mountain climber who recently set a world speed record for climbing the 14 highest peaks in just 92 days. 

 

Some interesting insights from this episode:

·         She quit her job and sold her home and put everything on the line to achieve this goal. 

·         “If you are happy with less than your goal, then you’ll never reach your goal.”

·         You have to truly believe in what you’re doing if you want to achieve a goal.

·         Working together as a team with her Sherpa was a key component of allowing her to pull off this world record.

·         Many people think that the summit is the goal but the goal is actually to come safely back down the mountain.

·         “On almost all the peaks, there are dead people.  If it happens to me, I will have died happy.”
