We discuss Eddy’s personal battle with cancer and his road to not just recovering, but his breaking of barriers and the completion of his first Ironman.

Other discussion points include replacing motivation with action, the importance of sport for healing and goal setting. Eddy is a charming individual who gives an important reminder of the power of self-belief.
