The capacity to endure is crucial for exceptional performance across various fields, from sprinting to ultramarathons, and even in academics and challenging projects. What if we could push ourselves further than we believe? Award-winning journalist Alex Hutchinson, blending cutting-edge science with compelling storytelling, explores this idea. With insights from recent research, he reveals that the physical barriers we face are often dictated by our minds as much as our bodies. This suggests that the mind is the new frontier of endurance, expanding our understanding of performance limits. Hutchinson delves into the intricate relationship between mind and body while sharing the inspiring stories of individuals who have transcended their limits. As a former national-team long-distance runner and physicist, Hutchinson brings a unique perspective, having been granted exclusive access to Nike's secret project aimed at breaking the two-hour marathon barrier. The lessons he learns from elite athletes and high-tech labs are universally applicable. He defines endurance as "the struggle to continue against a mounting desire to stop," emphasizing that we all possess the potential to push ourselves a little further.
