In this RECAP EPISODE, I sit down with former Royal Marine and adventurer Mitch Hutchcraft before he completed what's been dubbed the "world's longest triathlon." Over 240 days, Mitch swam the English Channel, cycled nearly 12,000 km across 19 countries, ran 900 km to Kathmandu, and trekked 365 km to Everest Base Camp before summiting Mount Everest.

But beyond the physical feats, Mitch's journey—Project Limitless—was about challenging perceptions of adventure and making a tangible impact. He undertook this expedition to raise funds for SAVSIM, a charity supporting veterans' mental health and wildlife conservation.

In our conversation, Mitch shares his Call to Adventure: encouraging listeners to find challenges that push them slightly out of their comfort zones. Whether it's wild camping in a nearby national park or taking a cold plunge in a local lake, adventure is a state of mind.

For his Pay It Forward, Mitch emphasizes the importance of aligning with causes close to one's heart. He advocates for dedicating time and resources to organizations that resonate personally, highlighting the profound impact of collective effort.

📍 Topics Covered:

  • The conception and execution of Project Limitless
  • Redefining adventure as a personal and accessible pursuit
  • The intersection of physical challenges and mental health
  • The mission and work of SAVSIM
  • Encouraging community involvement and support for meaningful causes
