It's been a minute. I recap my trip to Florida. Despite my absolute love for where I used to live, I realized this week I can't go back. But, it will be a nice place to visit. Running on a beach is not what I remembered and it is dang hot. I've signed up for the Big Bend 20K in January, which will be an adventure. Just catching up.

In this episode, Jamie has a conversation with Joe Barrett, a fellow ultra-endurance athlete from New Jersey who also has Parkinson's disease. They became friends last fall when Jamie saw a post from Joe about how he had attempted to run the Moab 240, one of the toughest ultra-distance running events in the world. Though they have never met in person, Joe and Jamie share a lot of commonalities that are highlighted in this conversation. Both Jamie and Joe have Young-Onset Parkinson's Disease (YOPD) and share a passion for extreme endurance challenges like Ironman, and ultra-marathon events. In this conversation, they discuss their experiences participating in these events. They talk about the mental challenges they faced during these events and the importance of positive mindset and perseverance. Joe highlights the importance of a positive mindset, supportive friends, and finding the right doctor to help navigate the challenges of living with Parkinson's disease as a young active person. Joe expresses his determination to face challenges head-on, both in his running endeavors and in dealing with Parkinson's disease. He believes in the power of mindset and the importance of perseverance in overcoming obstacles. Despite their condition, both Jamie and Joe maintain an active lifestyle and a positive attitude towards managing their YOPD.

Gentlemen, we are privileged to have not one but TWO incredible human beings with us today. My guests are an inspirational father-son duo, Travis Macy, and his father, Mark "Mace" Macy. For those that don't know, Travis and Mark are legendary endurance athletes. Travis has finished more than 130 ultra-endurance events in 17 countries. And his Dad, Mace, spent thirty years competing in Colorado and around the world in ultra-endurance competitions and is one of the few who have finished all eight Eco-Challenge events. Their secret? The Ultra Mindset - a relentless determination that refuses to bow to any obstacle.  When Mark was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, Travis and his Dad decided to take on the challenge of Eco-Challenge Fiji together - a grueling seven-day, 400-mile marathon of trekking, climbing, biking, and paddling through the jungle - for one final race together, to prove that anything is possible with family by your side. In their new book, A Mile at a Time, Travis and Mace weave together excerpts from Mace's passionate personal journals alongside a first-person narrative by Travis, telling the story of their incredible journey and what they learned along the way. Their story is one of courage, determination, and above all, love. It's a reminder that in the face of adversity, the ties that bind us give us strength and much more. In our conversation, you'll learn: Strategies for fostering resilience and mental fortitude. How to cultivate a sense of unity and teamwork within your family. How the “Ultra Mindset” can help as you juggle between training, family, and mental health. Some of my favorite moments of the conversation: The deep bond between Travis and Mark and their shared love for endurance racing. Choosing love, happiness, and hope. How to fight for your family's future and enjoy quality time in the present.  The benefits of exercise and being in nature has on your mental health. Embracing adversity as a catalyst to greater resilience and self-assuredness. Mace's mantra, “It's all good training.” Insights for those dealing with Alzheimer's.  The comfort of having someone besides you who'll always have your back.

Marcus Smith is a renowned ultra athlete and coach who recently helped 2 of his athletes set the UK Backyard Ultra Records for male and female, with showings of 89 hours (370 miles) and 35 hours (145 miles) respectively. But that is just the tip of the iceberg. While training to set a cycling world record in 2018, Marcus had a nearly fatal collision with a truck that resulted in a shattered shoulder, 7 broken ribs, and punctured lung. Rather than embrace a victim mindset, Marcus took control of his recovery, placing gratitude and intention at the forefront of his lifestyle, and continued living life to the fullest as evidenced by his seemingly never-ending string of accomplishments. Take us on your long run to listen as we chat with Marcus about what he has learned, the 4 principles of The Ultra Mindset, and how you can incorporate his training secrets to dominate your next Backyard Ultra. Be sure to follow him on Instagram at @mjd_smith and check out his website at www.mjdsmith.com where you can find the book list we mention in our discussion.

This week, we brought him back with his dad, Mark “Mace” Macy, a 30-year veteran of ultra endurance competitions, who has continued to thrive since his early-onset Alzheimer's diagnosis in 2018. Together, they authored the book A Mile at a Time, which tells the story of how Travis and Mace conquered the World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji and how Mace has tapped into his inner strength to deal with his disease.  Mace is a retired attorney and grandfather. He's a well-known athlete in the endurance sports world, pioneering ultra running in the 1980s and adventure racing in the ‘90s. In 2020 he became the only person to compete in an Eco-Challenge race after having been diagnosed with Alzheimer's. In this episode, we talked about Mace's story, resilience with Alzheimer's, having the courage to show up in life and maintaining hope and optimism.

