This is a gem. As someone who has gone through a NDE myself and was on bed rest for 8 months, i will never, ever take for granted the ability to be physically active. You don’t know what you got until it’s gone.
We need more Harvey Lewis’ in this world. So much knowledge & so down to earth
What an amazing gift as we turn the year. Harvey is truly one of the worlds great athletes- the mental strength that he has had to continually improve and endure through pain is inspirational. In his words he wasn’t a great runner as he started but through work he tapped into his potential. Nick does a great job in the interview. What is possible for each of us? Much more than we typically believe. Hope Harvey comes back on after the Barkley.
Join the USA team -- what a honor to be invited by Harvey!! Also, very excited to see you pace Sally (McRae and Bare is an unstoppable duo....)
Woo! Harvey Lewis has to be one of my greatest sources of inspiration, along with Courtney Dauwalter. It's just the general outlook on life and the positive 'go for it' attitude that really get me going from day to day. And I'm not some super-high-achieving athlete, but it's enough to get yourself out for your chair and go out for a walk, which might turn into a run, which might be then 10k long and totally spontaneous.
It really is contagious energy and I'm so glad that we're able to live in a time where these ideas are so easily spread throughout the world. Anyways, thanks a hundred times for sharing these stories from such amazing people. I'll go out for a bit and then I'll finish the rest of the podcast. :)
Nick is so good at getting people to open up. I knew this would be amazing!!
World class athlete and so down to earth and relatable to the common folks in the running community. In addition, he’s from my hometown near Cleveland and I’ve ran his training routes when he lived here.
Harvey is a legend
