Tara Dower on How to Beat Imposter Syndrome, Craft an FKT Attempt, and Optimize Your Crew


Listen Later

In one of the most impressive endurance accomplishments of the year, Tara Dower set the overall Fastest Known Time on the 2,000+ mile Appalachian Trail earlier this year in 40 days , 18 hours, and 6 minutes.

It was an attempt that required mental toughness, extensive planning and curiosity, teamwork, and incredible endurance. And in this episode, Tara breaks down her biggest pillars of success as to how she was able to make this accomplishment a reality.

So, if you’re going for an FKT attempt or your next big goal, this is the episode for you!

In this episode, Tara shares how she was able to keep pushing through on the trail (despite all of the obstacles she faced, physically and mentally), how to optimize your crew to dial in a supported FKT attempt, and how to go into strategizing a huge endurance effort.

Huge thank you to Tara for coming on the show!
