Machen Sie es sich bequem mit Unbehaglichkeit – die Geschichte eines 23-jährigen Tradie, der seinen Körper "10 Mal durch die Hölle und zurück" gebracht hat, um zu beweisen, dass alles möglich ist, wenn Sie Ihre eigenen Barrieren überwinden.
Nedd Brockmann hat keine Angst davor, groß zu träumen. Frisch nach fünfzig Marathons in fünfzig Tagen hatte der dreiundzwanzig Jährige eine Idee: einen 4000-Kilometer-Lauf durch Australien, durchschnittlich 100 Kilometer pro Tag mit dem Ziel, ihn in der schnellsten bekannten Zeit von 43 Tagen zu absolvieren. Er jagte weder Ruhm noch öffentliche Anerkennung. Er wollte nur seine Grenzen testen und dabei eine Million Dollar für Obdachlosigkeit aufbringen.
Die meisten sagten, er sei verrückt, andere behaupteten, es sei nicht möglich. Aber wer Nedd kennt, wusste nie an ihm zu zweifeln. Sie haben verstanden, dass dies jemand ist, der alles tun wird, um das zu beenden, was er begonnen hat, und dass er es immer erledigt, wenn er sich etwas verschrieben hat.
Es war fast unmöglich, die Denkweise von jemandem zu verstehen, der für solche Leistungen des freiwilligen Leidens prädisponiert ist – bis jetzt. Mit seinem Marken-Humor und seinem ungefilterten Stil erinnert Nedd an die Lektionen auf Sportfeldern, die Disziplin kultiviert haben, an die Rückschläge, die seine Entschlossenheit getestet haben, und an die Beziehungen, die sich als am wichtigsten erwiesen haben: diejenigen, die die Bedeutung harter Arbeit vermittelt haben, niemals aufzugeben und immer großzügig zurückzugeben.

Author: Nedd Brockmann Format: Paperback Number of Pages: 352 Get comfortable with being uncomfortable - the story of a 23-year-old tradie who put his body 'through hell and back 10 times' to prove that anything is possible when you break past your own barriers. Longlisted for the Indie Book Awards 2024 Nedd Brockmann isn't afraid to dream big. Fresh after running fifty marathons in fifty days, the twenty-three-year-old had an idea: a 4000-kilometre run across Australia, averaging 100 kilometres per day with the aim of completing it in the fastest known time of 43 days. He wasn't chasing fame or public recognition. He just wanted to test his limits and raise a million dollars for homelessness in the process. Most said he was crazy, others claimed it couldn't be done. But those who know Nedd knew never to doubt him. They understood that this is someone who will do whatever it takes to finish what he started, and that when he commits his mind to something, he always gets it done. Understanding the mindset of someone predisposed to such feats of voluntary suffering has been nearly impossible - until now. With his trademark humour and unfiltered style, Nedd recalls the lessons learned on sporting fields that cultivated discipline, the setbacks that tested his resolve, and the relationships that proved most important of all: those who instilled the importance of hard work, of never giving up, and to always give back generously.
