Colin O'Brady's sled strap snapped before he even took his first step in Antarctica.

Minus 25 degrees. Alone. Racing a British special forces vet already disappearing over the horizon.

Colin started sweating within the hour. Then crying. The tears froze to his face.

He called his wife Jenna from the ice. She didn't tell him to quit. She told him to focus on one thing. Get to the first waypoint. Half a mile away.

That night in his tent, a mantra came to him out of nowhere. You are strong. You are capable. He said it out loud every morning for the next 54 days.

Day one, he barely made it. Day two, eight miles. Day three, nine miles and his first real minute of flow.

Even having multiple world records to his name, Colin still wakes up scared most days. This story is about what he does with that fear, not how he gets rid of it.
