      @@Gabaldegook might be depending on what hardcore means to every person. 'd say the main superpower these people have is the lack of overthinking or doubting. i wrote overanalysing first but then I realised it takes a lot of analyses to figure out a bouldering problem or a training plan for the day. but then, they somehow manage to not involve too many of the negative emotions in it with people who are more like me, I am a very doubtful, insecure, overanalyzing person who has problems making decisions. so I am so envious of people who are like this.

    Her approach and where she's at says it all. We have such an addiction to analysis, preparation, trying to figure things out. Which mostly, all resides outside of the present moment. Spend more effort doing and less focus on trying to figure it out. Courtney may not even realize that she's a zen master😂🧝‍♀️🧘‍♀️

      Static training plans are uneffective, they only act upon performance loss or increase delayed or not at all. Also it kills your fun for what you are doing... with basic boundaries and a driven attitude you get further in my opinion.

      Rich is very curious about her process and I can see him try to pick her brain more but that's what happens when you talk to a natural, her answers may seem basic or unsatisfactory to those who need more analysis. I saw her in Joe Rogan and it's the same, genuine answers, and she's not scared to tell people about her "basic" process.

      This is especially a problem in the age of RUclips influencers where they have these fitness channels with hundreds of videos that obsess over every minuscule detail of exercise to get you to click on their videos. In reality it only needed to be like a dozen videos but they'd stop making money if they stopped making content thus the vast sea of useless information.

  • @kaizenj6738
    @kaizenj6738 3 года назад +148

    I love how Courtney has this presence of just figuring it out and and trusting in herself to figure it out that Rich will never understand. With his attempts to shoot out his perceptions and fears onto her, she just has such a innocent answer that you can literally see his brain not conceptualizing.
    She is my inspiration for my mindset that maybe we should just start making things simple and not wasting energy thinking about it and just trust ourself to figure it out.
    - Do, not think.
    - Get to your scary part faster and then make friends with it.
    - When your in a situation, get to the facts and control what you can control.

    It's called "gratitude". Courtney is a great role model for that. As Camille Bruyas stated in her post UTMB interview when asked how she was smiling so much along the way: "I decided to run. It's a choice, so you have to feel all the nature, the people, the views, the energy...). Basically, nobody is forcing them to do this and they are thankful for the opportunity that most of the world will never experience.

    Courtney is like an artist really. I'm a musician and you can do music mired in the theory and obsess over what notes you are playing, or you learn it and then throw it all away at a conscious level because you have internalized it all.

    Courtney is living proof of what we all have in our hearts !! Deep down we know this that's why we love so much to hear her because something within our hearts resonates to that truth of FUN.
    The planning really well, working hard hard and winning works! But at the end of life Courtney will have had a looooot of FUN every day every training, every race and WIN while others who also WIN but they missed a lot of fun while stressing on planning, ticking boxes geting dissapointed or very frustrated for not keeping up with the plan, losing race.
    It same as making money. It can be fun or it ca be a lot of stress, fear, frustration. Some people win a lot of money just to prove themselves or from fear based motivation. While others just want to have a lot more fun in life. Build a business from passion, build a happy unified efficient team, enjoy serving their clients. JOY, FUN is a choice. Right? Give a like if u agree.

    What I have learned is that she never judge anything, anyone and she never takes things too seriously. What a role model.

    Over-planning is a recipe for letting yourself down. Just do you and life will come to you. Keep inspiring people Courtney and keep having fun!!!

      In cycling and triathlon the search for marginal gains in aerodynamics, equipment, training and nutrition are critical. The simplicity of ultrarunning must allow this level of simplicity to work. She is clearly naturally talented. If she had coaching and more organization I would imagine she would be just as good.

    This chick rules, man. So non-nonchalant. I saw her on Rogan talking about her diet regime - it's mostly tacos and beer lol. Just proves it's all in the mind and she has transcended.

Lol , Rich says Jelly Beans😋 Thank you Rich Roll you have inspired and added so much value to my life with the knowledge and people you share with us in your interviews 😃❤ Be well.

    Rich, thank you so much for your continued excellence at choosing guests and having this incredible propensity for delivering a fabulous conversation and interaction every time! This particular chat and much of what both of you had to say came at the perfect time for me personally and not even related to endurance activity; I’m headed to help my parents through their next stage in life which will require my full attention and expertise at helping them navigate a cognitively challenged existence. jokes help everything might just be my mantra to make it through and I already rely heavily on stand-up comedy whether I’m riding or running and I bet it will be the perfect cushion to the challenge I am facing next!

      I thought the same! Glad to see someone else did too. Her intuitive and easygoing attitude is the embodiment of wu-wei, effortless action. Don't think or analyze or plan-just Do. Adapt continuously to each moment and drop all notions of what the moment should have been. What an inspiration!

    I’m about half way in and I’m a huge fan of the podcast. I’m a new sub and I’m hooked. Thank you for interviewing such amazing people. I realize the work behind the production. It’s great! I almost skipped over this but I’m so happy I didn’t. Courtney is amazing. She’s so great to listen to. Her laughter is contagious and the sheer DRIVE! Absolutely amazing! I’m an armature “runner” in my mind. Lol! I’d have to venture into the mindset. I personally don’t believe she should ever have any testing done until never. Running is a skill but this long distance stuff is 100% a mind game. She has what it takes to conquer. As a female and basic understanding of biology/exercise science, it doesn’t surprise me that you guys are talking about how great SHE is! 🎉❤😊

  • @sloumouu

I watched you being interviewed by Tom Bilyeu and you commented that you needed to "step up your game " after viewing his studio etc.Well you have more than done that !!! The whole setup ( black background , brown table , green chairs etc all blend together so well ) and its an absolute please listening to your soothing voice and intellectual questions. CLASS ACT comes to mind .. congrats on leading the pack now.

    Prior to this episode, I did not know who Courtney Dauwalter was... Her perspective on pain (The Pain Cave), really resonated with me. I really really really like this and while on the mountain running today, I practiced looking forward to reaching that point, instead of resisting. This mindset is taking liberation to another level! Thank you Rick and Courtney!
