Stage 1 of the Marathon des Sables - 32.2kms
As I lined up to start my second Marathon des Sables, I wasn’t sure on how I would start. In previous days, my, until that point, clear intent had been disturbed due to some achilles tendon issues. A driving reason behind why I was standing here, staring down 250km across the Sahara desert was to settle some regrets from 2016. Therefore, focus and clarity of approach had not been an issue until inexplicably, the ache in my achillies ramped up as the shadow of the race loomed over us. As AC/DC’s Highway to Hell boomed through our little corner of the Sahara, I was with slight surprise when I started running out the gate. By the time I reached Checkpoint 1 I was a very happy man. This was the exact start I wanted. Aggressive, present, courageous. All in all a stage 1 I’m very happy with, however, the reaction of my body to the output and demanding conditions has left what is ahead quite the daunting prospect. Tune into today’s episode of @deep_roots_podcast to hear the full story of Day 1, including my secret delight when John and Conor from our @ironmindinstitute team passed me between CP 2 & 3, my old Saharan nemesis humbling me again, and my rating for standards and efforts for the day.

Day 194: It is a rare moment for me
Day 194 of Damian Browne’s prep for the Million Euro Lap —a 3,000-kilometer run around Ireland’s coast to raise €1 million for charity. It’s Saturday, January 18, 11:34 AM, and Damian’s savoring a rare, peaceful morning—two coffees deep, kids at the zoo with his fiancée, work simmering. Then, snap: a stiff, throbbing Achilles crashes the calm. Week four of cycle four, a push phase, has been stellar—8+ RQS scores across four sessions, new strength PBs, and a gutsy 2,000-meter interval run last night. But that aggression’s cost creeps in: a heel flare-up that’s now threatening tomorrow’s heavy sled pulls. Fresh off a 30-minute treadmill high last week, Damian’s chasing consistency despite sleep deficits (three to six hours nightly) and a body still unconditioned for running’s grind. Last night’s late gym stint—five 400-meter intervals at rising pace—felt triumphant until the Achilles stiffened post-rep five. Now, he’s weighing heavy eccentric fixes today against the sanctity of a rest day, all while battling work overwhelm and a noisy gym debate. Tune in for a raw wrestle with pain, patience, and the relentless focus on what moves the needle: quality work. In This Episode: ✔️ Peace pierced : A serene Saturday derailed by a tender Achilles flare ✔️ Interval aggression : 5x400-meter runs (2,000 meters total) push pace and position ✔️ Week four wins : 8+ RQS scores, PBs in trap bar walks, and deficit deadlifts ✔️ Sleep strain : 3.5–6 hours nightly test recovery amid a brutal push ✔️ Work vs. body : Prioritizing quality training over shiny distractions like ice baths Take Action: Want to fuel Damian’s mission to conquer Ireland’s coast?

Day 184: Half an Hour, Half a Fight
Day 184 of Damian Browne’s prep for the Million Euro Lap —a 3,000-kilometer run around Ireland’s coast to raise €1 million for charity. Tonight, at 9:30 PM, after a long, stressful day and scant sleep, Damian hits the treadmill with a nagging Achilles stiffness that’s haunted him since returning to Australia. What starts as a cautious test—90 seconds of biting pain—turns into a 30-minute run at 9 km/h, his longest nonstop effort since cycle three’s 28-minute peak. Relief floods in: no flare-up, no setback. But shame lurks too—an inner voice sneers, “You’re celebrating 30 minutes when you can’t even run an hour?” Three weeks of heel stiffness had stalled his running, a glaring red flag with the Mount & De Bla three months away and Ireland’s coast in 16. Patience, a virtue Damian prizes, clashed with his urge to push, but heavy eccentric work—sled pulls and calf drills—unlocked progress. Tonight’s run, born from a “fuck it” gamble after a five-out-of-10 warmup, proves his body’s adapting. Yet, that cruel inner critic, mocking his pace against Iron Mind’s 5K benchmark, fuels a deeper fight. Tune in for a raw clash of triumph and doubt, and the stubborn grit keeping him in the ring. In This Episode: ✔️ 30-minute milestone : 9 km/h nonstop—longest run since cycle three, no Achilles flare ✔️ Heel hurdle : Three weeks of stiffness tackled with heavy eccentrics and patience ✔️ Inner critic unleashed : Shame vs. excitement—can’t hit 40 minutes or Iron Mind’s 5K ✔️ Risk and reward : Scant sleep (4.5 hours) and stress test his injury-prone edge ✔️ Fight within : Battling the “conniving fucker” of doubt to stay on the path Take Action: Want to fuel Damian’s mission to conquer Ireland’s coast?

