What does it take to tackle two Ironman-distance challenges in one weekend? 💪 This week on The Everyday Ironman Podcast, Les Shaeffer joins the conversation to share his endurance journey, competitive mindset, and experience completing the incredible Wisconsin Double!
Les and Ashley both race for Team Heartland in the Ozarks, bringing a shared team connection to the discussion. Although Les grew up playing sports, including contact sports, his endurance journey began early when he started distance running at just nine years old. That early introduction to running helped lay the foundation for the competitive spirit that continues to drive him toward ambitious goals.
Les recently completed the Wisconsin Double, taking on a 70.3-mile race on Saturday followed by a full Ironman on Sunday! We explore what motivates athletes to pursue extraordinary challenges and how a competitive mindset can push age-group athletes beyond what they thought possible.
Tune in for inspiration to dream big and keep chasing your goals!
