Charlie Engle on Running the Sahara

Charlie in New York City

Ever heard an introduction to a talk that was longer than the talk itself? It usually happens when the the emcee can’t quite come up with the right adjectives to sufficiently explain the speaker’s accomplishments. That could easily happen with today’s podcast. But suffice it to say our guest has run across the Sahara—more than 4,500 miles in six countries in 111 days. He’s run across America, and he’ll soon tackle a new challenge. He’s Charlie Engle.

  4. I listened to this one this morning. I’m always amazed at the extremes some people are willing and able to push themselves to. It can be intimidating, I think. All of a sudden ones marathon or 50k achievements seem a lot less noteworthy (speaking just for myself). On the other hand, it’s heartening to keep hearing the elites of endurance sports have the same emotional hurdles during an event to overcome as the rest of us.