Day 176: Chaos, Grit, and a Missing Man on the Mountain
Nine weeks since his last recording, life’s thrown a whirlwind his way: a five-week family trip to Ireland, patchy training, a breakthrough 40-minute run, and a near-disaster coaching a team through the Galway Mountains. Picture this: Damian, hauling 29 kilos up a brutal peak, catches the group only to hear, “Have you seen Paul?” Cue the panic—Paul’s vanished, the clock’s ticking, and sunset’s closing in. ✔️ Running breakthrough : 40 minutes on Ireland’s dark roads—28 straight, then 12 more ✔️ Ireland chaos : No gym, late drives, and family-work juggling dent training quality ✔️ Mountain scare : Paul goes missing on an 8-hour loaded hike; Damian hauls 29 kilos to regroup ✔️ Back setback : Hack Squat clack halts a two-week training gap, but rehab cuts it to five days Take Action: Want to fuel Damian’s mission to conquer Ireland’s coast?

Day 100: Floating Through Fear
Day 100 of Damian Browne’s prep for the Million Euro Lap —a 3,000-kilometer run around Ireland’s coast to raise €1 million for charity. This week, Damian hits a game-changer: his longest run without stopping in 100 days. Late at the gym, past 11 PM, he hops on the treadmill to “play around” and ends up floating through 12 minutes straight, then adds another 10. After weeks of breakdowns and fear, this 22-minute pain-free run—totaling 50 minutes for the week—marks a leap from cycle two’s eight-minute stints. What’s behind it? New loaded mobility drills, dialed-in core work, and a stubborn resolve to push frequency. Damian’s testing a second running session every nine days, battling the ghosts of past injuries while chasing progress. Tonight’s unplanned breakthrough—fueled by glute ham raises, weighted Cossack squats, and banded ab exercises—unlocks his hips and steadies his stride. From feeling “great” to marveling “sweet child of mine,” Damian digs into why this works: subtle tractioning, patient positioning, and a stronger, more connected core. Tune in for a raw look at his training evolution and the mindset that turns late-night experiments into triumphs. In This Episode: ✔️ Running milestone : 12 minutes straight, then 10 more—longest run in 100 days ✔️ Loaded mobility magic : Glute ham tractioning and 12-kilo Cossacks free up Damian’s hips ✔️ Fear in the rearview : Second run every nine days despite past breakdowns ✔️ Core connection : Banded ab wheel isometrics and max decline sit-ups anchor his stride ✔️ Volume surge : 50 minutes of running this week, up from 8 in cycle two 💡 Take Action: Want to fuel Damian’s mission to conquer Ireland’s coast?

Day 95: Covid... again?
Day 95 of Damian Browne’s journey to conquer a 3,000-kilometer run around Ireland’s coast for the Million Euro Lap , aiming to raise €1 million for charity. Fresh off a trip to Ireland, Damian’s back in the grind—cycle three, day three—battling the aftermath of COVID, jet lag, and a nine-day training hiatus. What started as a triumphant return quickly turned into a war against fatigue, fever, and a body screaming for rest. But Damian’s not here to fold. Day one kicked off cycle three with a bang, only for day two to deliver a brutal reality check: coughing, stiffness, and a positive COVID test. Undeterred, he hit the gym for a “light and hot” session—bear crawls and glute ham raises that torched his body and soul. Halfway through, he nearly tapped out, but clawed through the essentials. By day three, an upper body strength session scored an 8.8 RQS, and he’s feeling “a hundred times better.” This episode is a gritty testament to resilience, the healing power of sweat, and the will to keep pushing when the odds stack up. In This Episode: ✔️ COVID comeback : How Damian turned sickness and jet lag into fuel for cycle three ✔️ Light and hot magic : Bear crawls and glute hammers with minimal rest—simple, brutal, effective ✔️ Strength unleashed : Smashing cycle two targets in just three days of cycle three ✔️ Running reset : Upping the running frequency with a cautious eye on recovery ✔️ Road ahead : Tackling gym disruptions with trips to Sydney and Ireland looming 💡 Take Action: Want to fuel Damian’s mission to conquer Ireland’s coast?

