Titan Talk Season 2, Ep. 6 : Strongman to Summit (Solo-Episode)

The mountains were calling, so I went!

On this solo-episode of Titan Talk, I dive into the happenings of my life over the end of the summer and recent months. 
First, I detail my training prep for attempting a 14,000 ft peak with my family, how I chose the appropriate mountain, and why I even wanted to climb it in the first place. 
Next, I recount commentating at Colorado's Strongest Man and acclimating to altitude by driving to the top of Pike's Peak.
Then, it's the mountain itself, Grays Peak. Listen to my whole alpine experience on attempting the 14er with my wife and toddler, making a painful call to turn back, and reattempting the peak the following day... Ultimately leading to my successful summit of not one but TWO 14ers in one day!
After riding a wave of victory from the 14ers, I head to the 2023 Shaw Classic and discuss everything that went on through my POV: like getting to see my athlete friends, speaking at the expo, commentating the contest, Brian Shaw's win, and having to cut my travels short due to a family member's rapidly declining health.
Standing atop high summits and being in the powerful environment of the Shaw Classic fully rekindled my motivation to make a comeback to Strongman. Lastly, I talk about my entry to America's Strongest Man, and my spontaneously successful participation at the IHGF Stones of Strength All-American in Vista, California (along with claiming another high mountain summit just the day prior).
The fire is burning bright!

SPACE OUT with me at the episode's end as I talk about the impending second integrated test-flight of SpaceX's Starship and ROADS ON THE MOON!
