Faced with a physical challenge and an uncertain future, Eric made a promise to himself to run an Ironman Triathlon. On his journey from the hospital bed in southern California to the finish line in Kona Hawaii, he realized that the challenge and adversity he was up against and the practical techniques he used to reach the finish line could be used against the challenges we all entertain. He now speaks to and inspires people to embrace their challenges. When not training, racing and delivering inspiration, Eric can be found with his wife, Rachel, and three children.
