Description

In today's society, the competitor within slowly fades when the transition into fatherhood begins. As a father, competing is no longer about winning and losing, it's all about leading by example by giving your best every chance and every day we are blessed with. Join Daniel Hickman (a competing dad athlete of 3 girls who has several podium appearances racing in OCR, Hyrox, DEKA, and road races) as he interviews the top dad athletes in the World for their advice on how to juggle parenting, time management, business success, race-specific fitness training, and mental focus synergistically. If you are a dad struggling to reconnect with your competitive edge -or- a current dad athlete looking to learn strategies from the best, tune in for the best insights and proven strategies shared by leading dad athletes in the world.
