    She's been such an inspiration of mine!!! From 325 pounds to 6 100 Mile buckles. And now I'm officially an entrant in the 2023 Moab 240 Mile endurance race. Was just a dream 2 years ago I couldn't run a mile. Now 15 a day is reasonable. Through hard work dedication and cutting off everything in your life except the task at hand and setting your emotion to the side. Then the world becomes your playground.

      Damn. Congratulations on all your successes, brother, that’s astonishing to me. I feel like my two young daughters would have to run WITH me for me to be able to find time to put in such an effort as you. That’s amazing. God bless. 🙏🏻

      Hey man. My name is Faruk Garibovic. I ran the Moab 240 last year and DNF at mile 102. I’m doing the race again this year and as I was looking through the entrants, I noticed your name and age. I was the youngest to ever compete in the race, now you are one of the youngest to compete as well. I have a lot of advice for you about the race if you are interested. If not, good luck with the race and looking forward to seeing you in Moab!

      4 months ago I decided I spent enough time watching my wife spend all her free time training and getting the miles in while I stayed at home with our two little boys,
      They need to see mommy do hard things chasing her dreams and they need to know daddy will support them and their mommy in their dreams as best as possible. Now we chase mommy with a double jogging stroller with both them loaded up for 50 to 80 miles a week.
      Anything’s possible, just gotta keep trying !

    Courtney's wild humility. That first 50k went "better than expected". She won the women's race and got 12th overall. So awesome to see such a high performer being so humble.

    Courtney is on another level, I get the impression that when she competes, it’s against herself and the barriers around her. When asked about who’s you biggest competitor, it seems like her answer is me & my barriers…. She’s such an inspiration to me, lace them up and crack on, incremental grains of sand… great interview 🙏🏼

You brought him to those moments very well with your questions and reflections and science 😊 So many great moments, one of them for me is minute 47 - about the way we ‘grow’ will power and how it looks in our brain. I m ‘excited’ to put these ideas into practice in my life. Stay blessed Andrew and David. ❤❤😊

    At my first hearing of this episode I missed your own set goal Cameron for Courtney to win Western States 100, Hardrock 100 and UTMB in one summer 🔥
    And Courtney the Queen of trail running did it 💪💪💪 She‘s unreal dude 🔥🔥🔥 magnificent 🙇‍♂️ She completed it and I‘m pretty sure Courtney wouldn’t brag about it like she behave in this interview 🙏 I think that is because Courtney knows that everybody is capable of it and so in her mind she is nothing special in that regard 😁 For me Courtney is really a big role model how to approach life in general 🔥🔥🔥 Thank you for making this interview Cameron 🔥🔥🔥

    Best interview with her I ever heart. All the correct questions are being brought with great answers although they seem to be avoiding, but instead you get to see how she really evaluates the sport and herself.
    You also just notice that it's more difficult for her to answer with the standard political correct answers because the questions are defined nice with all respect.
    Could be because you also already know each other. Enjoyed every minute!

    Great answer from Courtney! Why should it be only one winner?! I just went to a race where 2 man arrived at finish at same time and stopped to play a game (rock papper ) to decide who finish first. I believe that is an old paradigm of ego , instead of a heart based where 2 or 3 people can be winners at same time. There does not have to be only one first place. Who decided that? What if you have 2 people at same performance? 😊
