Show notes
Today I had a chat with Thabang Madiba and he is such a humble and inspirational guy. Through hard work, dedication, and passion, he has won the South African Trail Running Championships multiple times and was the first black South African to represent the country in trail running. He is the Two Oceans Marathon Trail Race Champion, Skyrim African Champ & Racing Madagascar Champion.Some questions I asked: How do you define success? (14:26) How do you prepare yourself mentally? (15:48) What fears do you have? (18:44) Who inspires you? (20:25) How can running make you a better person? (23:24)Key takeaways: Trail running requires an exceptional amount of mental toughness to endure such long distances especially at a fast pace It’s a blessing when you are disadvantaged or come from a struggling background as it forces you to dream big! Focusing and working constantly towards a big goal helps you silence your excuses and make you forget your current problems or situation. Envision yourself with the top class players or participants. It could very much help you endure what you are doing. It is not always about winning. It is about enjoying the journey on your way there. To be a great runner, or any type of athlete for that matter, takes a lot of hard work and discipline. It takes discipline and also builds disciplineReach out to Thabang: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thabangmadiba Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thabang.e.madiba HOW CAN YOU SUPPORT THE PODCAST?-> This show grows and impacts people only because of awesome people like you!To impact more people, please subscribe, share & review this podcast on your preferred platform: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, RadioPublic, TuneIn, PocketCast & CastroSubscribe to the show for lots more to come!
