For this one, I just pressed record and talked about of my experience running 250km self-sufficient through the Sahara Desert the week before last. I go briefly into everything I did with my training, food and mindset before the event and then all the ridiculous and life-changing moments during and after my time in the Sahara. This episode goes through the highs and the lows. I’ve talked everything from avoiding snakes and scorpions on the long day (86 km), seeing people hooked up to IV’s and puking blood to cutting away the steel poles holding our tent to try and survive a sandstorm (side note: I’ll never take having a roof and four walls for granted ever again!). I hope you enjoy this one. This episode is dedicated to my MDS tent mates Simon, Johnny, Paddy, Hugh, Fergal and Pete who all played a huge role in helping me get to the finish line.

Dave and Steve are identical twins, better known as The Happy Pear. On top of running an incredibly successful health food vegan business; they are also best-selling authors who live and embrace an incredible lifestyle of health, wellness and happiness in general.  

 

This podcast is amazing! We talk everything from their semi-pro background in rugby and travelling the world as hippies (their words, not mine) and how opening up a small vegetable shop started it all. We also delve into everything from vegan lifestyle, mediation, and wellness to morning rituals (swim rising) and handstand workouts!  I hope you all enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it.

I know for a fact it would help them out as it has helped me but their cynicism of stoicism and "self-help" books gets in the way. I'd appreciate it if you kept this question anonymous. 11:27
