Big things rarely happen because of one massive effort.

They happen because the smaller things keep adding up.

If you want to build the belief that “I can do this,” give yourself evidence.

Keep showing up. Build it bit by bit.

A walk.
A short run.
The session you nearly didn’t do.
Starting again after a week that went completely off-plan.

Most of it probably won’t look extraordinary on its own — though sometimes the location might.

But keep stacking them, and you start going somewhere.

That’s kind of the point of CYE.

Keep moving. Keep adding. See where it takes you.

“I think it shows that ordinary people can do extraordinary things. You don’t have to be elite. You don’t have to be an elite athlete. You don’t have to be sponsored. You don’t have to be professional.”

It’s what we truly believe at Chase Your Extraordinary - and exactly why we want to share these stories.

Our Episode 3 guest, Sam Douglas epitomises that idea.

We loved hearing how Sam saw other people doing things, felt that little spark of maybe I can, and then had the curiosity to go and find out what she might be capable of when she backed herself.

No grand master plan, just curiosity, consistency, a willingness to give things a go… and one extraordinary adventure gradually leading to another.

To hear the how, what, why and where Sam chases her own extraordinary, listen to or watch Chase Your Extraordinary Podcast, Episode 3 with Sam Douglas.

The workout you actually do is better than the perfect workout you don’t.

Your walks, jogs and runs all count.
Any distance. Any speed.

You don’t need to build movement around your perfect week. Build it around the life you actually have.

Every bit of movement moves you a little further along your adventure on the CYE app.

No perfect plan required.

Just keep moving.

To start your virtual adventure, download the app and start where you are.

Episode 3 of the CYE podcast, we’re in conversation with Sam Douglas.

Sam has run every day for more than 1,650 days, climbed Kilimanjaro and crossed 209 miles of Iceland.

But what I love about Sam’s story is that none of this started with a big plan.

She hated sport.
She thought three miles was about as far as she could run.
Then she just kept going.

Some days, that means 12½ minutes.
Some days, it means doing enough to keep the promise she made to herself.
And over time, what felt possible started to change.

A 10k became a half marathon.
A run streak became 1,650+ days.
And one day, watching someone talk about crossing Iceland, Sam thought:

“That sounds like something I could do.”

209 miles later, she’d done it.

This conversation is about consistency, ordinary people doing extraordinary things, and how showing up again and again can quietly change what you believe you’re capable of.

A mahoosive congratulations to Luke Merrett - RunAustralia FINISHER.

Luke has been one of CYE’s early supporters and has properly embraced what we hoped these adventures could be.

It’s not another thing that has to take over your life - it sits alongside it.

Luke has run races of all different distances, trained, adventured and just kept doing his thang - while his RunAustralia challenge quietly ticked away in the background.

An activity here. A race there. Another few kilometres added.

Then our weekly update reminded him to…

“look how far you’ve come.”

For Luke, that little bit of personal accountability became part of the challenge too. Keep moving. Keep adding. Keep going.

And alongside the kilometres came our little 5-minute Headroom reads - a chance to think about things like your WHY, motivation, consistency and what actually keeps you moving when the initial enthusiasm has disappeared.

No single heroic effort got Luke across Australia.

Lots and lots of ordinary efforts did.

And now he’s only gone and finished the bloody thing 🙌🥳👏

Huge congratulations, Luke. We’ve loved having you along for the ride.

And judging by that arm… we’re pretty sure this won’t be your last adventure.

In fact, Luke’s already started our next challenge - and it’s a doozy too.

We’ll share more about that one shortly.

Could you be next?

Our third Chase Your Extraordinary Podcast episode lands this Saturday 22nd August.

And this time, we’re talking to the brilliant Sam Douglas 💥🥰

Sam has run every day for more than 1,650 days, climbed Kilimanjaro and crossed 209 miles of Iceland.

But this conversation begins somewhere much more ordinary…

With a woman who hated sport and once thought she would never run more than three miles.

What followed wasn’t one enormous decision or a grand master plan.

She simply kept showing up.

We talk about consistency, fitting adventure around everyday life, making the difficult days manageable and gradually discovering that you may be capable of far more than you think.

What does ‘Chase Your Extraordinary’ actually mean?

Extraordinary doesn’t have to mean running an ultramarathon.

It doesn’t have to mean smashing a PB, following the perfect training plan or being the fittest person in the room.

Sometimes it’s getting outside when you nearly didn’t.

Going for a walk at lunchtime.

Running your first kilometre.

Getting back to it after life got in the way.

We created Chase Your Extraordinary because we believe movement should be about more than performance.

It’s about finding something that gets you moving — and then finding a way to keep going.

Because the small things count.

And when you keep doing them, they can add up to something pretty extraordinary.

What does YOUR extraordinary look like?

IT’S LIVE - Episode 2 of the Chase Your Extraordinary Podcast, with the truly marvellous Mimi Anderson, is out now!

Mimi shares how running changed her perception of what was possible. It changed the way she saw herself.

Being strong became more important than being skinny.
Each challenge gave her more evidence of what she could cope with.
And when running was no longer available to her in the same way, she had to work out who she was without it.

And perhaps that’s the bit we love most:
Running was what Mimi did.
Resilient was who she was.

This conversation is about endurance,yes.

But it’s also about identity, confidence, adapting, learning, starting again, and discovering the strengths you have developed along the way.

Basically, all the wonderfully messy human stuff behind doing extraordinary things.

Episode 2 of the CYE podcast we’re in conversation with Mimi Anderson.

There are the extraordinary things Mimi has done…

Running through deserts, jungles and the Arctic.
Cycling through Europe, UK, USA
Taking on enormous distances.
Setting records.
Showing other women what might be possible.

And then there is the wonderfully human woman behind all of that.

The woman who has struggled.
Had terrible days.
Made mistakes.
Faced the heartbreak of stopping.
And had to find another way forward when running was no longer available to her in the same way.

Yes, this conversation is about Mimi’s world record endurance feats.

But it’s also about learning to value strength and what your body can do, adapting when life changes, and having the courage to take another small step - even when you’re not quite sure where it will lead… something we can all relate too.
