On September 29th, Sally stood on the street corner of Main Street and Mount Whitney Portal Road in Lone Pine, CA. She had never summited Mount Whitney before, so why did she think she could pull off summiting the tallest mountain in the lower 48 states, not just once but twice? And as if the challenge of summiting twice wasn't enough, Sally chose to start at the very bottom, 23 miles away. The whole route was 92 miles and over 22,000 feet of climbing. In this episode, Sally and Eddie break down the attempt and the hidden story behind the double summit. Sally also explains why the Choose Strong Project took a surprise turn and ended in this way. The powerful meaning is one we know you will be encouraged by as Sally has reiterated again and again that this project was never about racing, finishing times, or recognition, but to send a message of hope to everyone. Topics Covered: *The story behind the attempt and why Sally chose this particular course *Training, the crew, and the various "unknowns" that made this attempt challenging *Eddie discusses his role crewing; the scare when he thought the truck was going to break down; and how he helped keep Sally going *Mindset and how to find strength to begin again- no matter you're journey *The Choose Strong Project, our newsletter; and what's coming next!
