Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of major world record attempts and expeditions? My guest Mark Beaumont has led expeditions and TV documentaries for over 10 years. Mark started by cycling around the World and the length of the Americas, before heading into the oceans in the Arctic and the Atlantic, before presenting for the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, then back onto the bike for some more World Records from Cairo to Cape Town and then most recently knocking over 40 days off the circumnavigation World Record. He has published four books and filmed a number of BBC documentaries. For Mark to succeed in his record breaking endeavors he has needed the vision and energy to get an enterprise started around each venture and a dedicated support team. Join us to hear all about Mark’s incredible lessons in leadership and teamwork as well as dealing with the exhaustion, stress and frustration of ultra-endurance.