When she was 19, Pam Chapman-Markle was told cancer would take her life within 6 months. She beat cancer. Whatever came her way in life, she chose to take circumstance and make the outcome conform to her will. When she discovered ultramarthon running, she already had the mindset to keep going, no matter what. She's run some of the world's toughest ultramarathons and isn't finished yet. 

Sure Travis Macy wrote the book "The Ultra Mindset", but he is so much more! I loved the energy Travis brought to the conversation. His exuberance can be found in whatever he does. His list of athletic accomplishments range across a variety of sports and I could not begin to do him justice in listing those here. His love for his family and care for his father really struck a chord with me. I strive to be what Travis embodies, and that is a loving father, son, athlete, and everything else he does with the conviction and passion that is driven by his love for life and others! Thank you for this conversation Travis! It meant more to me than I can express!   MR Runningpains (Aaron's) information: If you'd like to learn more about Patreon or to donate, please visit https://www.patreon.com/MRRunningpains My Socials, Channels, & Newsletter: https://www.facebook.com/MRRUNNINGPAINSEVENTS/ https://www.instagram.com/mrrunningpains/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ6J512qA34z_N0KJSU4jfw https://www.strava.com/athletes/18431982  To sign up for my Newsletter -https://www.mrrunningpains.com Email - runningpains@gmail.com Thanks to all of you for listening!

Roles shift on this unique episode when mountain biking and adventure racing legend Rebecca Rusch interviews Travis about his book, The Ultra Mindset. This interview was part of last year's Basecamp cycling program: www.joinbasecamp.com (use code REBECCA50 for $50 off this year's program). For free, public rides on Zwift this winter with Rebecca, check out https://www.joinbasecamp.com/ridewithliv; Travis will try to ride most of these, too.

Middle of October, I was glued for 4 days to a Facebook Live stream from Bell Buckle, Tennessee, following Big Dog's Backyard Ultra, one of the craziest ultra trail running races in the world.Different from a traditional start to finish race, “Big's” does not have a finish line. Instead, all race contenders must start a loop of the course at every full hour. If they manage to get around the 6.7056 km / 4 miles 880 feet long loop in less than 60 minutes, the remainder of the hour can be used for resting, refueling, running to the toilets, or even sleeping. The race winner is the participant, who manages to complete one more round than the second last contender.For Morten Klingenberg, aka Løbetossen / Run Crazy, the trip from Denmark to the Big's Backyard Ultra World Championships was a big step up to the world stage and only his second race outside of his native country.As a trail running enthusiast, albeit a slow one, I couldn't have been more excited getting Morten on the show, talking about running with the “big dogs,” and developing the ultimate ultra mindset.For complete show notes, all relevant links and more cool content, go to Life-Sparring.com

He is now the owner of Inner Fight Gym in Dubai. In 2018 whilst on a training bike ride Marcus was hit by a truck at 65kmph. He talks about the moment where he had a out of body experience and that he could have easily given up. I asked him why didn't you die? His response was  "I wanted to live more then I wanted to die and when you want to live that much you are just willing to fight". Which he did for hours before finally reaching a hospital and with hours and hour, thousands and thousands of repetitions he rebuilt his body. It is truly incredible what Marcus has done since the accident from 30 marathons in 30 days to running a trail race on the Vulvic Volcano in France just 4 months after the accident.

What do we do when we can’t figure things out? What do we do when things get hard in life physically or mentally? Some of us deny it’s happening and try and continue as normal. Others give up. Neither seem to solve the issues we face. To get through, keep going and reach our goals we must have a solid decision making process, a formula for success……welcome to the ultra mindset! I was not dissimilar to the two options above in that when I came across adversity I would try and black it out, pretend it was not happening or in a way just give up thinking that “it’s not for me”. When I entered my first ultra and failed I knew this mindset had to change so I went on a journey to figure out a decision making process that would help me in tough situations in many areas of life. I share the process in this show in the Ultra Mindset. I hope it’s useful for you. No Weakness. Marcus Insta: What do we do when we can’t figure things out?

Ultrarunning father & son Travis & Mark Macy were excited about the return of  Eco-Challenge Fiji and planned to race - Travis on a younger competitive team, Mark on team "Stray Dogs."  Plans changed after learning 66-year-old endurance racer Mark Macy was facing Alzheimer's.  He’d won the grueling Iditashoe 100-mile snowshoe race and competed in 9 Eco-challenges - but this race would pose a special challenge, but also unique rewards.  Joe De Sena, a veteran endurance racer himself, trades tales with Travis and Mark about eco-challenge and about their last meeting when we interviewed Travis about his book "The Ultra Mindset."   LESSONS Make time for family Sometimes the risk of avoiding the challenge is greater than the risks the challenge poses.

