Amanda Tsujikawa on Leadville 100, Endurance Mindset Strategies, and Beating Cancer

“You will never walk or hike again”. That is what doctors told Amanda Kimiko Tsujikawa after she was diagnosed with cancer. But since then, she has raced and podiumed at Spartan race events, summited tons of high altitude and challenging mountains, won a half marathon, and most recently, competed in the Ironman World Championships in Kona.

And while those athletic accomplishments are amazing, what’s even more amazing is that she beat cancer TWICE.

And now, she’s gearing up to take on her next challenge: the Leadville 100 miler.

Amanda Kimiko Tsujikawa is an elite endurance athlete, mountaineer, and content creator. Through her inspiring story of beating cancer twice and accomplishing incredible endurance feats, she is on a mission to inspire others to be unbreakable in their own lives.

In this episode, Amanda shares how she was able to overcome cancer with a powerful mindset, her approach to taking on new endurance challenges, and how she deploys mental strategies to keep her moving when things are difficult in an ultra.

Huge thank you to Amanda for coming on the show!