Day 81: Take it from me. It's a good thing to keep striving for more from yourself
Day 81 of preparing for the Million Euro Lap —a 3,000-kilometer run around Ireland’s coast to raise €1 million for charity. Today, Damian Browne faces the final session of cycle two, a run he’s been dodging all week. Fear of another breakdown—rooted in 80 days of nagging Achilles and calf issues—has him reluctant to push. But with a hike in Ireland looming in two days, he laces up and goes for it. What unfolds is a gritty victory: 40 minutes of running, split into two-minute sprints (up to 13 km/h, his fastest since injury) and longer five-minute efforts at a quicker pace than last week. That’s nine minutes more volume than the previous session, with every variable—speed, duration, intensity—cranked up. The Achilles holds, the body responds, and the mind wrestles with doubt but emerges intact. Tune in for a raw take on overcoming fear, inching toward mastery, and the quiet power of persistence. In This Episode: ✔️ Fear’s shadow : How past breakdowns fuel reluctance to run—and how Damian faces it ✔️ Run recap : 40 minutes total—two-minute sprints at 13 km/h, five-minute efforts, 9 minutes more than last week ✔️ Achilles watch : Paper-mache mornings vs. a solid session—what’s real, what’s phantom? ✔️ Strength & lean gains : Visible body comp shifts and a plan for more mobility in cycle three 💡 Take Action: Want to fuel Damian’s mission to conquer Ireland’s coast?

Day 79: The Fight You Don’t Always Win
Day 79 of preparing to run 3,000 kilometers around Ireland’s coast—the Million Euro Lap to raise €1 million for charity. Today, Damian Browne is mid-battle: not just with a brutal bike session, but with his own mind. Recorded amidst the chaos of rescuing his 1-year-old from a mud kitchen, this episode is podcasting at its rawest—an unfiltered dive into a day where performance goals clashed with fatigue, and the mental fight didn’t go his way. Week four of cycle two brought an “almighty” bike session: 20x20-second power endurance sprints (250 meters each) followed by a planned 10x800-meter block. Damian’s chasing higher watts, faster speeds, and more volume—pushing from 170 meters in week one to 250 today. But after heavy legs yesterday, his nervous system faltered. A max speed attempt on rep three missed the mark (1:16.8 vs. a 1:15.8 goal), and the next 17 reps became a slog. Halfway through, he pulled the plug. Tune in for a candid reckoning with failure, the allure of excuses, and the bittersweet lessons of losing the fight. In This Episode: ✔️ Bike beast mode : 20x20-second sprints at 250 meters—chasing max speed and power output ✔️ Fatigue strikes : Heavy legs and a sluggish nervous system derail the session ✔️ The mental crucible : Wrestling with reasonable excuses—and choosing to stop ✔️ Performance vs. purpose : Why finishing matters more than perfect numbers ✔️ Lessons in loss : How failing the fight fuels growth, self-mastery, and resilience 💡 Take Action: Want to fuel Damian’s mission to conquer Ireland’s coast?

Day 52: In a very frustrating few days
Day 52 of training for the 3,000-kilometer run around Ireland has been a frustrating one. The second training cycle started strong, with week one feeling motivational and high-quality. However, a family break disrupted momentum and attempts to fit in training before the trip fell short. The goal remains: to steadily progress, avoid overtraining, and regain belief in the mission. With patience and consistency, improvements will come. The challenge is balancing ambition with restraint, learning from past mistakes, and trusting the process. Key Takeaways: Training disruptions can lead to significant mental frustration. Balancing personal life with an intense training schedule is a constant challenge.

With 12 tents and 3 toilets, the camp is a temporary home for 16 adventure enthusiasts, including Darren, Marie, and Frank. Damian introduces us to the diverse group of trekkers and sets the stage for the connections and stories that will unfold throughout the climb. The day's hike led them through a lush rainforest, with constant uphill terrain challenging the trekkers. The camaraderie among the group and the absence of digital distractions create a unique atmosphere for sharing experiences and forming bonds. At the end of their first day, they reached Base Camp 1, standing at an impressive 3,000 meters above sea level. Damian reflects on the beauty of the rainforest, the sense of ancient history it conveys, and the slow and steady pace of their ascent. Damian also shares a personal concern about his footwear, revealing how the wrong choice of hiking boots could have spelled trouble for him. Luckily, his alternate boots proved comfortable for the day's journey. However, the episode takes a turn as we hear from Darren, who experienced severe stomach issues during the trek. Darren's struggle with discomfort and illness highlights the unpredictable challenges of high-altitude trekking. Despite the difficulties faced by Darren, the group's spirits remain high, and they look forward to the adventures that lie ahead.

