In this episode, we speak to 'Bruce & Nutty', 2 Royal Marines Commandos who have both served over a decade, and in recent years have taken a liking for extreme water endurance challenges

We discuss how they both got started straight out of school, choosing to pursue commando training instead of a more traditional route into A levels and university, the early challenges of passing fitness tests and basic training - as well as an inside look at how life looks day to day as a marine. They explain how in recent years they've taken up extreme endurance Kayak events, crossing hundreds of miles of water without sleep, conquering the mental aspect of such challenges, and finding peace in such solitary pursuits

We also dive into their most recent expedition, where they rowed the entire Atlantic Ocean as part of a 4 man crew in a boat no bigger than the average van - in a ruthless crossing that took 7 weeks. Rowing through 20-meter seas, having whales & sharks follow them for days & battling hallucinations after losing connection to their Spotify account! The anecdotes shared here about the row, and eventual arrival in Barbados where they finished the crossing, will have many listeners questioning the way they look at much less serious situations...

I think this will be a fascinating insight into an entirely different way of living and looking at the world. Coming from a Rowing background myself, I've always had an admiration for such grueling tests of fitness & mind, and there are many lessons that can be taken here and applied to any area of life - those who truly want to win or get something done will do anything to get there, no matter what - enjoy the episode!
