Description

Over two years ago, we introduced the concept of Misogi—doing something so challenging it changes you—through Michael Easter’s book The Comfort Crisis - Discomfort to Reclaim Your Wild, Happy and Healthy Self. Now, we’re revisiting it with fresh eyes and deeper insights. In a world built for convenience, what does it truly mean to seek out discomfort? And how can that mindset shape us into stronger runners—and better people? Join coach, Adam Kimble, and us as we explore boredom, solitude, hunger, and the wild places that force us to grow.

Here is the link to Adventure Scientists that Adam talked about.