Double Ascent: Kilimanjaro Challenge Begins & Meeting the Team
In the first episode of Deep Roots Season 4, host Damien sets the stage for a new adventure and challenge: climbing Mount Kilimanjaro not once, but twice. He shares the history of Kilimanjaro's discovery and the myths and legends surrounding it. Damien is joined by three fellow adventurers: Frank, Darren, and Marie, each with their own unique reasons for taking on this challenge. Frank, who is unprepared and unexcited for the climb, decides to embrace the adventure without overthinking it. Darren, based in the Netherlands, sees this as an opportunity to have his own story to tell, especially with the news of his partner's pregnancy. Marie, inspired by Damien's journey, seizes the chance to challenge herself and be the best she can be. The episode takes us through Damien's previous experience climbing Kilimanjaro, where he faced exhaustion, acute mountain sickness, and a challenging descent. Despite the hardships, he is excited to take on the mountain again, this time with a group of like-minded individuals. Join Damien and his fellow adventurers on this thrilling journey to the roof of Africa, as they push their limits and share their unique perspectives on climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. Season 4 of Deep Roots promises to be an inspiring and eye-opening adventure.

Day 31: Camp 1 to Camp 2
“Let’s see if I can get to the top of this hill without being tired” is the game I play with myself to keep my exertion levels under control. I’m so wired to push that this default setting needs constant management and close concentration. It’s one of the paradoxes of this pursuit that effort can and will be detrimental to your desired outcome. To help with this, my internal narrative can often be heard to say, “Go slow Damian, ..... good.......now slower” -Listen along as Damian has a day of personal change.

Day 30: Camp 1
14 and half hours of deep blissful sleep! I would never have guessed I could spend so long in a sleeping bag. That should help efforts to reboot the body post yesterday’s icefall climb. Shortly after Pingju arrived at my tent with some hot water for breakfast, I recognize some familiar voices from the comfort of my sleeping bag. My weary body is reluctant to rise until @climber_tenji sticks his head in to say hello. He and my ‘old’ team of Ryan, April & David are halfway through leg 1 of their summit push, moving onto Camp 2 now. Soon I’m up, out & catching up with my old teammates over their early morning noodle soups. It’s great to see them and feel genuine sincerity in their remarks about seeing me back on the mountain after Covid. There’s plenty of activity around and a buzz in the air as a few more climbers from CTSS have also landed into Camp 1 including @ruida.su , Michael and Dr Mike along with their guides. Energy is flowing. One by one, climber and guide move out and begin the second portion of their aggressive Day 1, pushing to Camp 2. In a much less excited and nervous fashion Pingju and I follow in their footsteps for about an hour, leisurely heading out to a point above Camp 1 for some ‘active rest’. With the sun now beating down on the Western Cwm I’m happy we don’t go far and enjoy the hour or so we spend perched above camp surveying the magnificent surroundings. I think a lot about the future, warmly. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Day 10: EBC to Pumori BC (5740m)
It started with one of the worst nights of sleep I have ever experienced. The sweats, nausea, headaches, constant vivid nightmares (mad shit about guides, sherpas, mountain life, permits and not getting kicked off the mountain), diarrhea, and lastly, Cheyne - Stokes breathing. This is basically where you stop breathing momentarily mid-sleep. A disconcerting way to wake yourself up. A tough night on the mountain for Damian. Subscribe now, so as not to miss an episode.

Day 4: Namche (3440m) to Debouche (3800m)
A day that can be divided straight down the middle into two contrasting halves. A rushed and bouncing concentration on non-negotiables that need to be done each morning before we start our hike leads to a disturbing and unfocused mental state for the first few hours of today’s journey from Namche to Debouche. To add to this unhelpful state, there were two elements of today’s route that frustrated me. Firstly, it lulled to into a false sense of comfort due to the flat bordering on a very mild incline, reminiscent of a Sunday stroll in Coole Park, then out of nowhere a steep incline. There you were strolling along admiring the incredible views and forgetting on some level what you’re here to do and the next thing you know your heart rate is hitting 170 as you unexpectedly climb a bunch of steep steps. A cunning tactic to agitate a mind. Secondly, there was a long 45-minute descent to cross the river again that played havoc with my knees. Today I moved poorly from the off and this section accentuated that hugely, causing me to berate myself for not focusing fully and well enough on my morning activation and stretch. Once across the river, we stopped at a ramshackle old tea house. Over a ginger tea and two overpriced Snickers, I identified my wandering mind, had some words with myself, and reset. It helped that the next 45 mins to 1 hour were straight up an aggressive hill, therefore I could dial in a deep concentration on position, my go-to controllable. As I said in my last post, I love these moments of work, striving to achieve something important to me. This hour of hard graft uphill paved the way for a much better second half of the day, which accumulated in a visit to the colorful Tengboche monastery. After a flying visit due to the caretaker monk having to deliver some bamboo to Debouche for an upcoming Puja, we strolled the last gentle 20 minutes downhill to Debouche and found our lovely lodge for the night, Rivendell.

