More about the book
Travis Macy has summited peaks in the French Alps, explored limestone caves in China, and raced through Utah's deserts. He notably won the Leadman, a challenging ultra-distance series culminating in a 100-mile mountain biking race and a 100-mile trail run. Achieving this without extraordinary physical attributes or advanced performance aids, Macy attributes his success to what he calls the "Ultra Mindset." This mindset encompasses principles for everyday life that are accessible to everyone, not just elite athletes. Key tenets include embracing fear, reshaping personal narratives, and mastering the skill of seeking help. By applying concepts like "It's All Good Mental Training," "When you have no choice, anything is possible," and "Never quit...except when you should quit," individuals can achieve what once seemed unattainable. Coauthored with award-winning journalist John Hanc, this work combines Macy's thrilling personal experiences in endurance racing with practical, research-backed advice. Engaging narratives of his adventures lead to valuable mindset principles, self-assessments, and effective workouts. Macy's captivating stories inspire readers to cultivate a winning outlook for success in business, sports, and life.
