What drives someone to run 620 kilometres through the Arctic — where the air burns your lungs, sleep is a luxury and the silence forces you to meet yourself?
Aaron Crook is the winner of the 6633 Arctic Ultra, one of the toughest endurance races on Earth. But this conversation isn’t about medals or records - it’s about the mindset, pain and purpose behind it all.
We spoke about what the Arctic stripped away, how he learned to master his mind when his body wanted to quit and the deeper reasons why he runs - beyond competition, beyond ego, beyond the finish line.
This is a story about resilience, self-discovery, and what it really means to go to the edge and come back stronger.
