The cyclist who raced 2,750km across Africa on almost no sleep: Abdullah Zeinab S3:E1

from How to Be Superhuman · host Red Bull

Abdullah Zeinab’s epic Rhino Run adventure crossing South Africa and Namibia redefines what’s possible in endurance cycling. Unsupported and unforgiving, this gruelling 2,750km ultra cycling race put his mental strength, grit and resilience to the ultimate test through breathtaking but brutal landscapes – where a tiny detail, like a tiny screw, made a world of difference.   In this episode, I talk to the Australian endurance cyclist and winner of the 2019 Trans America Bike Race, whose journey began with an unconventional bike ride to visit his mother. He shares how sleep deprivation, raw determination and facing his deepest fears pushed him beyond his limits – leading him on a journey of self-discovery and transforming his perspective on life.   Follow Abdullah on Instagram If you want to tell us about your own superhuman adventures, message us at [email protected] Head to instagram.com/redbulladventure for more superhuman content
