What small decisions could trun you fron inactive to ultra-marathon runner?In this episode, Jason Dunn shares his inspiring journey from aspiring footballer to ultra-endurance athlete and successful author. He discusses the importance of purpose, discipline, belief, and vulnerability in achieving greatness and overcoming life's challenges.In his new book, Greatness Doesn't Care (Major Street, Aug 2026), he challenges one of the most common assumption in leadership: that exceptional performance is driven by talent. Instead, he argues that long-term success is built through discipline, resilience and the decisions leaders make every day, particularly when circumstances are difficult.At 62, Jason is still competing in some of the world's toughest endurance events, having completed more than 14 IRONMAN competitions and multiple ultramarathons while building several successful businesses.
