Sinopse

We talk with Andy Weinberg, the co-founder of The Endurance Society, a small Vermont based adventure company which produces extreme races for adventure seekers and endurance enthusiasts.  There are a wide variety of events from backcountry first aid, snowshoe, skiing, trail running (ultra distance), adventure racing, and long distance trekking. We talk with Andy about these various events - which are really a series of life changing experiences - and also discuss his athletic exploits, which include hundreds of races across various disciplines. He's competed in ultramarathons from 50k to 100 miles and beyond, and in triathlons from Ironman to Double IM, Triple, and Quintuple IM. Yes, that's 5 iron-distance triathlons completed in continuous format (12 miles of swimming, 560 miles of cycling, 131 miles of running).  We have a lot of fun in this interview!
