#239: Billy Edwards on The Marine Corps, Hard Versus Stupid, and The Art of Coaching
Manage episode 363191412 series 2808719
On Episode 239 I sit down with Billy Edwards. Billy is a friend of mine from CrossFit Roots and someone who I always enjoy talking to when he walks through the door to work out.
Billy served in the Marine Corps, where he was part of the US invasion of Iraq. While in the Marines he got into long, endurance type of events and started doing Iron Mans among other events after his time in the Marines. Now, he is a triathlon coach for the Naval Academy.
Today, we talk all about his experiences in the Marine Corps, the idea of doing something hard versus something that is just plain stupid, mental toughness and how far that can actually take you outside of your physical capabilities, the art of coaching, and a whole lot more.
I really enjoyed my conversation with Billy and I hope that you all enjoy this conversation as much as I did!
Thank you for listening!!
