I sat down to have a chat with Kurt Noreika. He has just completed his first ultra and pitches in some great advice for my ultra in a couple of weeks time. This was a really fun conversation and we chatted about everything from inspiration to using running for mental health and witnessing roadkill. I hope you enjoy and get as much from this chat as I did.

Bouncing back from this calf injury finally! It's all psychological and a little physiological I suppose. Warming up for Feral Pig Ultra. Only 2 weeks away from my first ultra. 

This is a special release episode of "Uncharted with Jordan Walker"  featuring an extraordinary guest, Jason Hardrath, whose story is nothing short of awe-inspiring.

In this episode, we delve into Jason's remarkable achievement: his Fastest Known Time (FKT) record of the Rocky Mountain Grand Slam. Picture this – 122 peaks conquered in just 40 days! An incredible feat in its own right, but what makes it truly remarkable are the considerable obstacles he faced along the way. Most would have thrown in the towel, but not Jason.

We explore the mindset that carried him through these formidable challenges. Jason's resilience, determination, and unshakable belief in the possible are the cornerstones of his success.

But Jason's journey goes beyond the mountains. We also delve into a life-altering accident that should have left him debilitated for life. Instead of surrendering to despair, he used the experience as a catalyst for growth and transformation.

And that's not all. Jason shares insights into his latest project, "Journey to Infinity." This gripping film recounts his FKT attempt of the Pico De Orizaba Infinity Loop – another incredible adventure that pushes the boundaries of what's possible.

This episode is a testament to the power of the human spirit, the indomitable will to overcome adversity, and the boundless potential of the human mind. It's about chasing dreams, no matter how audacious they may seem.

So, join us for this special release episode. Jason's wisdom and insights are too valuable not to share. Get ready to be inspired, motivated, and uplifted as we uncover the extraordinary journey of Jason Hardrath.
