She's the head instructor and leads fitness programming at Peloton. with our

familiar with our guest today Robin Arzon. She's also an ultra marathoner,

two-time New York Times best-selling author,

0:18.5

who's made it her life's mission to redefine and rethink possibility through movement.

0:22.7

Today we're going to talk about everything related to fitness, exercise, and training,

0:26.6

but we're also going to dive into motivation, mental strength, designing an ideal life, and so much more.
