 Robert Verhelst joins today’s episode of the Endurance Cartel Podcast to talk about the importance of inspiring others through inspiring ourselves to do the impossible, and the impact it can have on our mental health.

Do it yourself!” “Our limitations are not time, our limitations are beliefs…. I wasn’t out there to finish on time, I was out there to help people believe that everything is possible…You have to feel it to truly believe in yourself”. “Everybody thinks I must have such mental strength. Yeah, I do but I’m also human! There are moments when I think why am I doing this, this is dumb!” “ Everybody on that scene was going for the ultimate purpose of helping humanity, helping other people. It didn’t matter what, you asked for a task, whether it was being a tunnel rat or mapping out search and rescue… it didn’t matter as nobody hesitated to say yes I’ll do that….That to me is something that we’re missing right now”. “Realizing the perspective of what you’re capable of is probably the most important thing to do before engaging in something…And perspective change…You can change your perspective,”. “In an endurance event, I always say my finish line is a mile out because that’s where you feel the power of what that day was” “You get one chance at this thing called life and trust me it is something that will beat you to your knees, but also something great. You have the opportunity to make the journey that you want” Links selected from this episode Ironman- a series of long-distance triathlon races organized by the World Triathlon Corporation consisting of a 2.4-mile (3.9 km) swim, a 112-mile (180.2 km) bicycle ride, and a marathon 26.22-mile (42.2 km) run9/11 attacks – a series of four plane suicide attacks on the United States in Washington DC.
