I didn't reach my athletic peak until I was 43.
I didn't write my first book until I was 44.
I didn't start my podcast until I was 45.
At 30, I thought my life was over.
At 52 I know it's just beginning.
Keep running. Never give up. And watch your kite soar.

“ and I’d like to think that, maybe, me losing both my legs was medicine to someone else”. Powerful words. Great episode @richroll & inspiring Cedric King https://t.co/UKmiTgnFF9
You get better during recovery, not during training.
Whoop founder Will Ahmed says the very best athletes (the 1% of the 1% of the 1%) are obsessed with the 20 hours a day outside practice. For a healthy weekend warrior, raising HRV 5 to 10% in a year is a big win.

In honor of the great Sir Patrick Stewart, I'll share my favorite clip of him, from the Rich Roll Podcast. Link to the full interview: https://t.co/qOoc61781f
During the NYC Marathon, I had the honor of running support for Cedric King, who lost both legs to an IED in Afghanistan. He found a new gear and set a personal best for the course. Today, he's on the pod to unpack the whole journey. Streaming now.
The fitness world is so dumb. Now they're going to swing in the other direction.
This is the key for 99% of health.
Lots of easy, some moderate, a bit of hard, every once in a while go see God. Lift something.
If you're short on time, you have to compensate with more moderate/hard.
Just wrapped up Finding Ultra by @richroll! 📖🏃♂️
Pretty cool timing considering he just ran the NYC Marathon this past weekend!
A powerful story about sobriety, endurance, and discovering what you’re truly capable of.
One of my favorite takeaways: There are no finish lines.
Definitely recommend adding this one to your reading list!

On the summit of Everest, Jim Morrison scattered the ashes of his late partner, Hilaree Nelson. Then he became the first person to ski Everest’s direct North Face, a journey captured in the new film “Everest: The Other Side.” Today on the pod, Jim shares from the heart. This one will make you want to go hug your people. Go give it a listen.
I had the best day on the best day to be in the best city in the world—supporting double amputee Cedric King across the finish line at the NYC marathon.
A celebration of turning 60, Sunday was my first attempt at a new relationship with endurance. To use it not for ego driven reasons but as an opportunity to be of service.
If you want a big life, make it about something much larger than yourself.
That is my experience. That was my experience this past weekend—a marathon of a day that became a peak life experience I won’t soon forget.
My message is this: I get getting after your goals. Be determined to turn your dreams into three-dimensional reality. But do your best to tether them to bettering others. Transcend the ego’s attachment to external validation and you will be rewarded with a purpose-driven life of profound and deep meaning.
Why I don’t give a shit about the algorithm: this article does a decent job of explaining my entrepreneurship journey and digital creator philosophy (lifted/based upon my recent appearance on the Masters of Scale podcast). https://t.co/ecV88tauNo
New adventure today guiding double amputee vet Cedric King at the NYC Marathon. Grateful to be toeing the start line in service to this inspirational gentleman. Bib 17472. LFG
Patrick Stewart once spoke about regretting the things he never said to his family and how he learned to embrace vulnerability later in life.
“I wish I could go back.”
Some of his most personal words now carry an even heavier weight. Rest in peace, Sir Patrick Stewart. 🕊️
Patrick Stewart says his biggest regret is the things he never said to the people he loved and not being vulnerable sooner.
“Being brave, being open, being sensitive to other people, tuning into them, becomes more and more important to me.”
He regrets the things he never got to say to his family.
“I wish I could go back, There are things I would like to say to my parents and my brothers that I never said. That makes me very, very sad.”
He’s learned the power of vulnerability.
“Being vulnerable is the primary objective in my life now, with those I care about.”
Rip patrick Stewart 🕊️🤦🏽♂️
Rest in peace, Sir Patrick Stewart.
In a recent interview, he shared a personal experience of occasionally hearing voices, which he thoughtfully interpreted as a connection with the afterlife, and expressed a sincere hope of witnessing further developments around reported UFO phenomena.
