IV 015 | Mark Satkiewicz

INNERVOICE with Travis McKenzie

Today’s episode is a conversation I had with Mark Satkiewicz, the co-founder of SBT GRVL an exciting new cycling event planned for this Summer in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Mark is an avid endurance athlete and is the former CEO of Smartwool.

As you’ll hear during our call 1 year ago to the day, Mark experienced the most impactful moment of his life. During an easy recovery ride close to his former home in LA, Mark suffered a sudden cardiac arrest.

Given a small chance of recovery and an uncertain long term prognosis, Mark’s world was turned upside down, he acknowledges the mental impact it had on him and is also grateful that his survival has helped him recalibrate what’s important in his life. Mark is an inspiring figure to many, myself included and gives some amazing insight into his career as a C-level executive as well as the details of what is certain to set the SBT GRVL event apart, even as a first year event.

We talk about what could be a marketing case study in the way SBT GRVL enrolled influential athletes to help spread the word about the race, including InnerVoice alumni Ted and Laura King and Amity Rockwell.
