Listen now
Description
Our guest this week, Greg McDermott [@gregmcdermottcoach] puts the endure in endurance. He's tackled some of the longest and toughest challenges in his home country, Australia - including a 14,000km bike ride and the infamous Ultraman Australia (a 3-day event with a 10km swim, 420km bike ride & a double marathon of 84.4kms). But he wasn't always this endurance monster that we see today. His journey started only about 6 years ago in a time where he used food and alcohol to battle unhappiness and depression. It's been a rather fast journey from his start to where he is now. But, as you will hear in the podcast, he's learned a lot along the way and shares his experiences profoundly in this episode - filled with tons of messages. Now, as a coach, he believes anyone can have the kind of transformation he's had as long as you have a solid plan, the right goals, the desire, the accountability, and a strong team of people around you. - Show Notes: https://www.humansoftriathlon.com/hotpodcast-greg - Podcast Feedback Survey (Please take 5 minutes to leave us your honest feedback on the show - totally anonymous): http://bit.ly/hotpodcastsurvey - Hosts: Swapneel Chouhan, Robin Mayall, & Carlos (Charles) Galan - Intro/Outro Music: Produced by Vasil Zguri at SoundPulse
