Lessons the Ultraman Triathlon taught me about life | Adam Peruta | TEDxIthacaCollege
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. The Ultraman triathlon is an ultra distance triathlon consisting of a 6.2 mile open water swim, a 260 mile bike ride, and a 52.4 mile double marathon run. The Ultraman is an unpredictable event. Taking place under harsh conditions on the Big Island of Hawaii, it is as mentally demanding as it is physically. In 2010, Adam Peruta completed two of these races in the same calendar year, which made him the 17th person ever to do so. This is the story of setting the goal to take on a seemingly impossible challenge—and doing whatever it takes to cross the finish line.
