MY MISOGI IS TWO WEEKS AWAY... AND I'M SCARED.

Every year I do something called a Misogi. It's an ancient Japanese practice... you take on ONE big challenge a year. Something so hard it defines your entire year.

I have 2 rules for picking mine:

1. It has to be REALLY hard... like 50/50 chance I actually finish.
2. Don't die.

Some of my past Misogis... I lived with a Navy SEAL for a month. I ran Ultraman. I biked across America. I ran Rim to Rim to Rim at the Grand Canyon.

This year is the biggest one yet. The 29029 Triple. Swim the height of Everest. Bike the height of Everest. Climb the height of Everest. Back to back to back.

I've never done anything like this. Nobody has. And honestly... I don't know if I can finish it.

That's the whole point.

For the next month I'm documenting everything... the training, the open water swims, the long rides, the doubts. All of it. Follow along... it starts NOW.

And I want to know... what's YOUR Misogi this year? Drop it below 👇
