In 2016, Adam ran 2,500 miles over the course of 60 days to cross the USA on foot. Subsequently, in November of 2016, he successfully completed a 60-day journey alone in the wilderness of South America to become winner of Discovery Channel's survivalist show, The Wheel. Following that adventure, Adam set two prominent Fastest Known Times (FKTs): in 2017 he became part of the first duo to ever run self-supported on foot across Great Britain (Scotland, England and Wales) while summiting the highest peak in each country along the way; and in 2020, he set the supported FKT on the Tahoe Rim Trail—a 171-mile circumnavigation of Lake Tahoe.  Most recently in 2025, Adam finished 4th overall and ran one of the Top-10 fastest times ever at the historic Badwater 135.  Adam's life mission is to push himself past his perceived limits and achieve the impossible. His calling is to share what he has learned and help others grow in their journey so as to push through the ceiling and achieve their own 'impossible'.Please note that this podcast is created strictly for educational purposes and should never be used for medical diagnosis or treatment.Connect w/ Adam: IG: www.instagram.com/adamkimble818/Web: adamkimble.com/Mentioned:Listen to NR Episode #81 with Adam Kimble: nutritional-revolution.com/podcasts/ultrarunner-and-coach-adam-kimble/hDrop Sweat Testing: https://hdroptech.com/ref/83/Maurten Gels on The Feed: https://thefeed.com/teams/nutritional-revolutionPrecision Hydration Electrolyte Capsules: https://amzn.to/3H1AitGNeverSecond Drink Mix: https://amzn.to/4kZWthGLiquid IV: https://amzn.to/3U3kedHIce Bandana: https://amzn.to/4moCZ7HArm Sleeves: https://amzn.to/40DVDA2Run Gum: https://amzn.to/4flD4XqMORE NRApply to work with Kyla → https://p.bttr.to/3ZrwzcFUse code NEWPOD10 for 10% off our meal plans → https://nutritional-revolution.com/products/CONNECT Instagram → www.instagram.com/nutritionalrevolutionSponsorship inquiries → [email protected] in having your biomarkers or nutrigenomics checked?
