“What’s Your Mountain?”
Gasping for air, Mitch Lewis found himself on his hands and knees at 28,500 feet, in minus -40 degree temperatures and pummelled by 40 mph winds. Only a few hours from summiting Mount Everest, Mitch couldn’t breathe, his oxygen tank was empty and he was trapped in the middle of an Into Thin Air-like storm that would soon claim the life of another climber. Would the merciless, raging elements claim his life too?
Mitch Lewis is one of a celebrated few people in the world to run a marathon and summit the seven highest mountains on all seven continents. And yet his story is far more than the death-defying escapades of a world-class adventurer. At 45, Mitch was an ordinary out-of-shape guy, stuck in a rut with a gut, dogged by a nagging, restless feeling that there was more to life than this. With the impulsive decision to run a marathon in his city, his entire world turned upside down and he found himself on an epic quest; to complete a marathon and climb the highest summit on all seven continents.
His message is simple: if a middle-aged, out-of-shape guy can reinvent his life by running seven gruelling marathons and summiting the highest mountains, you can achieve your goals and dreams too. And it doesn’t matter if what you dream of is a small tweak or a radical do-over of the life you are living in today. In addition to his riveting story, Mitch shares his Twelve Principles for Climbing Your Personal Everest, revealing what he’s learned along the way about goal-setting, perseverance, collaboration and more. In doing so, he provides a practical, life-changing, and sometimes humorous look at the things that keep us climbing towards greatness despite the challenges and obstacles that life throws our way.
