What does it actually take to keep moving when every sensible part of your brain is screaming at you to stop?
In this episode, we sit down with Sean Salmon, Lululemon ambassador and ultrarunner, fresh off one of the most mind-bending endurance efforts you’ll hear about.
Sean started a backyard ultra at 12pm on Saturday. He finished at 2am on Monday morning. In between, he covered 255km, running the same loop again and again, surviving on 8 minutes of sleep across two days.
We unpack what happens when fatigue goes beyond tired and into something else entirely. How the body keeps moving when logic disappears. The mental tricks that keep you in the race. The toll this kind of challenge takes on everyday life, relationships, work, and identity. And why someone would willingly put themselves through something so extreme in the first place.
This is a conversation about endurance, obsession, discipline, and where the real limits actually are. Not just in running, but in life.
If you’ve ever wondered how far the human mind can push the body, this one’s for you.
