Description
Connor Emeny is the first person to complete an Ironman triathlon on all seven continents. The seventh did not exist as a race. He built it from nothing. Joe De Sena talks with Emeny about cold-calling his way to the South Pole, crossing the Drake Passage on a 45-foot sailboat, swimming 3.86 kilometers in minus 1°C water until his body went hypothermic, and biking 180 kilometers in 1,800 loops on volcanic ash. No doctor. No hospital. No guarantee.
👉Watch the full episode for Connor's origin story, the pandemic that started the quest, and the book and documentary that chronicle the journey.

The Hard Way Podcast With Joe De Sena, Hosted by Joe De Sena, founder and CEO of Spartan, this podcast delves into the principles of resilience, discipline, and the Spartan mindset. De Sena's journey from building a multimillion-dollar pool cleaning business in his teens to establishing a successful Wall Street trading firm showcases his entrepreneurial spirit. In 2001, he transitioned from finance to operate an organic farm in Pittsfield, Vermont, where his passion for endurance events like ultramarathons and adventure races flourished. This led to the creation of Spartan, aiming to inspire individuals to embrace challenges and push their limits.
