Ever wonder what it takes to be a successful professional adventure athlete? For its June Outside in Aspen weekend, Outside magazine put together a panel of some of the most well-known adventure athletes on the globe to discuss what it takes to make it work, and what the evolution of that career path has been over the past decade.
According to the panel of experts, which included skier Chris Davenport, cyclist Tyler Hamilton, kayaker Jesse Coombs and climbers Jake Norton and Melissa Arnot, (sponsored athlete for Polartec parter, Eddie Bauer), it is a little bit of masochism, a dedication to the risky lifestyle and a steadfast enjoyment of the journey no matter how hard. Take a look at this footage of the panel, all of the panelists are pretty incredible. It may be the first video to ever make me consider skipping the shower for 60 days.
