The going might get tough, but today's guest is tougher. He's a retired Marine best known for two things. First is his love of service to our country. The other is his larger-than-life resolve to conquer any challenge that may come his way. Captain Eric McElvenny is a veteran turned elite athlete who cannot be beat. His incredible journey took him from a hospital bed to finish lines of the world's most prestigious endurance events. Doing so would be incredible for anyone, but as an amputee…it's nothing short of remarkable. Time and time again he's beaten the odds, proving that with the right mindset, anything is possible.Please check out our YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/DCxgYgtwtJ8Website: https://ericmcelvenny.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericmcelvenny/?hl=en

A single footstep changes all the future steps that an American Marine on patrol in Afghanistan would ever take. After triggering an EID and losing his right leg below the knee, our guest Eric McElvenny turned to uncharted territory - having never completed a single triathlon or even a running event, for that matter, he challenged himself to complete an Ironman. With the help, love, and support from his family, friends, and the Challenged Athletes Foundation, Eric has fought through obstacles, logged thousands of miles, and achieved more than even he thought possible. Did he succeed in finishing an Ironman? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out.

Eric is an endurance athlete living in Pittsburgh, PA. He earned a mechanical engineering degree from the United States Naval Academy while preparing for his service as a Marine Corps Infantry Officer. Eric deployed three times as a Marine and on his final tour, an incredible experience in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, was wounded after stepping on an IED. Eric suffered the amputation of his right leg below the knee, a life-changing opportunity that began his next journey. Faced with a physical challenge and an uncertain future, Eric made a promise to himself to run an Ironman Triathlon. On his journey from the hospital bed in southern California to the finish line in Kona Hawaii, he realized that the challenge and adversity he was up against and the techniques he used to reach the finish line could be used against the challenges we all entertain. When not training, racing and delivering inspiration, Eric can be found with his wife, Rachel, and three children. "It's hard to beat a person who never gives up" Babe Ruth Eric faced and overcame the loss of his leg. He now speaks to and inspires people to embrace their challenges.