This week I am very excited and honored to welcome back life long mountain athlete, endurance coach, adventure racer, ultrarunner, family man, and all around incredible human being Travis Macy!! He's on the show to share all sorts of stories, wisdom, and inspiration as part of Team Endure in the most recent Eco Challenge, the monumental multi-day adventure race across Fiji. Not only was this race epic in all sense of the word but it also holds a special place in his heart since he experienced it with his father Mark, a legendary veteran endurance racer who was recently diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's. Watching Team Endure on Amazon's "World's Toughest Race" was emotional, touching, inspiring, and completely empowering. Travis and his dad have a special bond and it was really refreshing to these two and their team take on this adventure. They truly embrace the concept of endure, pushing forward with a positive attitude despite any obstacles thrown their way, both in racing and in life. Watching their race, listening to Travis, embracing the Ultra Mindset will leave you empowered and I sincerely hope that's what you take away from this podcast. Thanks for listening!!

I first met Travis Macy over a year ago when we did our first podcast together. Travis is the author of The Ultra Mindset and has spent the better part of his life competing at the highest level of various adventure races and extreme competitions. He was just getting into hunting at the time but […]

We hit the Enchanted Forest Trail outside of Golden, Colo., with adventure racer and endurance coach Travis Macy. Macy is a longtime endurance adventure racer who has participated in more than 120 events across the globe. In 2013, he set a new course record for the Leadman race series. In 2015, he published his first book, The Ultra Mindset.

Scott Lehman discusses his upcoming return to the Leadville Trail 100 this summer following a failed attempt at the same ultra marathon last year. He specifically speaks about how significant the mental game is for athletes and how he has found some new strategies to work with this time around.

Finisher of over 120 ultra endurance events in 17 countries, Travis Macy is a speaker, author, coach, and professional endurance athlete. He is the author of The Ultra Mindset: An Endurance Champion's 8 Core Principles for Success in Business, Sports, and Life, and he set a previous record for Leadman, an epic endurance event consisting of a trail running marathon, 50-mile mountain bike race, Leadville 100 Mountain Bike Race, 10k road run, and Leadville 100 Run, all above 10,200' in the Rocky Mountains. Travis lives with his wife and two young children in the mountains around Evergreen, Colorado. A former classroom teacher with a Master's degree in Education, Travis works with his speaking and consulting clients in advance and tailors his interactive, engaging talks to individual audiences according to best practices for teaching and learning.

Travis is an experienced adventure athlete who has participated (and won) a wide variety of events . He's competed in elite adventure races all around the world, 100 mile ultra marathons and ultra endurance mountain biking events. He is also the author of the Ultra Mindset one of the best books I've read about motivation and mental techniques that will not only help you be successful as an athlete, but will be useful in your everyday life. In this episode, we chat about how he embraces the Ultra Mindset. We also touch on a wide variety of topics like hunting, parenting, adventure racing and how he survived Leadman (competing in every ultra endurance event in Leadville, CO in one summer). If you enjoy this episode check out Travis's website for information about his coaching and be sure to read his excellent book the Ultra Mindset. Thanks for listening!! (P.S.- My computer messed up and accidentally deleted the last 15 minutes of the conversation....I'm super disappointed this happened and spent the afternoon trying to get it back....Super bummed because Travis is such an interesting guy and shared such amazing advice.....On the plus side, this might mean I'll have an excuse to hang out with him again!)

When it comes to ultra-distance racing, what is more important: Grit or fitness? Endurance athlete Travis Macy chats with Drew about what it takes to overcome challenges on the trail, and in life.

Travis Macy is best known as the record-setting champion of Leadman—“a sort of six-week Grand Prix of Ultra Endurance” that consists of a jaw-dropping number of challenges. This book is a fun look at the eight principles that make up the Ultra Mindset Travis uses to do extraordinary things. Big Ideas we explore include: Your new mantra, what to do when you don’t feel like it, thinking about thinking, making the choice to give up choice, and never quitting… except when you should quit (w/a great litmus test for when you should/shouldn’t quit).

On this episode, Adam is joined by ultra-distance athlete extraordinaire Travis Macy. Travis has raced professionally around the world in just about every ultra-endurance discipline you can think of…but this podcast is not about training and endurance. This podcast is about mindset. Travis recently released his first book, THE ULTRA MINDSET, and on this show Adam and Travis dive into the lessons, techniques, and habits Travis has learned and codified over his years competing at the highest level in endurance sports. Whether you’re looking to elevate your game in life, career, business, relationships, sports, and yes even hunting, Travis’ book is an approachable and entertaining read that serves as invaluable resource for helping you achieve those goals. On top of this, Travis is also a newly obsessed hunter, so Adam and Travis also spend some time talking about the parallels between the endurance world and the hunting world. These two communities and pursuits are far more connected than you may think! With 2018 fast approaching this is a timely podcast for setting your goals and putting plans in motion for next year!

