Triathlons.  Marathons. Hybrid races. \nOrdinary professionals are training like athletes, travelling across the country to compete, and building entire social lives around endurance sport. Somewhere along the way, being an athlete became a badge of honour.\nFounders started rewarding it. Networks are forged around it. \nIn this episode, we unpack the rise of what we are calling the “fitness warrior”. This is a new professional archetype where work follows the same logic as sport: optimise, train, perform.\nYou will hear from:Adnan Adeeb, who built Devil's Circuit, India’s first obstacle race and later launched the Yodha raceDeepak Raj, who brought Ironman 70.3 and Hyrox to IndiaArjun Vaidya, founder and investor Diksha Dwivedi, who runs Mumbai’s Founder’s Run ClubAnd employees and operators who are living this shift in real timeWe look at what’s driving this obsession with endurance and what it says about how India’s startup workplaces now hire, network, and define success, in a world where careers feel increasingly uncertain.\nTune in.\n-\n*Zerodha’s perennial fund Rainmatter Capital is an investor in The Ken.\nThank you for listening to 90,000 Hours.
