Truett Hanes: the hybrid athlete known for world-record pull-ups, sub-2:30 marathons (and running them in jeans) joins the podcast to dive deep into his audacious “Olympic Trials or Die Tryin’” journey. Aiming to drop from ~2:29 to the elite 2:16 qualifying time for the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials, Truett opens up about the relentless mindset fueling his training, the mix of hype and hate from followers, and learning to reinvent yourself amid support and criticism. Cam and Truett talk about gatekeeping in running, family/friend support, and the beautiful agony of purposeful suffering - drawing inspiration from explorer Tom Hunt's quest to the South Pole. Truett shares his thoughts on chasing purpose, thoughts on hiring a coach, and assigning real meaning to big goals.
