His latest book, came out in February of 2018, is ENDURE: Mind, Body, and the Curiously Elastic Limits of Human Performance.
He lives in the same neighbourhood as me in Toronto, but is sadly too fast for me to run with!
In this episode we talk about:How Alex improved his PB in the 1,500 meters when he had been stuck at the same time for years! This is a crazy story, which you’re gonna love.

Pain tolerance. How the heck do pro athletes and Olympians push through pain and ways you can push your self more than you thought was possible.

What we can learn from Olympian about the common cold and some rules for you to decide whether you should run or not when you’ve come down with something.
