004: Waterford to the Wilderness: Adam Sweeney Interview

In this episode of Strap Yer Boots, we had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Irish mountaineer Adam Sweeney from Waterford, and let us tell you—his story is nothing short of epic. 

Adam takes us through his jaw-dropping experiences, including how he became the only member of his team to summit both Ama Dablam in Nepal and summit Aconcagua in Argentina. His stories are packed with grit, determination, and the kind of resilience that’ll leave you questioning your own excuses for skipping leg day. 

But Adam isn’t stopping there—he’s gearing up for his biggest challenge yet: summiting Mount Everest in 2026. We talked about how he’s preparing for this, what it takes to keep going when the odds are stacked against you, and the mindset needed to conquer not just mountains, but life itself.

This episode is raw, inspiring, and filled with moments that’ll have you on the edge of your seat (or, you know, your hiking boots). Strap yer boots, hit play, and let’s climb together!
