Categories:

This week on the podcast we are joined by 2 time world record holder and endurance cyclist Mark Beaumont. Mark is well known for his impressive endurance cycling feats with his most recent expedition being an around the planet cycle in 78 days, where he broke 2 world records in the process. That is an average of 240 miles per day for 78 consecutive days. Mark shares how he prepares his body physically and mentally for the expeditions he takes on. He also shares some of the many lessons he has learned throughout his challenges, like the time he and a team of fellow rowers attempted to row across the Atlantic Ocean and capsized for several hours before being rescued by a passing ship.
