If there's one thing Nedd Brockmann wants to you do today, it's keep showing up. At just 25 years old, Nedd has achieved an extroadinary amount. His most well-known feat was in 2022 when he ran across Australia - from Perth to Bondi - in just 46 days. 

He joins Ant in-studio to reflect on the lessons from those long and torturous days. He shares how he harnessed his mindset to push through pain barriers, and makes the choice to be positive every single day - even in the toughest of times.

Head Game

Nedd Brockmann’s Toughest Moment in His Run Across Australia

Content Warning: This episode includes discussion of suicide and mental health issues.

On this episode of Head Game, a look back at some of Ant's conversations with people with a passion for going the distance - literally. All of these guests have pounded the pavement, the beaches, the bush and everything in between. We start with Pat Farmer, who ran from the North Pole to the South Pole in 2011. The Nedd Brockman who went viral with his run across Australia while raising millions for Australia's homeless. And finally, Brit runner Jack Pitcher, who had planned to run the the circumference of Australia until a car crash derailed his plans, and he took on the Australian outback in a coast-to-coast trek. The mental determination of all three men helped them achieve what many might have thought impossible. Their insights are invaluable.

This week, we're taking a look back at Ant's conversations with former soldiers, who have faced enormous challenges while working as part of the military. First up, Ant's chat with fellow SAS alum and good friend, Ollie Ollerton on his time with the Royal Marine Commandos. Then, elite Navy clearance diver Paul de Gelder on the day a shark attack claimed his hand and leg while working in Sydney Harbour. And finally, Australian soldier Damien Tomlinson on the day an IED caused the amputation of both his legs. These men are the epitome of the military mindset.

Then Jackson Warne on the day he received the call that his father Shane had passed away, and how he pulled himself through the heartbreak. And finally, Jason McCartney on the horror he endured during the 2002 Bali bombings.
