What We Dive Into

Is this our best episode since last week? Definitely.

This week the guys sit down with Jeff Seckendorf โ€” a 71-year-old who owns four World Ultra Cycling Association records and is full-time proof that age really is just a number (or, in his words, an “upgrade”).ย 

Jeffโ€™s lived a full life and has gone through many careers; from professional cinematographer, founder of a scuba training agency, to coaching athletes across every age group, and being a pilot.

We dig into how he keeps setting records well into his 70s, his philosophy on staying healthy and avoiding injury for the long haul, and his approach to goal-setting that’s kept him motivated for decades. Jeff also shares the story behind his new book, Diving Into Purpose, and why he thinks “pivoting proudly” beats slowing down every time.

If you love getting perspective from those with vast amounts of experience or you’ve ever wondered what it actually looks like to keep chasing big goals as you get older, this one’s for you.
