About this episode
Cody Walter shares his journey of overcoming personal struggles and finding purpose through fitness and endurance training.
Cody Walter knows that the path to purpose is rarely a straight line. After losing his father at age four, serving in the Army Reserves, and battling a debilitating depression while chasing "hustle culture," Cody realized his true strength wasn't in sales—it was in being reliable for others. We explore how he circled back to fitness to save his own life and why he is now preparing for the brutal BPN Last Man Standing ultra-marathon in Texas this April. This conversation is a raw look at finding direction in the darkness and training your mind to endure when the only finish line is how much you can suffer. Real people. Real stories. Real f**king life. Send a text Support the show The path to success is RELENTLESS. Thanks for listening! Follow us on Instagram & X, (@RelentlessPRJCT) or visit www.therelentlessproject.com.
