But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place?

Start Where You Are: Life Lessons from a 68-Year-Old World Record Chaser with Mark Herbst 34:31

8 weeks之前34:31

34:31

In this episode of The Bucket List Life podcast , I sit down with Mark Herbst, a 68-year-old endurance cyclist attempting to break the world record for the oldest person to cycle around the world. Mark shares his incredible 30,000-kilometre journey, which isn't just about breaking records—it's a deeply personal mission to honour his late wife's memory and raise funds for cancer research. We explore why age is no barrier to athletic achievement and how anyone can push their boundaries by starting exactly where they are. Whether you're looking to tackle your own challenges or turn personal setbacks into meaningful goals, this conversation shows that it's never too late to pursue extraordinary dreams. Key Topics World Record Attempt: A 68-year-old's quest to become the oldest person to cycle around the world. Endurance Cycling Logistics: The essential planning behind a global cycling journey. The Nullarbor Challenge: Tackling Australia's harshest desert crossing by bicycle. Personal Motivation: Cycling worldwide to honour a late wife's memory and fund cancer research. Age and Athletic Achievement: Proving athletic excellence has no age limit. Personal Growth Philosophy: Starting where you are and building towards bigger challenges.

Actionable Takeaway Take your first step today by choosing one small challenge - a daily walk, a new hobby, or learning something new - and build momentum from there. Put your mind and body to work today because your abilities are meant to be used, not saved for later. Write down the real reason behind your goal - make it personal and meaningful enough to get you through tough days. Start your journey exactly where you are right now - your current situation is the perfect launching point for change. Track your own progress and celebrate your personal wins instead of comparing yourself to others. Reach out to one person today who can support your journey - whether it's a friend, mentor, or community member. Document your progress, no matter how small, because your journey might be exactly what someone else needs to see.

Start your nomad journey in established hubs like Bali or Thailand where you'll find reliable WiFi, co-working spaces, and supportive communities. Research and apply for proper digital nomad visas instead of relying on tourist visas to work legally in your chosen destinations. Focus on becoming an expert in one specific service or skill rather than jumping between different business ideas. Book long-term accommodation through trusted platforms like Airbnb to ensure stable living situations in new locations. Set up systems for remote work success: reliable internet backup, international banking, and time zone management tools.
