Pat Rodgers is an ultra runner and endurance athlete. In this podcast, we talked about his many adventures over his career (so far) in the world of extreme physical challenges. This includes rock climbing expeditions while in College in France, to taking on the challenge of a solo kayak around the entire island of Ireland, attempting to climb Aconcagua in South America, to completing the Kerry Way 120 Mile run, the UTMB (which I learned during the podcast is the Ultra Trail Mount Blanc), and many other challenges along the way.We focused a good section of the conversation around his most recent event, the Spine Race in the UK, where Pat completed the 268 mile race along the Pennines in January. This took 7 days to complete and is fascinating to hear how Pat planned it, endured it and completed it. He shared the journey and provided some great takeaways in this episode around motivation, pushing through pain, facing and overcoming the infamous Wall! Pat’s message is a clear one - don’t limit yourself or put up
