The surprising psychology of extreme endurance racers 🎙️ With Jeffrey Weiss

from Limitless: Biohacking Brainpower, Health, Personal Growth & Beyond

Think of your grandest goals - in your career, in business, in your creative or artistic expression, and with your family - it's my contention that whatever you endeavor to do in life, you're not honoring those goals sufficiently if you are not regularly challenging your body. For our minds rot when our bodies go unchallenged.I interview a man who has taken THAT to the extreme and arrived at a surprising mindset takeaway - which we'll share at the end of this podcast. Jeffrey Weiss, an Ironman, triathlete, and ultramarathoner - pushing through grueling 20-hour night races - at 63 years old. And in all his free time, he's an attorney and author. He sent me his new book, Racing against Time: On Ironman, Ultramarathons, and the Quest for Transformation in Midlife.2:42 Thoughts on "Racing Against Time"4:21 On winning vs finishing8:37 13 years of endurance racing14:01 Endurance and flowstate16:23 Endurance racing biohacks26:12 Biohacking cold shock29:44 Mantras for motivation32:03 The endurance racing diet40:29 Time management42:55 Comrades UltraMarathon in South Africa50:36 On good coaching54:24 On multi-year goals56:54 On inevitable injuries1:00:11 The motivation to race1:15:00 The mindset take-away from "Racing Against Time"Read 📑 Everything mentioned herehttps://www.limitlessmindset.com/podcast/1723-jeffrey-weissOrder 🛒 Bookhttps://www.jeffreyweissauthor.com/booksConfused?Clarity is a confidential VOIP call away - book an illuminating and edifying 45-minute Biohacking/Lifehacking consultation with mehttps://www.limitlessmindset.com/breakthrough-consultationJoin the Limitless Mindset Newsletterhttps://www.limitlessmindset.com/newsletterSupport My WorkLimitless Mindset Storehttps://store.limitlessmindset.com/Limitless Mindset Substack ($7/monthly)https://jonathanroseland.substack.com/My bookshttps://www.limitlessmindset.com/jr-booksDonate cryptocurrencyhttps://www.limitlessmindset.com/support#cryptocurrencyConnect with Jonathanon Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/limitlessmindseton Twitterhttp://twitter.com/jroselandon Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/roselandjonathan/on Mindshttps://www.minds.com/jroselandon Odyseehttps://odysee.com/$/invite/@jroseland:fon Telegramhttps://t.me/limitlessjrI'm not a doctor, medical professional, or trained therapist. I'm a researcher and pragmatic biohacking practitioner exercising free speech to share evidence as I find it.
