The conversation covers everything from climbing and endurance training to the lessons of the 1904 marathon (How the 1904 Marathon Became One of the Weirdest Olympic Events of All Time),  the value of nutrition tracking, and even survival strategies if you crash-landed in the Amazon jungle. Along the way, Jack reveals more about the Eclipse Challenge — a 28-day program designed to push physical and mental limits. Whether you’re chasing fitness goals, building personal resilience, or just curious about how to thrive under pressure, this episode will challenge you to take action, trust the process, and confront the hard things that lead to growth. Resilience is built through consistent challenges and recovery. The Eclipse Challenge is scalable and designed to push boundaries.
