Goggins: total badass at 45. The dude's 6'7.
While I agree some people use this as a cop out, as.someone who had stress fractures, trained through them, alongside a fellow XC member with them, I'm glad I got treatment. He shattered his femur. He never ran again.
Goggins is a masterpiece. A freak of nature. If you're hurt, get help. Hurt is different than discomfort. My teammate lost his scholarship because he wanted to be tough. I went and asked a medical professional opinion.
Learn pain versus discomfort. It's a subtle line, but it makes all the difference.

I agree he's a genetic anomaly. Smoke jumping? That's crazy.

I am a fan of his. I haven't read the book but I watch his social media.
He is a beast and I admire it. I aspire to be that.