In this episode we go over our Canadian Thanksgiving weekend adventure where Chris ran and Morgan biked 50 Km (31 miles) from Kingston to Westport, Ontario! This was Chris's first ultra distance run and Morgan's longest bike ride in some time. Oh, and it was pouring rain...so that made things slightly more soggy than originally planned. In Part 2 we review two UK exclusive flavors of Nakd bars (Carrot Cake and Peanut Delight). As we do every week in Part 3 we go over our fears of the week. Morgan will be facing down the dreaded peanut butter and jelly sandwich and Chris talks about what happens when staying in your comfort zone conflicts with your goals.

"The further we go the better we get" forteller Travis Macy når jeg spør han om hvilke mantra han bruker når han har lyst til å gi opp I dagens episode har jeg vært så heldig å prate Travis Macy som har fullført over 130+ ultraendurance løp i 17 land. Han er foredragsholder, forfatter, trener og en profesjonell utholdenhets-utøver.

Han forteller selv hvordan han takler småbarns-livet, utfordringer på jobb osv. Link til hans online kurs her Vi er innom følgende tema: Bruke hindere som en perfekt anledning for mentaltrening Velge smerte viktigheten av forpliktelse Historiene vi forteller oss selv når vi har lyst til å gi opp Ingen er perfekte Hvordan endre historien du forteller deg selv Skifte fra Hva til Hvorfor Hva er ingen hyggelig tanke Hvordan overkomme en kropp som har lyst til å gi opp Hvordan du kan bruke perspektiv til å mestre nye ting Mantra for å overkomme utfordringer Kosthold og søvnmønster Med mer

 Travis is an internationally acclaimed endurance athlete who has competed in some of the World's most grueling events. like the Leadville 100 and Eco Challenge Adventure Race etc. Gleaning from the lessons of his career as an endurance athlete he wrote "The Ultra Mindset" which embodies the OFM mental game.  This gave Travis the critical thinking skills to recognize the signs that the effects of performing physical activities at a high level by fueling them with massive amounts of carbohydrates were becoming significant detriments to his health and performance. Last year Travis made the switch and is here today to share his views, strategies and results from making the fundamental shift back to "fat is fuel" the OFM way!  Join Travis, Peter & Naomi for an uplifting conversation on his personal OFM transformation.

Travis Macey is the author of the book, The Ultra Mindset.  He's is a competitive adventure racer and ultra marathon runner.  This a great interview that covers a variety of topics.  

Travis Macy, an avid ultrarunner, wrote The Ultra Mindset after he learned a valuable lesson himself. He was working to become a school principal, a respectable position and by all means a sensible decision, but stopped in his tracks to write the book. Pushing forward in the wrong direction for the wrong reasons would’ve left Macy unfulfilled. Raw perseverance without deep purpose is not enough. Lucky for us, Macy channeled his mental toughness into the right endeavor and he shares a number of strategies for you to do the same in this podcast.  Lessons:1.When things get tough it’s helpful to focus on why you’re doing something and not on the drudgery of the task.2.Training is equally important for developing a strong mind as it is for getting fit.3.Quitting is okay when you find yourself on a path that doesn’t align with your values, but if you are on the right path, don’t give up.

Sarah and I sit down with The Ultra Mindset – An Endurance Champion’s 8 Core Principles for Success in Business, Sports, and Life (Lifelong Books) author Travis Macy to learn how we can apply what we know as ultrarunners to our every day lives.  Though Travis is an experienced endurance athlete and … The post Travis Macy – The Ultra Mindset appeared first on Ultrarunnerpodcast.com.

Travis Macy, professional ultra-endurance athlete, coach, teacher, husband and father of two joins us to talk about his new book, "The Ultra Mindset: An Endurance Champion's 8 Core Principles for Success in Business, Sports and Life".  This book is a set of simple principles for daily life that includes embracing fear, rewriting the stories we tell ourselves, and mastering the art of asking for help. "We constantly send our kids -and ourselves- the message that if you struggle something is wrong.  If you're doing something right, it will feel nice and easy; it will be fun.  Struggle should be halted as soon as possible at all times because it will probably lead to suffering and, even worse, failure.  The problem with the message above is that it flies in the face of what we know to be the truth about learning and general process, namely, that if you never struggled, growth is almost impossible because lack of growth only shows complacency with in a comfort zone." - The Ultra Mindset The book is available at most book outlets including Amazon and available to listen on Audible.

Travis Macy is best known as; “The Guy who won the Leadman Ultra Endurance Event”. Travis is a professional adventure racer, ultra-marathonrunner, coach and motivational speaker. We speak about his newly released book: “The Ultra Mindset” a book that serves as a guide to 8 key principles to becoming successful in sport, business and life. He delivers powerful self-help messages such as; “When you have no choice, anything is possible”.  This is a great interview for anyone who is in search of success.
