📍Ultra-endurance athlete Jeff Garmire joins Navy SEAL David Rutherford to break down one of the most insane physical and mental feats ever attempted — a record-setting, unsupported 2,200-mile speed run of the Appalachian Trail in 45 days, 8 hours, and 37 minutes.

Jeff reveals:
How he quit a life path that wasn’t his
Why depression pushed him into the wilderness
What 20 hours a day of problem-solving does to the mind
How starvation, sleep deprivation, and hallucinations nearly broke him
What the AT teaches about presence, identity, and authenticity
Why suffering is the path to true freedom

This episode blends elite performance, mental health, spiritual presence, and raw survival stories — including the day Jeff ran 32 miles with only a handful of peanuts, and how he overcame brutal setbacks to secure the record.

If you’re drawn to endurance, resilience, military mindset, or the search for purpose… this conversation is a masterclass.
