Does the Great Canadian Death Race sound like a fun experience? What about running 250 kilometers through a piping-hot desert? Endurance sport is definitely not for the faint-hearted, and Charles Miron has a stronger heart (and mind) than most. From a young age, Charles was inspired by the endurance athletes he saw on television, and after smashing his first marathon with hardly any training, he realized he likely had an innate ability to push himself beyond the barriers that most people cannot overcome. His secret? It’s all mental. In this episode, Charles talks about some of the most memorable moments from the ultra-marathons and triathlons he has done over the years, and the valuable lessons he has learned through these experiences. No matter what you think your pain threshold is, you’ll finish this episode feeling motivated to take on a whole new level of challenge!
