Imagine been hit by a truck at 65kmph while cycling, to look death straight in the face and come back to tell your story.
This is what happened to Marcus Smith, extreme athlete, motivational speaker, entrepreneur and coach, back in 2018.
Marcus has a competitive sporting background playing professional rugby since 18 years old, participating in the 2009 IRB Rugby Sevens World Cup. After retiring in 2010, he moved into CrossFit and endurance challenges. His achievements include running 250km self-supported ultra-marathon in the Sahara Desert, 230km ultra in Kenya, running 30 marathons in 30 days and ran a 42.2 km trail race on the Volvic Volcano in France just 4 months after his accident.
In this episode on Unstoppable, I speak with this amazingly resilient and brave human being, who came back from death to tell people that everything happens for a reason, and we all can develop grit to achieve anything we want in life.
