WHAT DRIVES DAVID
All of the awards, medals, accolades and magazine articles mean nothing to David. That’s not why he does what he does. Although David has raised a lot of money and awareness for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, none of this recognition is relevant to him. He’s not trying to be number one in the world. He’s not interested in how many races he’s run. He doesn’t keep track of the miles he’s gone. There’s no scoreboard.
Instead, it’s all about achieving his personal best and pushing himself well past his comfort zone. David chooses to run the toughest races and put himself through some of the hardest military training programs in the country for no other reason than to see what he’s made of. For him, physical and mental suffering are a journey of self-discovery, no other experience makes him feel more clear, focused and alive.
Goggins is the epitome of true heroism. In fact, he is the only member of the U.S. Armed Forces to complete SEAL training, U.S. Army Ranger School, and Air Force Tactical Air Controller training. With his diversified experience, Goggins offers a new perspective to accomplish seemingly impossible feats.
In addition to his world class training in the Armed Forces, Goggins has completed over 60 ultra-marathons, triathlons, and ultra-triathlons. He even held the Guinness World Record for pull-ups completing 4,030 in 17 hours. The mindset behind Goggins’ countless achievements is a drive to become his best self.
