The Hard Way With Joe De Sena

Ran 50 Marathons in 50 Days—Here's How He Stays Fit at 60+


Listen Later

In this episode, Joe De Sena sits down with Dean Karnazes, one of the world's most relentless endurance athletes. Dean is an ultra-marathoner and is still competing hard at 60+. From a spontaneous 30-mile run sparked by tequila to training like a Spartan with no gym, he shares powerful lessons on discipline, resilience, and building a body—and mindset—that doesn't quit. You'll learn how micro workouts can transform your day, why breathing through your nose can upgrade your endurance, and how to push past your limits when your mind wants to give up. If you're looking for motivation to get moving, level up your habits, or stop making excuses, this is the episode you need.
