Episode Synopsis

In this episode, I got to interview a great friend of mine. Mike Wells isn’t the typical diehard Mountain Biker I usually sit down with, however, he does ride, and his main sport of endurance trail running has taught him many important lessons that we Mountain Bikers can draw parallels from, and use to better our mental game out in the trails.Mike is a lifelong lover of learning and has an incredible way of articulating his insights from the trail, and packaging them up to use in his other sports which are Mountain Biking and Rock Climbing.We talk about the incredible highs, lows, and sometimes strange places his mind has taken him through various failures, successes, and experiences out on the trail.Having just completed the Whistler Alpine Meadows which is a mind-boggling 160 km race with over 9000m of elevation gain which he completed over 38 hours straight. We break down what it took to get there, and how many of his ‘perceived’ failures in the past actually set him up perfectly to truly experience the success of finishing this race.It’s my hope that the topics discussed in this conversation are able to broaden your lens, and help stimulate positive growth in your mental game, whatever the sport is that you use as a vehicle for personal growth, and enjoyment!
