December 10, 2025 - What’s the hardest thing you’ve ever done? This episode centers on real difficulty, not highlight reels. Craig recounts chasing long-held endurance goals and what those experiences took out of him physically and mentally. The conversation widens to other kinds of hard. Physical labor that breaks you down. Career moments where fear is unavoidable. Grief that does not resolve on a timeline. And the small, personal risks that feel enormous when you are standing in them. There is humor where it naturally appears, but this is mostly a grounded discussion about persistence, fear, and why big challenges rarely feel heroic while you are inside them. Hard things are endured one piece at a time, whether you are racing, rebuilding, performing, or asking out the hottest girl in college. Learn more about your ad choices.
