Slaying the Clowns: A Half Century of Fears Shattered in 52 Hours (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781987700367)

Do you yearn to find your true mental, physical and emotional capacity in life? Eric Logan did, and he searched for an event that would challenge every fiber of his being and reveal his true character and capability. He found it in Kokoro, a 52 hour extreme fitness event originally designed for Navy SEAL and other special operator candidates. Eric signed up and attacked the event the year he turned 50. Kokoro is the brainchild of Mark Divine, Founder and CEO of Unbeatable Mind and SEALFIT, author of Way of the SEAL and Unbeatable Mind and Commander (Ret), US Navy SEALS. Kokoro is a 52 hour physical, mental and emotional team endurance event modeled after the SEAL's Hell Week. Eric trained at Commander Divine's CrossFit affiliate, US Crossfit, for 5 years before attempting Kokoro. Kokoro participants have historically had a 30% success rate. Kokoro, and the broader SEALFIT program, integrate physical, mental, emotional, intuitional and awareness training to develop elite-level warriors, leaders and teams. Eric is the Chief Operating Officer of COBRA PUMA Golf in Carlsbad, California, and he desired to enter the event and gain as much insight as possible about his capacity as an athlete, a leader, a husband and a father. Eric's teammates at Kokoro 42 (the 42nd iteration of the event) included a 2 time Golden Gloves boxing champion, a 7 time Spartan Race champion, an ultramarathon racer and a professional hockey player, so he had his work cut out for him, attempting to keep up with his teammates and add value to the team. While he wasn't the fittest athlete that toed the line for the start of Kokoro 42 in April, 2016, he had a clear and strong "Why" for attempting the event and a drive that would keep him from quitting. Come walk beside Eric and learn some of the lessons that he learned during Kokoro 42: - How to face your fears - How to face uncertainty - How your faith can support you and deliver you from life's darkest moments - How to deal with life's roller coaster-managing the inevitable ups and downs without getting too high or low - How to learn your strengths and use them daily for the benefit of you and others - How to learn your weaknesses, how to work around them and hopefully, how to turn them into strengths - How to be helpful in all situations - How to be an encouragement to others - How to find close life partners (Swim Buddies) who challenge and encourage you - How to operate well as a member of a team, with your family, your workmates, your athletic event teammates - Finally, and most importantly, how to learn that your capacity for life, love and work is so much bigger than you ever imagined Ready to go? Hooyah!
