In this exhilarating episode of the Rev Up Health podcast, the hosts take listeners behind the scenes of their latest extreme endurance feat: the 29029 Limited Edition Aspen Challenge. They unpack the unique demands of this event, where the goal isn't speed, but perseverance: climbing the vertical elevation of Mount Everest—29,029 feet—in a grueling 36-hour timeframe, typically on a ski mountain with the luxury of taking the gondola down. They share the physical realities of conquering over nine ascents, each with thousands of feet of elevation gain, and reveal what truly drives participants, all of whom are alumni seeking the next level of challenge.

The discussion delves deep into the endurance mindset and the critical role of midlife wellness in such extreme events. The hosts share their personal "why," explaining how the challenge tests mental fortitude and fosters a profound appreciation for what the body can achieve. They transparently detail their unexpected struggle with altitude sickness during the Aspen event, how their preparation (or lack thereof) impacted their performance, and their proud commitment to getting back on the mountain to hike until the very end, even after a mandatory break. This is a story of resilience, recovery, and the power of community support.