Day 1: Lukla (2800m) to Phakding (2600m)
After landing in Lukla and meeting my guide Anup, we realised one of my bags hadn’t made the flight and would be coming on the next one in an hour or so. Nobody seemed to stressed about this so we found a tea house with a great view of the infamous runway and had some breakfast. Sure enough the duffle arrived as promised along with our porter who committed to carrying both my bags! If that wasn’t impressive enough I was soon to realise he carries them strapped to his forehead Anup & I were soon on our way in what turned out to be a very gentle 2.5 hour trek to Phakding. What took me by surprise was that it was most downhill. The route was quiet and peaceful with a beautiful whistling wind circling the valley plus a hot sun for company if you stopped too long. We crossed paths with yaks, donkeys & mules, troops of dogs, fellow trekkers, locals slowly going about their days and the warming sight of full families of western tourists returning form Namche or further afield. We arrived into Phakding for an early lunch in our quaint lodgings. With my knees screaming at me from travel stiffness and all the downhill, I took to the garden for some stretching much to the amusement of some passing locals. The rest of the day was made up of napping, eating, more stretching, a full gear check with Anup and a 30 mins walk to the far side of the small town to the first of many suspension bridges we will cross over the next few days.

Q&A #3
In this episode Damian answer's listeners questions. Here's a favour of what you asked: Why was it not acceptable, even necessary to 'horse' 3 Mars Bars into yourself considering the energy demands of what you were doing every day? Would love to hear more about your exact diet on the ocean? How did you prepare for the loneliness of it all or was the physical and mental challenge so great that it took up all of your focus? How did you approach sponsorship? Did you have a 'Wilson' or version of him that gave you comfort in the darker times? See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information. Hosted on Acast.

Craziest Day of My Life
Day 14: Imagine being woken up as you are catapulted, face first, into the side of a solid wood cabin during a capsize as a ferocious wave turns your boat over 360 degrees in a raging storm. Welcome to Day 14 on the Atlantic, also known as the craziest day of my life. This was a day spent at the edges of life as I battled my wits, fears and mother nature. 2 full capsizes, one where I hung onto the boat with one hand as I rode the capsize 180 degrees under water, calmly repeating to myself a practiced mantra for the very scenario, "squeeze your grip". 3 more capsizes were narrowly avoided as I stared a face full of Atlantic Ocean in the eye and Darien teetered on the brink but held firm, much like my grip on a vital piece of equipment. Then there was the whale. The curious, playful adolescent who revived me from a minor state of shock with its visit and subsequently stirred emotions I didn't know existed as it circled my boat and made eye contact with me on one of its final passes. Simply, a day I will never forget.

Rebound
Days 2, 3 & 4 - What is in this week's episode? Mental redirects, clarity on what had gone wrong on Day 1, learning to live, the solo mistake, losing the fight to sleep, the mentality, "I want it to be as hard as it can possibly be" and why, not ungrateful but, the trade winds secret, a BGAN, and building an association between hard and it's rich rewards.

Shook To My Core
Day 1, the day everything that could go wrong, went wrong. After 588 days of preparation, plus 2 extra days because the start of the race, the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge, got put back due to weather conditions, I pushed my 7 metre (23 ft) ocean rowing boat away from the marina in La Gomera (Canary Islands) and rowed into the unknown. I felt prepared for many things, but I was not ready for what happened after only 6 hours into a 5000km trans-Atlantic crossing To be apart of the journey and get in touch with the podcast, contact on: Instagram > https://www.instagram.com/deep_roots_podcast/ >https://www.instagram.com/auld_stock/?hl=en Website > https://www.damianbrowne.com/ Produced by baLORE Media Executive Producer: Niall Killeney Taylor See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
