The Ironman Mindset: Grit, Goals, and Getting Through It

Before he became a physician, Tommy Martin found himself gasping for air on a first date - a ten-mile run that would unknowingly change the course of his life. In this episode, Tommy opens up about his transformation from struggling beginner to Ironman athlete, sharing the brutal lessons learned along the way. He talks candidly about the mental grit it takes to push your body past its limits, how endurance sports shaped his mindset in medicine, and why community and support matter more than talent or training plans. Whether you’re in scrubs or running shoes, this is a story about finding your edge, and choosing to keep going.
