006: Jason Magness - Leading Races and Lessons Learned
Manage episode 273472392 series 2794937
Jason is the team captain for Team Bend Racing, who just happens to be one of our top American adventure racing teams.
Jason is a father and a modern-day Renaissance athlete. He excels in a ton of different sports from ultra-endurance racing, circus partner acrobatics, and yoga, to highlining, rock climbing, and whitewater paddling. He even does some swing dancing and bowling with over 50 expedition races under his belt.
His team, Bend Racing, was really looking to make their mark on Eco-Challenge Fiji. And after watching the coverage, I think that we can all agree that they left a mark!
I have learned so much from this conversation with Jason and it has made such a deep impact on me that I will be using pieces of this conversation for years to come!
In this episode, you will hear:
- How Jason and his wife, Chelsey, dealt with the loss of a baby
- Mistakes they’ve done on the Eco-Challenge
- How the Eco-Challenge is different from the Ironman
- Some adventure racing tips (especially for the newbies!)
- How being first changes the whole dynamic on your psyche
- Learning to be good at competitiveness when you’re the underdog
- Figuring out how to use your story to get the win
- What makes adventure racing different than any other sport in the world
- What happens at a post-race debrief
