    The Last Lion: Mike Nixon, the Cape Epic, and the Endurance Mindset

    Few athletes in the world can match the achievement of Mike Nixon. As the only rider to have completed every Cape Epic since its inception in 2004, Mike has covered more than 14,000 kilometres in one of the toughest mountain bike races on earth — climbing the equivalent of Mount Everest 34 times. Mike Nixon shares what it takes to summit Mount Everest — a journey of endurance, humility, and lessons forged at the highest point on Earth.   In this episode, Mike reflects on what the Cape Epic has taught him about resilience, long-term consistency, and managing risk under extreme pressure. His journey is a powerful reminder that endurance is as much mental as it is physical. #MTB #Cycling #CapeEpic #AbsaCapeEpic #CapeEpicLegend #TheLastLion #EnduranceAthlete #MentalToughness #MountainBikingSouthAfrica #JDVOnAir
