In this episode I talk with one of the most remarkable guys I have ever had the pleasure of meeting, Craig Percival. Craig has just completed something that has never been even attempted before let alone completed. He has completed 8 full distance Ironman Triathlons, in the 8 states/territories of Australia in 8 days. WOW. My head still shakes even thinking about this undertaking. He has completed well over 20 Ironman Triathlons and has competed at the Ironman World Championships on 4 occasions. He has completed Ultraman Canada, qualified for and finished a remarkable second at the Ultraman World Championships in Hawaii. Craig's message is simple and along the lines of a great sporting brand you may have heard of......JUST DO IT. Get up and get through the first 10 minutes of the training session, the race or even just the day and the rest will make itself happen. His other key message to take away from our conversation is to find YOUR WHY?? His drive and determination to inspire others to achieve their goals can be seen in the flesh with his very own coaching business, www.nolimitsendurance.com.au. Craig's support and care for his athletes is second to none and the results his athletes achieve speak for themselves. If you are looking for an amazing coaching experience to elevate you to the next level get in contact with him. Throughout the 8in8in8 he raised well over A$80,000 for the John Maclean Foundation, an awesome organisation that aims to make the lives of young Australians who use wheelchairs. John himself came out and supported the event right through and I was honoured to be able to have a chat with him and the amazing work he does with young Australians. www.jmf.com.au Thanks to the Shaun and the team at Temple Nutrition who look after all my racing, training and nutritional needs.

Friday Fat Black Episode 23 - Swimming with Craig Percival In this FFB, Pete and I get the pleasure of speaking with Craig Percival about swimming, the common mistakes and some very simple tips to help you get out of the water faster and in better shape. I've know Craig for a number of years through Aquashop and being around Iornman expos but wanted to get him on our podcast after seeing some success his had with athletes and especially in the swim discipline. I'm talking wholesale changes in swim times and this is what perked my ears up. Craig is not only a very good swimmer himself (now holds the 10k swim record at Ultraman Canada including days 1 and 2) but also a very good coach too. It's a cracking episode. Enjoy. We'd love it if you are getting enjoyment and great advice from our podcasts if you could give us a 5-Star rating and review on iTunes we'd be forever grateful.
