089: How Cancer Transformed Amanda Kimiko's Life and Mindset to Conquer Leadville 100

In this episode, we dive into the story of Amanda Kimiko—military veteran, cancer survivor, and ultra-endurance athlete.


Amanda’s mantra, Unbreakable, is more than just a word; it’s how she approaches life’s toughest moments. From overcoming cancer to taking on the Leadville 100 Ultra Marathon, she’s proof of what’s possible when you push your limits. Amanda recaps Leadville, shares how ultra running became a path to personal growth, overcame cancer twice, and how it shaped her in ways beyond the physical. Her journey is a testament to resilience, strength, and the relentless pursuit of one more.
