Get ready to be inspired! We're sitting down with Fernando Lopez, an Ironman Gold All World Athlete and a true titan of endurance sports. With over 200 races under his belt, including 26 World Championships (and multiple podium finishes!), Fernando's resume is astonishing. He's conquered 10 Extreme Triathlons, 3 Ultramans, over 50 Ironmans, and run the Boston Marathon four times. And yes, he even ran the Houston Marathon four times in one day!
Fernando shares incredible stories from his global adventures in extreme events. If you're searching for your "next big challenge," this episode is packed with ideas. Beyond his own racing, Fernando also has a coaching business dedicated to helping others achieve what seems impossible.
