The Tim Ferriss Show

Description

Joe De Sena is the co-founder of The Death Race, Spartan Race (1M+ competitors), and more. Among other things, he has personally completed the famously grueling Iditarod dogsledding race...by FOOT. What about the Badwater Ultramarathon, Vermont 100, and Lake Placid Ironman? He did all of those in ONE WEEK. The man is a maniac, but he's also strategic and tactical. This episode covers his story, as well as his approaches to grit, endurance, and building empires. *** If you enjoy the podcast, would you please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes? It takes less than 60 seconds, and it really makes a difference in helping to convince hard-to-get guests. I also love reading the reviews! For show notes and past guests, please visit tim.blog/podcast. Sign up for Tim’s email newsletter (“5-Bullet Friday”) at tim.blog/friday.
