This podcast was originally published on Sports Will Save Us All, the wildly popular human interest Sports Podcast based in Arizona and hosted by Sasha Graham. 

In 2023, elite cyclist Jeff Seckendorf came on the show to share his quest to break the national velodrome hour record in the 70-74 age group. His goal was set, his training dialed, his eye was on the prize. But as so often happens in sports, and in life, deep into training he came to a staggering realization that lead to a massive pivot that you have to hear to believe.

If you're interested in learning more about Jeff's original goal, listen to his first visit to the show in an episode that was re-released on August 10, 2025.

Jeff completed his ride in support of Parkinson's Association of San Diego. If you would like to learn more or make a donation in his honor, visit Parkinson's Association of San Diego.
